Objectives
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:

  • Identify some commonly overlooked ocular surface problems that can potentially compromise surgical outcomes.
  • Discuss the impact of the ocular surface on the accuracy of IOL power calculation.
  • Describe how repeating biometry can help to exclude potentially poor refractive IOL candidates.
