Jack Holladay, MD, talks about the optics all cataract surgeons need to know for accurate IOL power calculations. Dr. Holladay overviews the current methods used for lens calculation and sheds light on current accuracy limitations. He concludes with four points that, if followed, can help surgeons join the ranks of those who are within ±0.50 D of the target refraction in 90% of their cases.

in third world countries access to optical biometry is still a dream - especially in the peripheral eye care centers - but i feel confident enough to say that the ultrasound biometry can still be followed to get the most precise of corrections post operatively, provided the surgeon takes a keen interest in the way the keratomtery and the Ascan is done - especially so if he or she has to depend on an optometrist who would be doing the job. Of my surgical practice atleast 20-30% involve toric and multifocal IOL implants, for which precision with ones biometry is absolutely necessary. With my US Biometry i rarely go wrong with my IOL power calculation - having followed the application technique for almost 20 yrs into my practice.
