By using a small air bubble that fills about two thirds of the anterior chamber the erect image of the fundus of the aphakic human eye can be visualised clearly during vitrectomy, enabling the surgeon to operate without the need for vitrectomy lenses. The refractive power of the human aphakic eye is calculated here and the image site and size are presented.
In this article, we demonstrated the unexpected reduction of optical zone diameter in myopic keratomileusis and its causes. Mathematical evaluation of optical zone diameter was made possible through a module added to a computer program. Optical zone diameter was reduced more in smaller corrections than in higher corrections. Practical measurements were parallel to mathematical expectations except in some small corrections between -4.00 and -6.00 diopters, where it was even more reduced than calculated. We were able to enlarge the optical zone diameter using the same computer module.
