What is it about?

To analyze and describe the coefficients found on maximum Ambrósio Relational Thickness-Maximum (ART-Max) and Belin/Ambrósio Enhanced Ectasia Display total deviation (BAD-D) in eyes with normal corneal topography subjected to cataract surgery with premium intraocular lens implantation and correlated these data with final visual acuity.

Why is it important?

Among patients with normal corneal topography who underwent premium intraocular and had good final visual acuity of 20/20 or 20/25 suspicious or abnormal indices of ART-Max and BAD-D were frequent,

Perspectives

The results showed that normal topography of the anterior cornea, even in the presence of posterior corneal curvature changes assessed by Pentacam, was a good parameter for selecting patients for premium intraocular lens implantation.
