1. Instructions ~ Haigis Formula Optimization
Follow these instructions
PRECISELY.
Haigis-instructions.pdf (Adobe PDF)
This document is a set of detailed instructions on how to complete and submit the Excel spreadsheet that will be used to derive your set of surgeon and IOL specific a0, a1 and a2 Haigis constants for optical biometry.
2. Spreadsheet ~ Haigis Formula Optimization
Haigis Formula Optimization — Haigis-300.xls (Excel)
This Excel spreadsheet is used to submit data for optimizing the a0,
a1 and a2 constants for the Haigis formula. The corneal power must be entered
in diopters and not mm.
If less than 200 valid cases are submitted, only the a0 Haigis constant
will be optimized with the Haigis a1 and the a2 constants set at default
values. Ideally, you would submit a minimum of 225 cases, so at least 200
cases will remain after the exclusion of possible outliers.
3. Email ~ Haigis Formula Optimization
Subject line to read: "Haigis Optimization".
You must include the following:
- Your name (only direct requests from surgeon are allowed).
- Haigis-300.xls spreadsheet - complete and accurate
- Manufacturer and model of each IOL, such as Alcon SN60WF
- Biometry method employed, such as Lenstar or IOLMaster

Refractive Vergence Formula — R-verg-Hill.xls (Excel)
This Excel spreadsheet contains the refractive vergence formula
as outlined in:

Holladay JT: Standardizing constants for ultrasonic biometry,
keratometry, and intraocular lens power calculations. J Cataract Refract
Surg 1997;23:1356-1370. |
The more sophisticated "Holladay R Formula" is
recommended and is part of the
Holladay
IOL Consultant software package.
Correcting for Vertex Distance
Correcting for Vertex Distance — Vertex.xls (Excel)
Be sure to maintain the correct sign (+ or -) when entering the refractive
data, or the results will not be accurate.

This .pdf file contains the checklist that our staff uses when measuring
the axial length, central corneal power, ACD, and horizontal corneal diameter
using the IOLMaster. The .pdf file contains three identical checklists. We
suggest having them laminated individually to allow
various staff members access to their own copy.
