What essential data are required by your ex500?

• Ablation profile– A map of required tissue removal at each point of the

cornea – It’s based on difference between the pre- and to post-

operative cornea anterior surface– Derived from either modelled or measured anterior

cornea data

3


What essential data are required by your ex500?

• How to calculate an ablation profile?– Assume a preoperative cornea shape (R,Q, Cyl,…)– Calculate the postoperative corneal shape based on the

attempted refractive power change– Define to optical zone– Calculate the change in corneal height maps within the

optical zone– Define a transition zone

A limiting factor: the subjective refraction

Error of refraction (normal eyes)

Uncertainty of topography ~ 2 - 5 microns @ 8 mm

2 micrometer will result in an uncertainty of approximately 0.14 D for an optical zone of 6.5 mm

2 micrometer will result in an uncertainty of approximately 0.98 D for an optical zone of 2.5 mm

Summary

• TopolyzerVario and Oculyzer II are accurate measurement devices as demonstrated by experimental measurements and clinical studies.

• Measurements of each device can be affected differently by the condition of the patient’s eye.

• Raw data checks are required to assure accurate measurements.

• Consequences can be irregular ablations or poor refractive predictability
