Projectdetails

Introduction

Cataracts are the most prevalent blinding disease in the world. Surgery is the only option for cataracts, and it is the most frequently performed surgery worldwide.

Challenges in Cataract Surgery

However, how the patient will see after surgery and what type of replacement intraocular lens (IOL) is the best option cannot be known.

Project Overview

In this project, computational holography, which can control the phase, size, and shape of the light beam entering through the eye pupil, will be utilized to develop a holographic vision simulator for cataract patients.

Innovation in Testing

This will be the first cataract simulator for in-vivo testing of multifocal IOLs.

Clinical Studies

We'll develop and perform clinical studies of the novel instrument on patients.
