A review of angle kappa and multifocal intraocular lenses and their effect on visual outcomes
Abstract Although most patients are satisfied with their vision after multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, dissatisfaction has been reported for various reasons, including poor visual outcomes and visual disturbances. Many published reports hypothesise that preoperative angle kappa may be an associated factor in patient dissatisfaction ...

Analysis of best corrected visual acuity following corneal refractive surgery comparing low and standard predicted postoperative keratometry [PDF]
BACKGROUND: It is a commonly held view in the ophthalmologic community that eyes with sufficiently low calculated postoperative corneal keratometry, less than 35 diopters, should not undergo corrective refractive laser surgery (CRLS) due to the increased

Retinal detachment after laser In Situ keratomileusis
To report characteristics and outcome of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia.A retrospective chart review of patients who presented with RRD after myopic LASIK over a 10-year period.Fourteen eyes were identified with RRD. Of these, two of 6112 LASIK procedures were from our center.
