By implementing the new calculation formula on the IOLCON website, it will be easy to get the exact individual vitreous volume. The data could be used by retinal surgeons prior to surgery. The knowledge of anatomical dimensions and exact individual vitreous volume seems to be important for gas and silicone oil fillings. With the newly derived knowledge, multicentric studies can evaluate the impact of the dose in intravitreal therapies. Patient-tailored dosing could prevent side effects and improve effectiveness.
