A recent article from the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery discussed the accuracy cataract surgery outcomes for needing spectacles.
It was noted that “we are still hovering at a figure of about 80% of patients achieving within +/- 0.5 units of focus (Dioptres D) of their target.
We are very pleased to say that at Cataract Surgery SA 93% of patients achieve within +/- 0.5 D.
The article noted the importance of using
- Swept source OCT biometry
- Macular OCT
- Fourth generation IOL prediction formulas
- Surgeon personalized IOL constants
- Personalized surgeon induced astigmatism factors
- Tracking of refractive (spectacle need) outcomes
We are also very pleased to say we do all these things at Cataract Surgery SA.
This allows us the best chance as indicated in excellent results above of achieving the outcome each individual patient desires for their use of spectacles, or not, after cataract surgery at Cataract Surgery SA.
