Axial Length Measurement
Accurate Measurement for Healthy Eye Growth
Axial length measurement is a quick, non-invasive test that determines the distance from the front to the back of the eye. By knowing the exact length of the eye, your optometrist can monitor growth patterns, detect unusual changes early, and provide personalized care.
This is especially important for children, whose eyes grow rapidly and may continue elongating beyond the expected age. Excessive growth can increase the risk of vision problems later in life.
For families interested in slowing myopia progression, axial length measurement plays a key role.You can learn more about Myopia Control to see how this data guides strategies for long-term eye health.
