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 ...

Polycarbonate intraocular lenses
Bisphenol-A polycarbonate has been investigated as an improved polymer for ocular implants, especially for intraocular lenses (IOLs). Polycarbonate properties afford special opportunities for development of tougher, stronger, one-piece IOLs. Autoclave or gamma sterilizability and a higher refractive index may provide additional IOL advantages over ...

Changes in forward light scatter parameters as a function of refractive error in young adults [PDF]
Background/aims Some aspects of visual performance worsen with increasing myopia. Whilst the underlying causes are not always clear, reduction in retinal image quality is often attributed to structural changes in the posterior myopic eye.

Accommodating Intraocular Lenses
With an explosive increase in the worldwide prevalence of presbyopia, development of an accommodating intraocular lens (IOL) with expansive accommodative amplitude remains the holy grail in lens-based refractive surgery. A dynamic change in the dioptric power of the eye can be accomplished by various strategies alone or in combination, including ...

Cauterization technique for suture erosion in transscleralfixation of intraocular lenses
Transscleral suturing is a commonly applied technique to fix intraocular implants in the sulcus. A major problem after transscleral implantation is suture erosion that normally happens in the late post-surgery period and may result in an increased ...

Clinical application of accommodating intraocular lens [PDF]
The present review describes recent advances in application of accommodating intraocular lenses (AIOLs). Standard monofocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) only correct distance vision, while AIOLs are designed to allow both good distance vision and near ...

Phakic intraocular lenses: An overview
Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) are a common solution for the surgical correction of high myopia and myopia in thin corneas. Global trends result in increasing rates of patients with high myopia which will result in increased rates of pIOL implantation.
