  Aim: To correlate between Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) and ultrasonography to achieve precise Intraocular Lens (IOL) power of white cataract. Materials and methods: A prospective non randomized study was conducted at a special eye center at Menoufia from October 2019 to February 2020. This study was conducted on 60 eyes of 60 patients with white cataract who were going to have elective unilateral standard phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. AS-OCT was performed preoperatively in all diseased individuals (n=30) which were categorized into 2 groups. Group 1 with presence of sub-capsular fluid pockets and those without any fluid are Group 2. Pre and postoperative data of both groups was recorded and compared. Results: IOL power ranging from (20.0 D-24.0 D) with Mean ± .. View More»
