What is the Orbscan?

The Orbscan is a very special test that helps the doctors at ICON determine if you are a candidate for LASIK. It is the only test that can show us the shape of the posterior surface of your cornea.
It is recommended that you do not have LASIK with out this test.

"The Orbscan II acquires over 9000 data points in 1.5 seconds to meticulously map the entire corneal surface (11 mm), and analyze elevation and curvature measurements on both the anterior and posterior surfaces of the cornea."1 This level of analysis is absolutely impossible for a doctor to conduct without the Orbscan.

Cornea Thickness
The Orbscan also gives us your corneal thickness measurement of your cornea. Since LASIK changes the shape of your cornea by removing tissue we do not want to make your cornea too thin. The average cornea is 515 microns thick. Our rule is to not make your corneas total thickness no thinner than 400 microns, or less than 250 microns under the flap. This is best measured with the Orbscan.
