Visual simulation through different IOLs
Examining patients with different corneal profiles using adaptive optics
Currently, the main aim of cataract surgery is to provide the best visual quality to patients. The design of the intraocular lens (IOL) implanted after cataract extraction plays an important role to achieve this purpose.
Various designs
Then, if one takes into consideration the available designs of IOLs and the changes that corneal refractive surgery provokes, it should be interesting to know which current designs of IOLs could provide an optimal visual quality in patients with various corneal profiles (i.e., virgin corneas, as well as corneas that have undergone prior corneal refractive surgery for both myopia and hyperopia correction).

Evaluating the clinical performance of ZEISS AT ELANA and the new ’ELISA’* approach
August 5th 2025In this insightful analysis, Dr. Joong Hun Kim presents real-world clinical outcomes with bilateral implantation of ZEISS AT ELANA 841P. Dr. Kim recommends AT ELANA® 841P as an excellent option for patients undergoing cataract surgery as its fully trifocal optical design translates into a full range of vision. He also introduces the so-called ‘ELISA’ approach for patients requiring astigmatic correction in one eye only, combining AT ELANA 841P and ZEISS AT LISA tri toric 939MP. Early objective and subjective clinical data from this novel approach reveal promising visual outcomes and high patient satisfaction
