About this trial
The aim of this study is to investigate the lens diameter (LD) as a useful parameter in intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation by using several different non-invasive imaging techniques. The aim is to establish an accurate model for lens diameter estimation and subsequently evaluate the influence of the LD on the effective postoperative lens position. The comparability of the different devices in terms of variability between the biometric measurements will also be assessed.
By then combining these two approaches with artificial intelligence, the aim is to develop a new approach to effectively incorporate the LD in IOL power calculation and improve patient's outcome in the long run.
