Veeco Hosts Webinar on Surface Profilometry

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
TUCSON, Ariz., June 15, 2010 — As part of its ongoing series of live webinars on three-dimensional, non-contact surface profilometry, Veeco Instruments Inc. will host a free online seminar titled, “Non-Contact, 3-D Optical Surface Profilometry for Ophthalmic Manufacturing,” today at both 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. PST.

The one-hour presentation will offer new enabling metrologies in both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and 3-D surface profilometry for R&D, QA/QC and production environments in the ophthalmology industry.

The ophthalmic contact lens and intraocular lens (IOL) markets have become competitive because of high demand from an aging population. Manufacturers must now look past the limits of traditional two-dimensional stylus techniques and dated AFM scan modes to find functional surface analysis instruments for streamlined production and increased yield.

A 15-minute Q&A session will follow the presentation. All registrants will receive a link to a recorded webinar session once the live seminars have been completed.

Glossary
intraocular lens
A lens that is implanted within the eye to replace the eye lens, which has been removed because of cataract or other defect.
ophthalmology
Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the eyes and visual system. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye disorders and diseases. They are trained to provide comprehensive eye care, including medical, surgical, and optical interventions. Key areas within ophthalmology include: General eye care: Ophthalmologists perform routine eye examinations to assess visual acuity,...
profilometry
Measurement of surface roughness or quality through the use of a diamond-pointed stylus connected to a coil in an electric field. As the stylus is traced across the surface, a current is created that corresponds to the roughness.
