ABSTRACT:
Methods for measuring the distance between an eye and a lens spaced apart from the eye include passing an elongated tubular structure between the eye and the lens, and causing a length of a wire member to pass out of the opening at a distal end of the elongated tubular structure. The length of the wire member extending out of the opening is selected so that the combination of the elongated tubular structure and the wire member extending out of the opening is located in close proximity to the eye and contacts the lens. This length of wire member extending out of the distal end is correlatable to the distance between the eye and the lens. Apparatus for providing such measurements are included.
