Is Lenstar Superior to IOLMaster?

The new Lenstar from Haag-Striet uses a laser, like the IOLMaster (from Carl Zeiss Meditec), but the Lenstar provides more information –  anterior chamber depth and more K readings, lens thickness (for Holladay formula). I typically send patients to the IOLMaster when implanting premium IOL’s. But I’ll say that my A scan does a great job, and it’s still the standard.
