4.2.2 Dense cataract eye
Take the axial length measurement in the same manner as when using
the average acoustic velocity for a phakic eye.
4.2.3 Aphakic eye
Take the axial length measurement in the same manner as when using
the average acoustic velocity for a phakic eye.
4.2.4 IOL eye
The axial length measurement is obtained using the following formulae.
: Axial length measurement
: Center thickness of IOL (entered by user)
: IOL acoustic velocity
: Anterior chamber depth acoustic velocity
: Vitreous acoustic velocity
: Measurement time
: Time for measuring chamber death
: Time for measuring a vitreous body
