This study aimed to evaluate the initial clinical outcomes of and patient satisfaction with the newly introduced extended monofocal Evolux™ intraocular lens following cataract surgery. A retrospective study was conducted, involving 18 patients (36 eyes) who received Evolux™ lenses bilaterally. The inclusion criteria comprised individuals over 40 years old with no active eye diseases, excluding cataracts, and no postoperative complications.

Setting: Single-center.
Design: Retrospective observational study.
Purpose: To compare 2 techniques to correct low astigmatism during implantable collamer lens (ICL) surgery: astigmatic opposite clear corneal incisions (OCCIs) and toric ICL (T-ICL).
Setting: Arruzafa Ophthalmological Hospital, Cordoba, Spain.
Design: Randomized prospective comparative study.
Purpose: This study is to describe the clinical outcome of penetrating keratoplasty combined with implantation of a novel intraocular lens with an artificial iris, aided by continuous vitreous chamber infusion, in patients with severe aniridia and corneal alterations.
Methods: This was a prospective single-center case series study involving five patients with corneal alterations and aniridia. All subjects underwent simultaneous penetrating keratoplasty and implantation of a new intraocular lens with an artificial iris with the assistance of infusion into the vitreous chamber to regulate intraocular pressure during the surgical procedure.
Purpose: To compare two aspheric ablation profiles in myopic refractive surgery using different asphericity targets.
Methods: Patients underwent laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with the WaveLight EX500 laser platform (Alcon, WaveLight Laser Technologie). Asymmetric surgery was performed, programming the wavefront-optimized (WFO) ablation profile in one eye and the custom-Q (CQ) profile in the contralateral eye.
