1 dzień temu · Participants, mean age 55.2±4.9 years had bilateral surgery, with ≤3 days between eyes. The study reviewed the Clareon ® PanOptix ® (Alcon Vision LLC) lens, a hydrophobic acrylic, diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Glare may be reduced because PanOptix is made from a “material which has an increased equilibrium water content ...
1 dzień temu · In cataract surgery, two main types of lenses can be used: Anterior Chamber Lenses: These lenses are placed between the cornea and the iris at the front of the eye. They are less commonly used now because they can cause complications and do not fit as naturally as other lenses. They sit in front of the iris, not in the spot where the eye’s ...

Patient should be referred to both cataract and retinal surgeons. An 84-year-old woman with a posterior chamber IOL presented with a “film” over her eye.
4 dni temu · Trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) represent a significant advancement in cataract surgery, offering patients improved vision at multiple distances. Unlike traditional monofocal lenses, which provide clear vision at only one distance, trifocal IOLs are designed to enhance near, intermediate, and far vision, reducing the dependence on glasses.
4 dni temu · INTRODUCTION: Cataract surgery has evolved towards perfection. However, intraocular lens (IOL) calculation accuracy is diminished in short eyes. The main purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of 11 IOL calculation formulas in refractive outcomes for uneventful cataract surgery in short eyes with axial length (AL) equal or inferior to 21.0 mm. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of ...
1 dzień temu · SIDE EFFECTS: Side effects of cataract surgery with the TECNIS Family of 1-Piece IOLs may include swelling/thickening of an area of the retina, and/or the need for a second surgery to reposition the lens, repair the retina, or remove the new lens.
5 dni temu · How do you think these discussions will influence the future direction of cataract and refractive surgery? Dr. Richard Packard: I will be checking the free papers to see what is new out there in IOL design and phaco technology.
