Intraoperative wavefront aberrometer aids refraction, astigmatism

 

An emerging wavefront aberrometry technology offers real-time refractive status and improves astigmatism correction during cataract surgery, according to two surgeons who have used the system. They said intraoperative measurements optimize refractive outcomes of toric IOLs and limbal relaxing incisions. 

OSN Cornea/External Disease Section Editor Eric D. Donnenfeld, MD, FACS, and OSN Optics Section Editor Jack T. Holladay, MD, MSEE, FACS, discussed the ORange System from WaveTec Vision. Download
