Featured YES Webinar
Decision-making for pre-op: How to plan routine and complex refractive cataract surgery
Faculty: Eric Weinlander, MD; Kourtney Houser, MD; Kamran Riaz, MD; Ryan Smith, MD; Austin Nakatsuka, MD
This webinar will discuss how to turn challenging cataract cases into refractive surgery wins. Faculty will cover pre-operative planning for routine to complex cataract surgeries, with a focus on refractive considerations for monofocal and presbyopia-correcting lenses, how a refractive surgical approach can help in eyes with ocular co-morbidities, and what the latest technology can offer to improve surgical outcomes.


Barrett Toric Calculator
This calculator is intended to be used in conjunction with a comprehensive ophthalmic examination and the appropriate diagnostic tests and measurements necessary for cataract surgery candidates being considered for a Toric intraocular lens.

Hill-RBF Calculator
The Hill-RBF Calculator is an advanced, self-validating method for IOL power selection employing pattern recognition and sophisticated data interpolation. It has been optimized for use with the Haag-Streit LENSTAR, using optical biometry for all axial measurements and high density autokeratometry.

Post-Refractive IOL Calculator
This calculator facilitates IOL power calculation in eyes that have undergone LASIK/PRK/RK. The IOL Calculator is meant to serve as an adjunct tool to assist physicians in selecting the appropriate IOL for a particular patient.
