Long-term real-life outcomes of the Clareon® hydrophobic intraocular lens: the Clarte study in 191 eyes : 3-years real-life outcomes of the Clareon® intraocular lens.

Background: To describe and analyze the real-life refractive, functional and safety outcomes of the Clareon® intraocular lens (IOL) after 3 years.

Methods: Data was collected retrospectively for observational purposes between July 2017 and December 2019 in the ophthalmology department of Desgenettes military hospital in Lyon, France. Eyes that underwent cataract surgery with Claeron® implantation were consecutively included.

Should Artificial Tears Be Used During the Preoperative Assessment of Toric IOLs Before Age-Related Cataract Surgery? The TORIDE Study.

Purpose: To assess the impact of the use of artificial tears during the preoperative work-up performed before age-related cataract surgery, when a toric intraocular lens (IOL) was indicated.

Methods: This was a monocentric prospective study assessing 73 eyes of 51 patients, included consecutively after a preoperative work-up performed without artificial tears (no artificial tears group), when a toric IOL was indicated. Each included patient underwent a second series of examinations: biometry using the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) and topography using the OPD-Scan II (Nidek), 1 minute after artificial tears instillation (artificial tears group; hyaluronate de sodium 0.
