VEITIA ROVIROSA, Zucell et al. Evolution of optical coherence biometry and the new platforms. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2019, vol.32, n.2  Epub 30-Sep-2019. ISSN 1561-3070.

Optical coherence interferometry is an essential procedure for calculating the optical power of the intraocular lens. The present review describes the evolution of optical biometry by interferometry, the new platforms, technical features, calibration parameters, interpretation of results, and special situations in which cataract surgery is indicated. Information was collected from the databases on the Infomed platform, specifically the Virtual Health Library, PubMed, Cochrane Database-Wiley Online Library, LILACS and Scielo. IOL Master facilitates the measurement of ocular biometric parameters, since it performs solid, repeatable measurements that include fourth-generation formulas for the calculation of intraocular lens power. Several ocular biometry platforms are currently available in the market which use high resolution interferometric methods with the potential to significantly improve refractive results. These studies are characterized by their high predictability, making it possible to obtain good visual acuity and avoid refractive surprise.

Palabras clave : Optical coherence interferometry; cataract; IOL Master.
