To report the safety and effectiveness of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) using the SLT mode of the VISULAS green laser in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Twelve months results are presented. Retrospective extension in 4 German centers of an initially prospective interventional multicenter 3-month clinical investigation using the VISULAS green SLT (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany) in patients with POAG who either needed treatment escalation or commenced treatment and had an IOP ≥ 17mmHg at baseline, with no previous glaucoma or other ocular surgery.

Purpose: Evaluate postoperative visual performance in patients with bilaterally implanted AT LARA or AT LARA/AT LISA tri (Carl Zeiss AG, Jena, Germany) intraocular lenses.
Methods: Multicentered, comparative, open-label, retrospective/prospective study. Post-IOL implantation, patients were prospectively enrolled into this study; preoperative patient data were collected retrospectively.
Purpose: To evaluate the initial visual outcomes of Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) Pro® using a 2 MHz femtosecond laser (VisuMax 800, Carl Zeiss Meditec) and to assess the efficacy, safety, predictability, accuracy, and complication rate.
Methods: This retrospective analysis included eyes which underwent the SMILE Pro® procedure using VisuMax 800 femtosecond laser to correct myopia. All surgeries were performed by one surgeon (DB).
We describe a novel technique that uses precision pulse capsulotomy (PPC) to perform a secondary capsulotomy for the management of anterior capsule contraction syndrome (ACCS), a condition that comprises a late complication after cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Micropulse secondary capsulotomy offers a controlled and safe approach for patients with severe anterior capsule contraction syndrome and may be considered as an alternative surgical technique.
