Holladay 2 integrated The ZEISS IOLMaster 500 has the recognized Holladay 2 formula on board. You can continuously minimize your prediction error for IOL power calculation. Just enter the postoperative refraction of your patients – all other data is automatically fed into the Holladay 2 software calculation.
Over 50,000 cataract surgeries evaluated for better
refractive results The extensive clinical experience of the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 is reflected by the User Group for Laser Interference Biometry (ULIB) website. The ULIB database contains more than 270 lens constants continuously optimized with over 50,000 sets of patient data created with the ZEISS IOLMaster – absolutely unique in the industry. 2
Telecentric keratometry Only the ZEISS IOLMaster family features distance- independent telecentric keratometry. It enables robust and repeatable measurements due to constant spot center distances. Thus the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 shows excellent agreement with manual keratometry while achieving superior precision performance, making its keratometry the most trusted among cataract surgeons.7
“The IOLMaster has significantly
changed the way biometry is performed and continues to do so.” Prof. Kenneth J. Hoffer, M.D. Santa Monica, USA

Dense cataracts In denser cataracts the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 achieves a measurement success ratio that is up to 20 % higher than that of other optical biometry devices.4 The underlying composite signal evaluation not only significantly increases the fraction of cataracts measurable with optical technology, but it also greatly increases signal-to-noise values.
Post-LVC eyes The ZEISS IOLMaster 500 includes the Haigis-L formula which is dedicated to myopic and hyperopic post-LVC cases and is very convenient as it requires no clinical history data. 8
Staphyloma, pseudophakic and silicone-filled eyes
Even with staphyloma, pseudophakic and silicone-filled eyes the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 measures along the visual axis, yielding the relevant axial distance.
Reliable and accurate IOL power The ZEISS IOLMaster 500 simplifies calculation for post-LVC patients IOL power calculation for patients with the Haigis-L formula. with prior laser vision correction.
“For me, there are only few innovations
which have revolutionized cataract surgery. The IOLMaster is one of them.” Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Haigis Würzburg, Germany

The results of a meta-analysis of 28 published clinical papers
covering more than 1900 cases speak for themselves: you can trust the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 for toric IOL power calculation!
It was shown that the reported clinical outcomes for the
ZEISS IOLMaster with regard to residual astigmatism “[...] exceed, or are at least as good as those using manual or automated keratometry.” 5
Mean reported reduction in astigmatism
“The reference image allows precise
alignment of toric IOLs and simplifies workflow. Thats definitely the future of cataract surgery.” Prof. Oliver Findl, M.D. Vienna, Austria

Reference Image The Reference Image is the starting point of a markerless toric IOL workflow: An image of the eye is taken along with the keratometry measurement. Both reference image and keratometry data are transferred to the ZEISS CALLISTO eye ® computer- assisted cataract surgery system. Finally, all data needed for precise and markerless toric IOL alignment is injected in color and high resolution The Reference Image for a markerless toric where it is needed – in the eyepiece of the surgical IOL workflow.
microscope from ZEISS.
Automatic astigmatism detection
The ZEISS IOLMaster 500 automatically acquires the Reference image in case of astigmatism. It is displayed on the report so your practice staff can recognize the astigmatism and you can take the treatment option of a toric IOL into account. As landmarks for intra-operative matching, small blood vessels are used.
9 Ease of use
Well-designed user interface
The highly intuitive ZEISS IOLMaster 500 design sets standards in easy-to-delegate biometry. Common sources of error are eliminated through an easy-to-understand traffic light indicator.
Plausibility checks With the integrated automatic mode right-eye and left-eye values for axial length and corneal radii are compared and checked for plausibility – providing confidence especially for challenging eyes.
Automated workflow The Dual Mode facilitates measurements of axial length and keratometry without the need for manual interaction – minimizing acquisition and chairtime.
Distance independence The unique distance-independent telecentric keratometry is one of the reasons for the phenomenal ease of use of the ZEISS IOLMaster 500. Focusing becomes much easier.
Chairtime The average time needed to take a reading on the ZEISS IOLMaster 500 is up to 4 times faster compared to other optical devices.6 A difference you, your team and your patients will notice every day.
“If you asked my staff which optical
biometer they would go for, the answer would clearly be: the IOLMaster.” Prof. Sabong Srivannaboon, M.D. Bangkok, Thailand
