Laboratory Analysis of Causative Factors for the Final Incision Size due to Intraocular Lens Injector Insertion

Purpose: In intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, insertion of the IOL injector enlarges the clear corneal incision. A larger incision size (IS) is associated with a higher risk for surgically induced astigmatism and endophthalmitis. The goal of this study was to determine which parameters most influ...
