Corneal pachymetry in Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital
About the clinic
Corneal pachymetry measures the thickness of the cornea and is a key diagnostic for glaucoma screening and refractive surgery planning. At Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, this examination is available as part of a premium screening package. The diagnostic bundle typically runs around $70 (2,300 THB) and is performed at an AACI-accredited facility with over 25 years of experience.
Examination Details
The diagnostic process measures the central corneal thickness in microns to identify structural risks or health changes. The clinic performs this test as an outpatient day-case, meaning the patient leaves the same day. Findings are available immediately after the screening. An ophthalmologist reviews all measurements to interpret the results and check for abnormalities.
What the Screening Package Includes
- Central corneal thickness measurement. Determines the exact thickness of the cornea.
- OCT analysis. Scans the optic nerve and retinal nerve fiber layer for early signs of damage.
- Specular microscopy. Counts corneal endothelial cells to check the health of the inner corneal layer.
- Digital fundus photography. Captures detailed images of the retina and blood vessels.
- Slit lamp examination. A physical eye inspection performed by a specialist.
- Intraocular pressure measurement. Checks internal eye pressure, which relates to corneal thickness data.
- Visual acuity and refraction. Standard vision testing and eye power measurement by an optometrist.
Preparation and Setting
Patients should prepare for pupil dilation during the comprehensive exam. This process often causes blurred vision and sensitivity to light for about 4 to 6 hours. The clinic recommends bringing sunglasses and arranging transportation, as driving is unsafe immediately after the test. The facility holds AACI accreditation, confirming it follows international safety protocols for diagnostic eye care.
