FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, in particular, to ophthalmology. The method for selecting the strength of the implantable intraocular lens (IOL) for lens opacities includes the following stages: the first stage, using biometry, determines the thickness and optical strength of the cornea, the magnitude of astigmatism and its meridian, the depth of the anterior chamber of the phakic eye, the thickness of the lens at the preoperative stage; the second stage, after phacoemulsification without implantation of IOL, optical biometry is performed on the patient with measurement of the axial length of the eyeball; then the IOL is calculated according to the formulas embedded in the IOLMaster 500 biometer.
EFFECT: application of this invention makes it possible to more accurately select the strength of the implanted IOL.
