AMMC® – The new standard in myopia management & Integrating Lenstar 900 into myopia care: real-world insights from Singapore

Prof. Dr. med. Hakan Kaymak, Breyer, Kaymak & Klabe Eye Surgery (Germany) & Dr. Li Lian Foo, Singapore National Eye Centre (Singapore)

Prof. Dr. med. Hakan Kaymak – founder of the Age-Matched Myopia Control (AMMC®) framework, integrated into Lenstar Myopia – presents the benefits of this new standard in myopia management. Gain an introduction to myopia, the AMMC framework, and how AMMC® allows objective assessment of myopia therapy success. Dr. Li Lian Foo will share insights into current trends and clinical needs in myopia management and discuss how integrated tools support clinical decisions and improve patient communication. 

Key topics:

  • Introduction to myopia 
  • Age-Matched Myopia Control (AMMC®) 
  • Axial length growth in children’s eyes 
  • Lenstar Myopia & EyeSuite Myopia. 
  • Myopia management in Singapore. 


Learning outcomes: 

  • Understand axial length growth in children & how AMMC® evaluates it using age-matched normative data 
  • Learn how AMMC® enables objective assessment of treatment success 
  • Explore how AMMC® supports clinical decision making & patient communication.

 

 

Lenstar 900 update – The new cornea map & Complex case management with the Lenstar 900

Warren E. Hill, MD, East Valley Ophthalmology (Arizona, USA) & Steven G. Safran, MD (New Jersey, USA)

Join Dr. Warren Hill as he explores the new cornea map feature of the Lenstar 900 – designed to support confident toric IOL selection and more accurate ocular surface assessment for improved measurement accuracy. Dr. Steven G. Safran complements the discussion with a series of complex refractive cataract and post-refractive surgical cases, sharing practical strategies for managing challenging anterior segment scenarios and optimizing outcomes.

Key topics:

  • New third keratometry LED ring for 30% more measurement points 
  • Validating toric IOL measurements using the new cornea map feature 
  • Using the new third keratometry ring to assess the quality of the ocular surface 
  • Benefits of angles Alpha & Kappa
  • How Lenstar 900 data helps plan complex cases & interpret postoperative outcomes. 


Learning outcomes:

  • Identify how the new cornea map feature supports toric IOL candidacy & decision making 
  • Interpret cornea map information & apply it to improve Lenstar 900 measurement accuracy 
  • Apply Lenstar 900 data beyond basic IOL calculation to plan complex cases & evaluate postoperative outcomes. 

 

 

Crystalline lens & IOL tilt: myths & facts

Dr. Giacomo Savini, Studio Oculistico d’Azeglio (Italy)

Dr. Savini provides baseline information on how lens tilt affects the refractive and visual outcomes of cataract surgery. He shows how the Eyestar 900’s unique measurement feature may lead to improved knowledge about this important parameter – and how it potentially optimizes the prediction accuracy for IOL and helps to manage patients’ expectations.

Key topics:

  • Lens tilt basic knowledge (anatomy & normal values) 
  • Correlation of crystalline lens & IOL tilt 
  • Predictors of IOL tilt 
  • IOL-tilt effect on refractive astigmatism
  • IOL-tilt effect on the visual performance.


Learning outcomes: 

  • Know the anatomic normal lens tilt values 
  • Discover how crystalline lens & IOL tilt correlate
  • Understand the relationship between IOL tilt & visual outcomes after cataract surgery. 

 

 

Eyestar 900: My pre-op device for latest solid state laser application for cataract & refractive surgery

Dr. Javier Cabrerizo, Copenhagen Eye Institute (Denmark)

Dr. Cabrerizo provides exciting information on how the Eyestar 900 enables him to perform excellent preoperative planning of laser refractive and cataract interventions using latest generation solid state laser systems. Covering topography, ectasia screening, and imaging, discover how the Eyestar 900’s feature set goes beyond biometry to deliver comprehensive anterior chamber analysis and more.  

Key topics:

  • Eyestar 900 for innovative refractive procedure planning, e.g., solid-state PRK 
  • Topography features of the Eyestar 900
  • Beyond biometry: Topography & anterior chamber analysis.


Learning outcomes: 

  • How can Eyestar 900 be used to plan refractive procedures? 
  • Discover the Eyestar 900’s full feature set
  • Gain an introduction to topography, ectasia screening & imaging. 


Please note, the Eyestar 900 is not available for sale in the USA, and the Lenstar 900 cornea map feature is currently only available in the USA.
