AIM: To compare visual quality in cataract patients with low corneal astigmatism who underwent intraocular lens(IOL) implantation, and evaluate effects of low levels of astigmatism on visual outcomes in multifocal pseudophakic eyes.METHODS: This retrospective review of clinical records comprised patients ...

Cataract surgery, also known as cataract extraction or phacoemulsification, is the primary treatment for cataracts, which involve the removal of the cloudy natural lens and its replacement with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). LASIK is designed to reshape the cornea to correct refractive errors,...
Admittedly, the 2 surgical procedures have different indications, so the comparison is only an approximate approach to address the possibility of healthy patient bias. Nonetheless, the present study may be the highest-quality evidence we will have to address the underlying question because there could...
Outcomes of cataract extraction with multifocal intraocular lens implantation: functional status and quality of life Ophthalmology (1997) W.A. Maxwell et al. A United States cost-benefit comparison of an apodized, diffractive, presbyopia-correcting, multifocal intraocular lens and a conventional monofocal...
This study tried to compare the clinical outcomes of femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy (FSAK) and toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for astigmatism correction and identify factors affecting the efficacy of FSAK and toric IOL implan

(43.9%) as indicated inTable 10where outcomes for BCVA are presented by presence or absence of ocular co-pathology. Comparison with outcomes for best-measured VA (top three rows inTable 11) show that these two measures of acuity gave closely similar results overall and by presence or absence...
This study provides pragmatic data on current cataract surgery outcomes using data collated from a large multi-centre database over 4 years. Overall, we found the median visual acuity improved from 0.50 before surgery to 0.10 logMAR after surgery. Comparison with the Cataract National Dataset analysi...
For a comparison, the portable SEC slit-lamp device was selected. SEC is a smartphone attachment that fits above the light source and camera lens of a smartphone (Figure 2). The device has been approved as a medical device in Japan (Japan Medical Device registration number: 13B2X10198030101...
