Is cataract surgery the best way to lower IOP?
May 22nd 2008Extraction of cataracts lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) to normal levels in glaucoma patients, and may in fact be a better treatment option than combined surgery, according to a study presented at this year's meeting of the Italian Society of Ophthalmology.
LASIK corrects residual error after multifocal IOL implantation
May 19th 2008Wavefront-guided LASIK is safe and effective in correcting residual refractive error after diffractive multifocal IOL implantation, according to a study published in the March 2008 issue of the Journal of Refractive Surgery.
Post-LASIK contact lens launched
May 12th 2008A hybrid contact lens designed for eyes that have suffered corneal trauma or undergone either refractive surgery or penetrating keratoplasty has been launched by SynergEyes Inc, US. The SynergEyes PS lens can also be used in eyes with degenerative corneal conditions.
Gebauer launches DSAEK/ALK single use set with reusable artificial anterior chamber
May 6th 2008Gebauer has launched an extension to its single-use SL Keratome, enabling surgeons to perform corneal transplantation surgery with its new, combined single-use DSAEK/ALK set and reusable artificial anterior chamber.
Infection incidence increasing despite improving diagnoses
May 1st 2008The American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) survey results for 2008 pointed out some changing trends in infectious keratitis after LASIK and PRK compared with previous surveys conducted in 2002 and 2005, said Terry Kim, MD.
Visian ICL "impressive" for myopic correction
May 1st 2008Outcomes in a cohort including more than 5000 eyes support the conclusion that an implantable collamer lens (Visian ICL; STAAR Surgical) is a safe, predictable, and very effective method for correcting high-to-moderate myopia, said John R. Moran, MD, PhD.
UV toxicity culprit in post-LASIK dry eye
May 1st 2008Hypoesthesia is not the origin of post-LASIK punctuate epithelial keratopathy or the so-called dry eye syndrome. Rather, these sequelae may represent a phototoxic effect of treatment with the ultraviolet excimer laser, said Carmen Barraquer-Coll, MD.
Drop can help optimize ocular surface before and after refractive surgery
May 1st 2008A new lubricating eye drop (blink Tears, Advanced Medical Optics) with the active ingredient polyethylene glycol is designed to provide a balance between viscosity and retention without sacrificing a patient's visual quality. It can help optimize the ocular surface before and after refractive surgery, aiding postoperative visual outcomes and patient satisfaction.
