Corneal Topography: A 3D Map of Your Cornea

Corneal topography is a key part of our diagnostic process when we’re fitting a custom pair of scleral lenses, assessing corneal irregularities like keratoconus, or helping you learn if laser eye surgery is an option for you.

This quick, noninvasive scan creates a 3D map of the front surface of the eye and lets us deliver you precisely the care your eyes need.

What to Expect in a Corneal Topography Scan

During your corneal topography scan, you will sit in front of our Medmont Corneal Topographer and rest your chin against it to allow us to get clear, crisp imagery. We will ask you to look at a ringed target inside the topographer while we take the images. Your scan only takes a few seconds, and nothing touches your eye during the process.

Always a great, professional, and knowledgeable experience for myself and my family, whether it’s a regular eye exam or a diabetic exam. I’ve been a patient at Northern Lights for over 25 years, and I’ve always received the quality customer service I’ve come to expect because that’s what I’ve always received. Great selection of glasses and sunglasses at competitive pricing. I highlight recommend Dr. Gorrell and his staff.

Jill N.

Had been having headaches and fatigue for months when it was suggested I have my eyes checked. Has not had my eyes checked in ten years. I was referred to see Dr. Guy Gorrell by a good friend. Dr. Gorrell was professional and very thorough in his assessment of my eyes and overall vision. In the end Dr. Gorrell was able to diagnose that my eyes did in fact need a prescription lens and my headaches and fatigue were likely due to my straining my eyes to see properly. His friendly and helpful staff assisted me in choosing my frames and in a very short period of time my glasses were available. Since having the prescription glasses my headaches and fatigue have stopped and I am very pleased. I highly recommend Dr. Gorrell and his staff at Northern Lights Optometry.
