biometry means measuring the eye’s physical dimensions with specialized instruments. In eye care, it most often refers to measurements used to plan cataract surgery and choose an intraocular lens (IOL). It can also support refractive surgery planning and help document eye growth or anatomy over time. Results are numerical and are interpreted by clinicians alongside the rest of the eye exam.
