Purpose: To objectively determine if angle kappa materially influenced clinical outcomes or patient-reported satisfaction and visual quality of patients implanted with a trifocal intraocular lens (IOL).

Methods: This was a non-interventional study of clinical outcomes. Subjects were patients choosing to be bilaterally implanted with a trifocal IOL (PanOptix) who were then evaluated 3 months postoperative.

Purpose: To assess 5-year effectiveness and safety of 2 iStent® trabecular micro-bypass stents in eyes with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) not controlled on 1 medication.

Materials And Methods: This prospective, interventional, single-arm, multi-surgeon study (NCT #1252862, clinicaltrials.gov) enrolled eyes with OAG, preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) of 18-30 mmHg on 1 ocular hypotensive medication, and 22-38 mmHg after medication washout.

Purpose: To evaluate the defocus curve and patient satisfaction after implantation of an extended depth of focus (EDOF) toric IOL when both eyes were targeted for emmetropia and when the non-dominant eye was targeted for mini monovision (-0.50D).

Methods: A prospective unmasked randomized clinical trial in three clinical practices in the USA.

Purpose: To evaluate the long-term intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect and safety parameters following treatment with two trabecular micro-bypass stents and topical prostaglandin in phakic eyes with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) not controlled on two preoperative medications.

Methods: This prospective, single-arm, unmasked study enrolled 39 qualified phakic eyes with OAG not controlled on 2 medications, preoperative medicated IOP of 18-30 mmHg, and IOP following medication washout of 22-38 mmHg. Two trabecular micro-bypass stents were implanted as a standalone procedure, and travoprost was started on postoperative day 1.

Unlabelled: Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) articles published between 2008 and 2015 that contain clinical outcomes data were reviewed and graded for quality, impression, and potential bias. All 97 relevant articles (representing 67 893 eyes) provided a positive or neutral impression of LASIK. Industry bias was not evident.

Purpose: To evaluate 3-year safety and intraocular pressure (IOP) following two trabecular microbypass stents in phakic and pseudophakic subjects with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) not controlled on preoperative medication.

Patients And Methods: In this prospective pilot study, phakic or pseudophakic subjects with OAG and IOP between 18 mmHg and 30 mmHg on one preoperative topical ocular hypotensive medication underwent medication washout. Thirty-nine qualified subjects with preoperative unmedicated IOP ≥22 mmHg and ≤38 mmHg received two stents.

Objective: This study utilized a phone survey to characterize patient perceptions of cataract surgery and the manner in which the ophthalmologist contributes to the patient's understanding in electing cataract surgery.

Patients And Methods: Calls were made from a randomized membership list of the American Association of Retired Persons until 1,000 respondents 50 years of age or older had been recruited. Three groups were recruited: persons with no prior diagnosis of cataracts, persons diagnosed with cataracts but who had not had surgery, and persons who had had cataract surgery on both eyes within the past 5 years.
