Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmic optics
  • Optical metrology
  • Biomedical engineering

Background:

  • Accurate measurement of intraocular lens (IOL) optical performance is crucial for refractive surgery outcomes.
  • Existing methods may not fully capture performance under realistic in-situ conditions like tilt and decentration.
  • Wavefront sensing offers a promising approach for detailed optical analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a wavefront-based method for measuring monofocal IOL optical quality and power.
  • To assess the method's performance under simulated tilt and decentration conditions.
  • To compare the proposed method with established measurement techniques.

Main Methods:

  • An experimental setup using an artificial eye (wet-cell) and a Shack-Hartmann aberrometer was employed.
  • In vitro wavefront data of IOLs were analyzed to compute optical quality parameters (PSF, MTF).
  • Measurements were conducted under various tilt and decentration values, compared against ray-tracing simulations.

Main Results:

  • The developed system demonstrated high precision and accuracy, consistent with theoretical calculations.
  • Repeatability and reproducibility met ISO standards, with similar Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) results compared to a standard method.
  • Tested IOLs showed reduced optical quality with tilt/decentration, with susceptibility varying based on asphericity.

Conclusions:

  • A simple, accurate, and precise wavefront-based method for in vitro IOL aberration and power measurement is validated.
  • The method effectively evaluates IOL performance under off-axis conditions.
  • Results align with ray-tracing simulations, confirming the method's reliability.
