| Title | Achieving Emmetropia with Lens Surgery - Still some way to go? |
| Abstract Nr. | 2094 |
| Purpose | Major advances in biometric measurements such as optical biometry and a more thorough understanding of the calculation of IOL power have significantly contributed to achieve better refractive outcomes after cataract surgery. However, high patients’ expectations in the context of modern refractive cataract surgery pose a new challenge. Recent innovations such as use of corneal tomography, swept source optical coherence tomographic (OCT) imaging of the entire eye and ray tracing to calculate IOL power will be discussed. Enhancement of IOL power calculation using intra-operative measurements of the aphakic eye using wavefront sensors and OCT will be presented. |
