Blue light filtering intraocular lenses in phacoemulsification cataract surgery.
Blue light can damage retina and cause age related macular degeneration. After cataract surgery and lens removal retina stays unprotected. Blue light filtering intraocular lenses (IOL) increase protection of the retina. In our prospective study we investigated clinical results after bilateral implantation of Acrysof Natural IOL to 30 patients (N = 60 eyes). In a control group (N = 60 eyes, 30 p...
متن کاملIntraocular lens calculation for aspheric intraocular lenses.
PURPOSE To evaluate the possible benefits of biometry and ray-tracing intraocular lens (IOL) calculation for aspheric aberration-correcting IOLs. SETTING Private eye clinic in Germany. DESIGN Retrospective consecutive case series. METHODS Eyes with 3 different aberration-correcting IOLs were reviewed. Before surgery, the axial length, corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, crystalline...
متن کاملPhakic intraocular lenses.
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 least the same quality of vision postoperative...
متن کاملAspheric Intraocular Lenses
With continued improvements in surgical techniques, biometry, and intraocular lens (IOL) technology, cataract surgeons have for some time been capable of consistently achieving highly accurate quantitative refractive results following cataract/lens replacement surgery. We know we can improve an individual’s vision from 20/400 to 20/20, for example. The modern cataract surgeon, however, is now e...
متن کاملScleral Fixation Intraocular lenses
Background: The 1ry indication for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOL) is dislocation as a principal complication of cataract surgery. Inadequate capsular support is the most common cause of IOL dislocation. Other indications include traumatic phakic lens dislocation (cataractous or clear), surgically aphakic eyes or anterior chamber IOL with complications (persistent hyphema, uveitis)...
