Recorded at ASCRS, Dr Ben LaHood and Dr Damien Gatinel dive deeply into advanced IOL optics and discuss the bench testing Gatinel has performed across a large number of the IOLs currently on the market. The results of this work empower ophthalmic surgeons to better predict the performance of different IOLs based on key factors such as asphericity, aspheric aberration (positive or negative), thickness, multifocality, aperture effect, lens placement and more.
