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 ...

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 ...

Corneal retardation time as an ocular hypertension disease indicator [PDF]
Objective. A detailed analysis of the corneal retardation time $\tau$ as a highly related parameter to the intraocular pressure (IOP), and its plausible role as an indicator of ocular hypertension disease. Approach. A simple theoretical expression for $\tau$ is derived within the corneal viscoelastic model of Kelvin-Voigt with 3 elements.

New two-point scleral-fixation technique for foldable intraocular lenses with four hollow haptics [PDF]
The study was to report a new two-point scleral-fixation technique for foldable intraocular lenses with four haptics. Lenses were slid into the anterior chamber from a 2.8 mm corneal incision and fixed under two sclera flaps at two opposite points.
