ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present invention is a method for determining whether to perform a phakic intraocular lens implant procedure, which method includes: (a) obtaining an image of an anterior segment of an eye; (b) determining a distance from a crystalline lens to another part of an anterior chamber from the image; and (c) comparing the distance with a predetermined value.
