Course Description
Corneal imaging is vital in modern cataract surgery for IOL choice, astigmatism planning, and detecting subtle disease. This course offers a practical overview of topography and tomography, highlighting key parameters, pearls, and pitfalls. Real-world cases and evidence-based tips will show how imaging improves outcomes and prevents surprises. Taught by experienced faculty, the course is especially valuable for trainees and early-career surgeons.
Educational Objective
I want the learner, especially non-corneal specialists, to be able to confidently interpret corneal topography and tomography and apply this knowledge to cataract surgery planning. Learners will recognize key parameters, avoid common pitfalls, and use imaging to guide IOL selection, astigmatism management, and detection of subtle corneal disease, ultimately improving refractive outcomes and patient satisfaction.
