Vienna Institute for Research in Ocular Surgery

A Karl Landsteiner Institute

Research focus is on anterior segment surgery with an emphasis on IOL design and material effects on refractive predictability, posterior capsule opacification performance and visual function. The institute is attempting to balance the number of sponsored and investigator-driven trials.

Methodology

  • Partial coherence interferometry for ACD measurement,
  • Purkinjemeter,
  • retroillumination-photography,
  • laser flare-cell measurement,
  • and others

Scientific Cooperations

  • Pablo Artal, Murcia, Spain
  • Wolfgang Drexler, Biomedical Research, Medical University of Vienna, Austria
