简要总结
Refractive outcome after cataract surgery mainly depends on the prediction of the intraocular lens that is implanted in the eye during surgery.
Aim of this study is to measure the position of the lens capsule during surgery and to use this measurements to improve post-operative refractive outcomes.
详细描述
During the last decades the refractive outcome after cataract surgery improved significantly.
The total prediction error in IOL power calculation (and therefore in the refractive outcome) can be divided into 3 main parameters:
- Axial eye length (in mm)
- Corneal power (in dioptres)
- Estimation of post-operative anterior chamber depth (ACD) (in mm)
Since the introduction of optical biometry (IOLMaster, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany), as a reliable non-contact measurement of the axial eye length the influence of the error of axial length measurement on the refractive error decreased from over 50% (when measured with applanation ultrasound) to 36%. The mean error of corneal power measurement is approximately 22%.
These results show that the estimation of the post-operative intra-ocular lens (IOL) position and therefore the estimated anterior chamber depth (ACD) is nowadays the main source of error (35%to 42%) in IOL power calculation and therefore for the refractive outcome of the patients after cataract surgery.

结局指标
主要结局
Correlation of intra-operative lens capsule measurements and the post-operative lens position
时间窗: 3 months
Aim of this outcome parameter is to detect, if intra-operative measurements (with an optical coherence tomogrophy system) help to detect the position of the artificial lens post-operatively
