What Does ORA Technology Mean to You and Your Cataract Surgery?

During cataract surgery, an intraocular lens (IOL) is used to replace the lens affected by cataracts.  The power, placement, and alignment of your IOL all affect your resulting vision. Optiwave Refractive Analysis (ORA®) allows Dr. Emilio M. Justo to fine-tune these factors for optimal surgical results.

The ORA® system uses a beam of low intensity laser light. During surgery, this beam is directed into the eye and bounces off the retina (the "screen" at the back of the eye that gathers visual information). Once the light is reflected back, sensors analyze the information to measure the eye's focusing capabilities. 

ORA® technology aids in confirming and selecting the lens power to reach the most precise vision improvement possible. It also helps Dr. Justo to diagnose and manage astigmatism, and properly align your implant during placement.

Repeat measurements can be taken until the desired outcome is achieved, and the surgery can be customized to an exacting degree.\
