This is a fast, non-invasive, contactless procedure and there is no risk of trauma or infection of the cornea.
Modern cataract surgery requires the achievement of ideal post-operative refractive results. In addition to good operation techniques, the quality of IOL (Intra Ocular Lens) and a precise calculation of intraocular lens power is of crucial importance to achieve a good result after refractive cataract surgery. Accurate calculation of power is obtained using the pre-operative biometric data, including the axial length of the eye, anterior chamber depth and the keratometry values. Incorrect calculation of the lens power is the main reason for patient dissatisfaction and lens replacement in modern cataract surgery.
We use both standard ultrasound biometry and modern contactless optical biometry depending on the situation.
