Applying artificial intelligence to current IOL calculations

Refractive cataract surgery has the ability to neutralize the patient’s preexisting refractive error at the same time we address the lens opacity. Ideally, this is achieved all together at the same sitting by correctly determining the spherical IOL power and then also addressing the astigmatism. We can even implant IOLs that have multiple focal points, extended depth of field or perhaps even future accommodating designs, but the success of all of these hinges on the ability to have accurate IOL calculations.
By using just the keratometry and axial length, we (Read more...)
