Question 2: What wavefront data should you use to select EDOF IOLs for patients?

Question 3: What are the multi-function benefits of using an integrated Wavefront Aberrometer, registered on the patient’s optical center?

Question 4: When OSD is discovered prior to surgery, should you postpone the procedure for treatment, or stabilize the tear film, then proceed with surgery?

Question 5: How do we characterize and localize Astigmatisms within the optical pathway?

Question 6: How do you manage patient expectations and IOL selection?

Question 7: How do we measure OPD ROI and monetize the advanced diagnostic test regimen?

Please expand on this -- if you were consulting with a patient looking for a premium IOL, where would you start? What objective data would you gather?
