Residual Refractive Error

FRANKFURT, Germany — Five-year outcomes with the presbyopic phakic IPCL from EyeOL UK show good and stable vision for distance and near.

SMILE proved effective in correcting residual myopia and myopic astigmatism in pseudophakic eyes, leading to significant visual acuity gain.

When managing residual refractive error, physicians should treat the source of the problem and use the least invasive intervention possible, according to a speaker at the Real World Ophthalmology meeting.

SAN FRANCISCO — Patients who have received a multifocal lens may be in need of further refractive error correction, and with many multifocal lenses entering the market, this is something refractive surgeons should be aware of and prepared for, as well as discuss with patients, according to a speaker here.
