Emerging Technology in Refractive Cataract Surgery

Investigation of visual acuity and residual refractive error after cataract surgery in patients with senile cataract by phacoemulsification

Background and Aim: Vision improvement and reduction of refractive errors are considered as important goals of cataract surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate residual refractive errors after cataract surgery in the patients with senile cataract in Shahid Rahimi Hospital in Khorramabad City between 2017 and 2018. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 178 patients...

Visual and Refractive Results of Cataract Surgery by Phacoemulsification Method in Patients with Keratoconus

Purpose: To examine the visual and refractive results of cataract surgery by phacoemulsification method in patients with keratoconus. Methods: In this retrospective study, the files of patients with keratoconus, who underwent phacoemulsification between 2008 and 2017, were evaluated. The intraocular lens power calculation formula was SRK/T. Post-operative visual and refractive results were anal...

Femtolaser cataract surgery: how to evaluate this technology, read the literature, and avoid possible complications.

Femtosecond laser: the future of cataract surgery?

Cataract surgery techniques have evolved from intracapsular cataract surgery to extracapsular cataract surgery (ECCE) to phacoemulsification, with a progressive decrease in the size of the surgical wound and increased safety and predictability of the surgical procedure. Cataract surgical techniques and intraocular lens (IOL) technologies continue to evolve to provide patients with the optimum p...

مقایسه دو روش بیومتری التراسوند (Ultrasound) و لنستار (Lenstar) در تعیین طول محور چشم و میزان عیب انکساری پس از عمل جراحی کاتاراکت

Background and Objective: Ocular biometry refers to the measurement of the axial length of the eye and thickness of the intraocular structures. This process is routinely performed for all patients before cataract surgery. The accuracy of the biometric data is directly associated with the refractive status after cataract surgery. Currently, two methods of biometry, namely ultrasound and optical ...
