The appearance of images through a multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) was simulated. The optical transfer function (OTF) of a model eye containing the multifocal lens was measured and divided by the OTF of the model eye with a monofocal IOL. This ratio was used to filter digital images, generating simulations that represent the retinal images seen through a multifocal intraocular lens when viewe...

We report three cases of extracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation in two patients with anterior megalophthalmus. This is the first report, to our knowledge, of intraocular lens implantation in this rare condition.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology 2008, 19:357–362 Purpose of review Corneal refractive procedures have become increasingly popular over the past decade allowing patients to have excellent uncorrected visual acuity and spectacle independence. As these individuals mature, many will eventually undergo cataract surgery. With the advances in modern cataract surgery and lens implant technology, parti...

This 30-year-old patient had a high myopia and with-the-rule astigmatism. Her best-corrected-visual-acuity was 20/20 with -6.75 -2.50 x 10. cornea an asymmetric bowtie, we were concerned laser vision correction. We then decided to implant toric phakic intraocular lens (Visian ICL® toric) and, 1 week after surgery, she J1 uncorrected. Note the central anterior vaulting of away from crystalline l...

implantation of intraocular lens with iris-fixation is a safe, efficient and predictable surgical procedure, which empowers the refractive surgeon with singular capabilities. among their advantages are the reversibility, preservation of accommodation and a broad spectrum of ametropic correction. this lens also appears to be a valid option, with a favorable complication rate, for the treatment o...
