Interpretation of Aberrometry Measurements in Cataract Surgery

Abstract

The wavefront analysis in cataract surgery was shown to be a fundamental tool in evaluating visual quality after IOL implantation. The OPD-Scan II distinguished between corneal and lenticular aberrations, allowing for evaluation of actual optical and visual performance attributable to the IOL. Our review of case examples also showed that for multifocal IOL implantation, a thorough investigation is necessary to correlate subjective and objective visual quality and for patient selection.
