For implants such as the ones like IOL used for correction of vision of the eyes, besides the quality and performance of materials, biocompatibility is an issue of major concern. The material scientists have been working on the development of materials for IOLs targeting the needs arising out ...

Depending on the location of the fixation, intraocular lenses can either be anterior or posterior chamber lenses [70,73]. Modern cataract surgery is best when the fixated IOL is inside the capsular bag but if it is not damaged after the surgery, IOL can be positioned at a different location...
Intraocular Lenses Stepping into the Ring of Premium Practice What’s holding surgeons back from embarking on the premium IOL journey? Experts weigh in. Intraocular Lenses Review’s Annual Intraocular Lens Survey Cataract surgeons share their thoughts on the various lens options available, from monofoc...

intraocular lensespresbyopiaPresbyopia is an age-related physiological condition that causes a gradual loss in the ability to focus on near objects, secondary to changes in zonular fibers, ciliary muscle and crystalline lens. Different surgical approaches are being pursued to surgically compensate ...
This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes following implantation of trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) or a hybrid multifocal-extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL in cataract or refractive lens exchange surgeries. We examined 13 comparativ
Intraocular lenses 1. Introduction This mini-review of “far peripheral vision” was stimulated by an evaluation into the cause of “dark shadows” that are seen by some intraocular lens (IOL) patients in their temporal visual fields (Davison, 2000,Henderson and Geneva, 2015,Holladay and Simpson...

It depends on the surgeon. Proponents of the Verisyse IOL will cite a greater risk of cataractogenesis, while Visian loyalists will voice their concerns over endothelial cell loss with anterior chamber lenses. Ease of surgery is also debatable – while implantation is easier with the Visian lens...
