Our Ascan Clinic is a pre-operative assessment for measuring the length, contour and shape of the eye prior to cataract and intraocular lens (IOL) surgery. These measurements are used to predict and personalise the power of the lens used for surgery, with the aim of achieving the best possible visual outcome. This assessment also provides screening for underlying disease and disorders, ensuring factors that may affect the surgical outcome are recognised preoperatively. Preparation Instructions to ensure measurement accuracy: Remove contact lenses at least one week prior to your appointment and begin using the lubricant eye drops provided, 1 drop, 4 times per day, the day before your scan and until the appointment time.
