How to Improve your Refractive Cataract Surgery Outcomes by Skilful Interpretation of Corneal Mapping

AIMS of Course
• Help manage refractive expectations of cataract surgery patients
• Help with managing toric IOL’s
• Help with LRI’s, OCCI’s, effect of incision size and architecture
• Help with selecting multifocal IOL candidates
Why address astigmatism?
• Astigmatism is the KEY factor for success with multifocal IOL’s
• Correcting astigmatism provides better UCVA, BCVA for distance
and near
• Glasses that may be required are lighter, cheaper and easier to
wear / get used to
What is “Refractive Cataract?”
• The intended outcome is emmetropia
• The intended outcome has addressed astigmatism
• The intended outcome may have addressed presbyopia too depending
on patient wishes (multifocal IOL, monovision)
• The patient is free of glasses for at least distance vision (monofocal,
emmetropia) or completely free of glasses
Devices
• Placido disk (in relative detail)
• Scheimpflug (in relative detail)
• Cassini (Introduction)
Topolyzer (Keratograph)
• Placido disk
• Tear film reflections
• Central scotoma where camera is situated
• Auto-capture, very repeatable
Oculyzer (Pentacam)
• Scheimpflug camera
• Captures scatter so does not see tear film but
corneal surface
• No central scotoma
• Auto-capture, very repeatable
Diagnostic Applications
• Screening for IOL’s (toric, multifocal)
• Screening for corneal health
• Screening for AC parameters
Cassini Corneal Topographer
Multi-spectral LED technology from i-Optics
Given the faster acquisition time and insensitivity to radial aberrations, corneal astigmatism is measured more accurately

How does the iTrace work?
• Simultaneous corneal topography and whole eye
wavefront mapping
• Refraction
• Can separate corneal from intra-ocular optics
• Can therefore help manage post-op toric IOL’s
6/10 +0.25 /+0.25 X42 6/10
Summary
• Value of adding posterior corneal data is understood
• What about the geometry and geography of the
crystalline lens and the final position and orientation of
the IOL?
• Mirricon from ClearSight may have more answers?
Pre-Operative
• IOL Calculations
Results
Lenstar radius achieves a Mean Prediction Error of -0.02±0.52 D Pentacam radius achieves a Mean Prediction Error of 0.22±0.68 D
“Perfect” eye, Mean Prediction Error ± Standard deviation Lenstar vs Pentacam
Pre-Operative
• IOL calculations
• IOL type
Results Scenario III: Average Eye, Acrylic vs. Silicone
Acrylic IOLs are considerably less affected by IOL design, whereas silicone IOLs exhibit a much higher dependency, with the poorest results obtained for convex-plano IOLs.
