A concise review and comprehensive guide to improving cataract
surgery outcomes Significant advances have been made in refractive
surgery in the last decade. Eye surgeons today can leverage many
cutting-edge intraocular lens (IOL) technologies such as
multifocal, extended depth of field, toric, accommodating, and
aspheric. Concurrent innovations including optics,
phacoemulsification, superior keratometry and biometry, and
posterior cornea evaluation have resulted in improved cataract
surgery outcomes. Recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of
cataracts have dramatically improved patient satisfaction following
cataract surgery, yet common and rare complications still occur
such as dry eye, endophthalmitis, and retinal detachment.
Furthermore, only 80% of cataract surgery procedures bring patients
to within 0.5 diopters of their needed refraction. Optimizing
Suboptimal Results Following Cataract Surgery: Refractive and
Non-Refractive Management presents the latest techniques for
achieving optimal results and overcoming complications in cataract
surgery. Internationally renowned ophthalmic surgery pioneers Priya
Narang and William Trattler have created an unparalleled guide to
overcoming complex cases and residual refractive errors. The book
starts with six chapters on suboptimal causes and considerations,
followed by dedicated sections covering refractive and
non-refractive enhancements. The fourth section features chapters
on keratoconus, cystoid macular edema, endophthalmitis, toxic
anterior segment syndrome, and vitritis, as well as intraoperative
aberrometry, futuristic approaches and advancements, and telescopic
IOLs. Key Highlights Refractive enhancement procedures including
corneal-based procedures such as astigmatic keratotomy, LASIK, PRK,
and SMILE; IOL exchange; piggyback IOL; toric IOL; and premium IOLs
and associated problems Nonrefractive enhancement procedures
including dysphotopsias and surgical management, bullous
keratopathy and endothelial keratoplasty, complex IOL issues such
as malpositioned IOL and capsular bag, and posterior capsular
rupture and IOL lens implantation Practical tips and steps to
prevent and manage undesired outcomes 30 surgical videos posted
online highlight a diverse array of complex cases and technical
advances to help prevent suboptimal results Ophthalmologists,
ophthalmology residents, fellows, and subspecialists will greatly
benefit from the significant pearls and knowledge presented in this
indispensable cataract surgery resource. This book includes
