The main objective of refractive surgery is improving the patient’s quality of life by decreasing their dependence on spectacles and contact lenses. In the majority of cases, we, refractive surgeons, are dealing with young healthy individuals with excellent quality of vision; they are seeking no less than excellent uncorrected visual acuity with at ...

Biocompatibility of Intraocular Lenses
The performance of an intraocular lens is determined by several factors such as the surgical technique, surgical complications, intraocular lens biomaterial and design, and host reaction to the lens.

Factors Affecting Posterior Capsule Opacification in the Development of Intraocular Lens Materials
Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common complication arising from the corrective surgery used to treat cataract patients. PCO arises when lens epithelial cells (LEC) residing in the capsular bag post-surgery undergo hyper-proliferation ...

Surgical management of non-syndromic ectopia lentis [PDF]
AIM: To compare whether aphakic contact lenses or secondary iris-claw intraocular lenses are superior in the refractive management post-pars plana vitreolensectomy in a pedigree with an FBN1 mutation causing non-syndromic ectopia lentis (NSEL) with ...

Multifocal versus monofocal intraocular lenses after cataract extraction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Good unaided distance visual acuity is now a realistic expectation following cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Near vision, however, still requires additional refractive power, usually in the form of reading glasses ...
