The Model 5010/5015 Printout - Zeiss Acuitus 5000 User Manual

The Model 5010/5015 Printout

The Acuitus does not store a patient's measurements; you must print them out after each examination. You
may print after each eye is measured, but most practitioners prefer to have the results for both eyes on a
single printout. (See sample printout)
Acuitus 5010/5015 results can be printed out in the complete format shown below or with some or all
options suppressed. The name and date line can be suppressed, as can the multiple readings and the
graphic. Use the setup screens to select or suppress options (see pages 4-5). You may also choose to use
either standard paper or an adhesive label that may be affixed to a patient's chart.

Graphic (optional). The printout graphic depicts the focal length of the
eye and the position of the image relative to the retina in a myopic,
hyperopic, myopic-astigmatic, or hyperopic-astigmatic eye, depending on
the patient's refraction. This can be used to explain the refraction to the
patient.
Central Keratometry Values
The apical K value is derived from the central and peripheral
keratometry measurements and indicates the radius of curvature at the
apex of the cornea.
Shape. A positive shape value means the cornea is flatter peripherally
than centrally. A negative shape value means the cornea is flatter
centrally than peripherally.
Refraction Results, Left Eye
Refraction and keratometry results for the left eye are presented in the
same format.
