IOL MASTER

IOL Master. This is one of the most sophisticated and accurate ways to determine the power of the intraocular lens (IOL) implant for cataract surgery. The IOL Master allows for fast, accurate measurements of multiple areas of the eye, such as eye length and surface curvature, which are necessary for cataract surgery.

The IOL Master uses laser technology to measure the length of the eye. Measuring the length of the eye accurately is extremely important in cataract surgery, as it allows the eye surgeon to select the right power lens for an implant for each patient.

The IOL Master is the latest technology in this area and is more accurate than any other method, including the ultrasound test typically covered by provincial and territorial health plans.
