EEVblog 1554 - Optometrist AutoRefractor Keratometer TEARDOWN!
A teardown of a very interesting bit of optometry kit, a Shin Nippon NVISION K-5001 RefKeratometer (Auto Refractor Keratometer).
It can measure the curvature of your cornea, and well as refractive error to diagnose near and far sightedness.
