Purpose: To evaluate intraoperative aphakic eye axial length (AL) measurements using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).
Setting: Hanusch Hospital, Vienna, Austria.
Design: Prospective single-center study.
Purpose: To evaluate intraoperative anterior chamber depth (ACD) measurements of the aphakic eye to predict the postoperative ACD and compare 2 intraocular lens (IOL) designs.
Setting: Hanusch Hospital, Vienna, Austria.
Design: Prospective study.
Purpose: To quantify and classify swirling lens fragments during cataract surgery and record their impact on the corneal endothelium using continuous intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Setting: Vienna Institute for Ocular Surgery, Hanusch Hospital, Vienna, Austria.
Design: Prospective case series.
Background/aims: To include intraoperative measurements of the anterior lens capsule of the aphakic eye into the intraocular lens power calculation (IPC) process and to compare the refractive outcome with conventional IPC formulae.
Methods: In this prospective study, a prototype operating microscope with an integrated continuous optical coherence tomography (OCT) device (Visante attached to OPMI VISU 200, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Germany) was used to measure the anterior lens capsule position after implanting a capsular tension ring (CTR). Optical biometry (intraocular lens (IOL) Master 500) and ACMaster measurements (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Germany) were performed before surgery.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess, if measuring the position of the lens capsule intraoperatively with a continuous intraoperative optical coherence tomography (OCT) device could be useful to improve the prediction of the intraocular lens (IOL) position.
Methods: This prospective study included patients who were scheduled for cataract surgery. A prototype operating microscope with an integrated continuous OCT device was used to measure the anterior and posterior lens capsule position at different time points during cataract surgery.
