3.4 True Net Power
This map
(Figure 4)
shows the optical power of the cornea based on two different refractive indices,
one for the anterior (corneal tissue: 1.376) and one for the posterior surface (aqueous humour:
1.336), as well as the sagittal curvature of each. These results are aggregated. The True Net Power
map thus takes effects “A” and "B" into account. The underlying equation is:

anterior r = 8 mm and posterior r = 6.58 mm
