Abstract
An ophthalmometer measurement system employs two flat glass plates which move in opposite pivoted directions, to determine the distance between two mirror images on the cornea. The pivot suspensions and pivotal-displacement mechanism are free of play and account for a three-fold improvement in precision of measurement. Provision is made for adjustment to compensate for manufacturing tolerances, in glassplate thickness and mechanical-parts manufacture.
