Anterior Segment Intraocular Lens

Yellow filters for the eye have been of interest to ophthalmologists and optometrists for the last 30 years. Certain fish species can change the colour of the cornea in response to the level of illumination and regulate the amount of short-wavelength light reaching the retina. A positive influence of yellow eye filters on reduction of chromatic aberration has been found in a fish eye model. Blu...

Identifying anterior segment crystals.

A series of 22 patients with crystals in the anterior segment of the eye was examined by specular microscopy. Of 10 patients with hypermature cataract and hyperrefringent bodies in the anterior chamber cholesterol crystals were identified in four patients and in six of the 10 in whom aspirate was obtained cholesterol crystals were demonstrated in three, two of these having shown crystals on spe...

Anterior Segment Intraocular Lens

Currently, posterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) correct totally or partially spherical aberrations. In this article we present the visual results of a prospective multicentre study evaluating the Micro AY IOL correcting 0.11μm of spherical aberration, which is a good compromise between optimal vision and a consistent depth of focus. We evaluated 124 eyes that were operated on using bi-ma...

Toxic anterior-segment syndrome (TASS)

PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical findings and courses of five patients who developed toxic anterior-segment syndrome (TASS) after cataract surgery and investigate the cause. MATERIALS AND METHODS In May 2010, on the same day, ten patients were operated on by the same surgeon. Five of these patients developed TASS postoperatively. RESULTS Patients had blurred-vision complaints on the first d...
