Sharp-Edged IOLs Not Associated With Postoperative Posterior Capsule Opacification
Following bilateral cataract surgery, patients who received round-edged IOLs experienced more posterior capsule opacification.
Blue-Light Filtering IOLs Not Protective Against AMD
A large study shows that years after surgery, the lenses did not lead to differences in macular disease rates.
Pseudophakic Single-Vision Patients Have Elevated Fall Risk
Researchers investigated the impact pseudophakic monovision has on risk of falls.

After 3 months, mean visual acuity with trifocal IOL was better than 20/25 at test distances, uncorrected and distance-corrected.
With Trifocal IOL, 90% Achieve Spectacle Independence
The lens offers distance, intermediate and near vision.
Excimer Laser Can Help Correct Post-LASIK Residual Refractive Error
The technology was deemed safe for LASIK retreatment, researchers say.
Trifocal IOL Shows Excellent 1-Month Visual Outcomes
Mean 1-month postoperative standard error of the manifest refraction was 0.01±0.05 D, the study says.
Post-LASIK Ectasia Recovery Possible Through Appropriate Disease Management
A retrospective case series demonstrates how most patients with post-LASIK ectasia can regain functional visual with the right management.
Extended Depth of Focus IOL Promising in Patients With Radial Keratotomy History
Initial clinical impressions of extended depth of focus IOLs are promising in post radial keratotomy patients, researchers suggest.
Progressive IOL’s Intermediate Vision Superior to Aspheric IOL
Investigators compare the outcomes of patients who have undergone bilateral cataract surgery and offered different monofocal options.
Laser Procedure Safe and Effective For Extreme Myopia After 12 Months
Patients maintained visual results following trans-epithelial photorefractive keratectomy with nontouch debridement.
Patient Education Key to Choosing Monovision
Most cataract patients are unaware of monovision lens options until a surgeon provides education, a study shows.
Toric Lens With Modified Haptic Design Shows Outcomes Comparable With Predecessors
Researchers investigate the visual performance and rotational stability of a new toric intraocular lens with modified haptic design.
Multifocal Intraocular Lens Provides Favorable Contrast Sensitivity in Trial
A patient survey indicated a preference for the lens to the control.
Decentration Not Correlated with Postoperative Visual Outcomes in SMILE
The magnitude of decentration does not differ between eyes with satisfactory outcomes, and those with suboptimal outcomes, the report explains.
Digital Image-Guided Systems May Cut Cataract Surgery Time
Researchers put a digital image-guided system for toric IOL alignment to the test.
Surgical Modifications Can Avoid Postoperative Hypotonia
The technique employs self-resorbable sutures in intraocular lens implantation.
