Basic aspects of IOL calculation

IOL calculation can now be considered a solved problem. However, the problem of sharing the knowledge of the underlying physical and mathematical basics is still unsolved. Also, the necessary hard- and software tools for an IOL calculation approximating the accuracy of prescribed glasses are not yet...

Description
Summary:IOL calculation can now be considered a solved problem. However, the problem of sharing the knowledge of the underlying physical and mathematical basics is still unsolved. Also, the necessary hard- and software tools for an IOL calculation approximating the accuracy of prescribed glasses are not yet generally available. The aim of this survey is a clarification of the basics and of some historical pitfalls that still lead to persisting misunderstandings.
