Measurement of Combined Corneal, Internal, and Total Ocular Optical Quality Analysis in Anterior Segment Pathology With the OPD-Scan and OPD-Station

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To show the clinical use of the NIDEK OPD-Scan wavefront aberrometer and OPD-Station software in anterior segment surgery and pathology. METHODS: Case examples are presented along with discussion about the relevant clinical data obtained from the OPD-Scan and OPD-Station software. RESULTS: Six case examples including cataract surgery, secondary IOL implantation, phakic intraocular lens surgery, pterygium surgery, contact lens fitting, and multifocal ablations are discussed. CONCLUSIONS: A complete understanding of the optics of the eye facilitates a better clinical comprehension of a variety of conditions in anterior segment surgery and pathology.
