William De La Peña's profile

The ASCRS Intraocular Calculator

Dr. William De La Pena is the owner, medical director, and chief executive officer of the De La Pena Eye Clinic in Montebello, California, one of the most comprehensive private ophthalmology practices in the Los Angeles area. Dr. William De La Pena also functions as a member of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons and the Board of Regents at the University of California.

The American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons (ASCRS) provides ophthalmologists and other medical professionals with a variety of helpful tools, including the Intraocular (IOL) Calculator. The IOL Calculator is an adjunct accessory that helps guide physicians in establishing a course of treatment. The IOL Calculator does not provide definitive diagnoses, but instead should be used in tandem with diagnostic testing, comprehensive ophthalmic analysis, and all other processes necessary for a successful cataract operation, particularly in regards to patients that have received refractive surgery in the past.

Recent updates to the IOL Calculator, which can be found on the ASCRS website, include revisions to the Barrett True K formula for myopic LASIK/PRK, hyperopic LASIK/PRK, and RK eyes, and entry fields for both post-RK and pre-RK refraction data.
