Improvement of Best Spectacle-corrected Visual Acuity After LASIK in Highly Myopic Eyes With Reduced Preoperative Best Spectacle-corrected Visual Acuity

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2006
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate the visual acuity after LASIK in patients with high myopia and in patients with preoperative best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) <0.6. METHODS: This retrospective study comprised 97 consecutive eyes in 57 patients who underwent LASIK.

Preoperative prediction of postoperative visual acuity in patients with cataracts: A quantitative review

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1988
Many tests of visual function have been proposed as means of preoperatively evaluating cataract patients' surgical outcomes. It is impractical to compare all of these tests simultaneously on the same group of patients. Quantitative reviews apply quantitative methods to comparisons across studies.

Functional visual outcomes of cataract surgery in patients with 20/20 or better preoperative visual acuity

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2009
To measure the visual outcomes after cataract surgery in patients with 20/20 or better preoperative visual acuity.University-based cataract referral practice.In this retrospective case review, 2 groups of patients with a corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) of 20/20 or better in both eyes before cataract surgery were identified.

Comparison of preoperative 10-Hz visual evoked potentials to contrast sensitivity and visual acuity after cataract extraction

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1992
Cataract patients whose surgical outcomes were in question were referred for testing by visual evoked potentials, elicited through closed eyelids by a luminance stimulus (flash) that appeared 10 times per second. Visual evoked potentials were rated as normal (predicted acuity of 20/50 or better) or abnormal (predicted acuity of 20/60 or worse ...

Are routine preoperative medical tests needed with cataract surgery? Study of visual acuity outcome

Current Eye Research, 2004
The aim of this prospective randomized clinical trial was to investigate whether routine medical testing before cataract surgery reduced the rate of ocular surgical complications and to study its impact on visual acuity outcome.The study was carried out in an academic medical center in Brazil, at State University of Campinas, between 10 February 2000 ...
