Purpose: To compare visual outcomes and patient satisfaction after bilateral implantation of a nondiffractive extended vision intraocular lens (IOL) when targeting emmetropia vs mini-monovision.
Setting: Iladevi Cataract & IOL Research Centre, Ahmedabad, India.
Design: Prospective, randomized controlled trial.
Purpose: To evaluate long-term visual outcomes and complications after toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in children with preexisting corneal astigmatism undergoing cataract surgery.
Setting: Iladevi Cataract & IOL Research Center, Ahmedabad, India.
Design: Prospective, interventional case series.

Purpose: To identify the types of corticocapsular adhesions by their preoperative clinical appearance and evaluate the difficulties they pose during cataract surgery.
Setting: Iladevi Cataract & IOL Research Center, Ahmedabad, India.
Methods: Seventy-six eyes with age-related senile cataract scheduled for phacoemulsification were identified as having corticocapsular adhesions.
Cell response to AcrySof intraocular lenses in an Indian population.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the response of AcrySof intraocular lenses (IOLs) in Indian patients regarding the incidence and characteristics of cell deposits after cataract surgery.
- The research involved 64 patients and monitored cell deposits at various intervals post-surgery, with findings indicating deposits appeared early, peaked within the first few months, and mostly resolved within a year.
- Overall, the results showed low incidence and severity of deposits, suggesting good biocompatibility of AcrySof IOLs and effective surgical technique in this population.
