Aberrometry (ITRACE)

Aberrometry is an advanced diagnostic test that measures the optical imperfections in the eye, known as aberrations, which can affect the quality of vision beyond simple near sightedness or farsightedness. The iTrace system combines wavefront aberrometry with corneal topography to provide a comprehensive analysis of how light travels through the eye, helping eye care specialists diagnose visual issues more precisely.
