Improving cataract surgery in eyes with pseudoexfoliation
May 1st 2016Cataract surgery in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome is associated with increased intraoperative and postoperative risks. Strategies for improving outcomes include attention to IOL selection, and one surgeon describes why he is using a particular IOL.

Combination of NSAIDs and steroids reduces CME outcomes
April 15th 2016A hot topic in cataract surgery is alternative ways to administer perioperative medications with the goal of lowering the incidence of cystoid macular edema (CME). One way to achieve that goal would be the combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and transzonular steroids.

Intracanalicular drug depot may fill unmet need for better topical therapy
April 15th 2016A sustained-release dexamethasone intracanalicular depot may be able to treat post-cataract surgery inflammation without causing spikes in IOP. The product’s one-time administration may also improve compliance and convenience.

IOL centration stable 30 days after implantation, study confirms
February 19th 2016Ophthalmologists spend significant amounts of time during cataract surgery trying to precisely center an implanted IOL to achieve the best possible vision after surgery. The high success rate of cataract surgery suggests that in most cases, they succeed.

How patient movement can interfere with femto laser-assisted cataract surgery
January 12th 2016Femto laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) is a latest advance in technology that is transforming traditional cataract surgery into a refractive procedure. Multiple studies have shown that laser-assisted cataract surgery can increase precision and reproducibility of the anterior capsulotomy, reduce effective phacoemulsion time, cause less postoperative inflammation to the anterior chamber, and possibly reduce surgically-induced endothelial cell damage. However, it is discussed much less often that the safeguards built into FLACS instruments can fail and allow the femto laser grid pattern to be delivered into the cornea.

How myopia shaped the attitudes of Theodore Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan
January 1st 2016Severe myopia affected the attitudes of both Theodore Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan, but in opposite ways, according to biographer Edmund Morris.“Since both of them became aware of their myopia in their early teens, it was obviously a formative experience for both of them,” Morris told Ophthalmology Times.

Cataract surgery diagnostics spotlight continues to shine on integration with surgical technologies
December 1st 2015The trend for advances in intraoperative imaging systems and linking of diagnostic and surgical technology continued in 2015, bringing cataract surgeons more opportunity for increasing workflow efficiency and improving patient outcomes.

Intracorneal inlays for the correction of presbyopia and low hyperopia
December 1st 2015New alloplastic materials are being used as intracorneal inlays to offer predictable and safe refractive surgical correction of presbyopia and low hyperopia. The major problem with such inlays is the wound-healing response following their insertion; however, they can easily be removed.

Presbyopia therapy: Comparison of corneal versus lens-based options
December 1st 2015The authors assess the quantitative and qualitative aspects of vision following various lens- and corneal-based therapies for presbyopia. In many cases the KAMRA corneal inlay offers a long-term solution. It can easily be removed if the patient is not satisfied with the outcome.
