Reichert Ultramatic Keratometer

The Reichert Ultramatic Keratometer is a used manual corneal curvature measurement instrument built to the exacting optical standards Reichert has long applied to its ophthalmic product line. It is used to determine corneal power and astigmatism by measuring the radius of curvature across the principal meridians, information that is central to contact lens fitting, refractive surgery planning, and general anterior eye assessment. This keratometer employs the established mires and doubling prism method, offering the examiner precise alignment and focus controls on a stable mechanical base. Its construction reflects the durability and repeatable accuracy that made Reichert instruments a preferred choice in optometric and ophthalmic practices, and many of these units remain in daily clinical use decades after their original manufacture thanks to their straightforward, serviceable design. Provided here as a used instrument in good working order, this Ultramatic Keratometer is ready to take its place in an active exam lane. It gives practices a cost effective way to add or maintain manual keratometry, supporting clinicians who want direct, hands on control over corneal curvature measurement alongside their subjective refraction workflow.
