Seibel Vision Surgery offers the latest advancement
in high tech vision measurement tools. Accurate measurement is certainly
a critical element in planning for cataract surgery. When restoring vision
is the goal, there can be no room for error.

The Carl Zeiss Meditec IOL Master is a state-of-the-art
laser system that evaluates the length of the eye, surface curvature
and intraocular lens power.
In cataract surgery, or other lens-replacement procedures, vision is improved
by replacing the eye's natural lens with an intraocular lens (IOL). IOLs come
in different powers and sizes to compensate for each patient's individual needs.
For best vision after cataract surgery, precise measurements must be taken
to determine which IOL to implant. The IOL Master is a high-precision
instrument revolutionizing all previous techniques and setting a new standard
for IOL calculations, called optical biometry.
With the IOL Master, Dr. Seibel can have complete confidence in the accuracy of
results. Testing is fast and efficient (one minute or less), and both patient
safety and comfort is enhanced. The IOL Master is the first optical tool that
doesn't require contact with the eye, which eliminates the need for anesthesia
and excludes any risk of infection.
