Intraocular lens calculations

Accurate intraocular lens calculations are crucial to a successful refractive outcome after cataract or lens replacement surgery. A plethora of methods are available which can make the process confusing and prone to errors.

Below are various lectures that I give as part of the RCOphth / Ulster University Postgraduate Diploma in Cataract and Refractive Surgery. These are designed to help other eye surgeons perform accurate and reliable intraocular lens calculations in a variety of clinical scenarios.
