Purpose: To evaluate the levels of habituation and its influence on outcome satisfaction in patients who underwent bilateral multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.
Methods: A total of 24 patients underwent bilateral multifocal IOL implantation surgery with the AcrySof IQ PanOptix trifocal diffractive IOL (Alcon Laboratories, Inc) following cataract extraction or for refractive purposes. Data were collected 3 and 6 months after surgery, which included subjective refraction, corrected and uncorrected visual acuity (distance, intermediate, near), a contrast sensitivity test, simulation with the Halo & Glare Simulator (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG), two visual quality surveys, and a slit-lamp examination by an ophthalmologist.
To evaluate the required cumulative dissipated energy (CDE) to fragment the crystalline lens in femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) in relation to lens density and lens thickness. Consecutive eyes that underwent FLACS between September 2014 and March 2017 by a single surgeon using in all cases the same femtosecond laser and phacoemulsification platform were included in our retrospective study. Prior to surgery, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), optical biometry corneal, and crystalline lens tomographies were performed to assess anterior chamber depth (ACD), axial length (AL), and crystalline lens parameters (i.

Methods: Our retrospective clinical trial included a total of 146 eyes where 57 eyes underwent Fs-LASIK and 89 eyes underwent SMILE. Examinations with a Pentacam Scheimpflug device (Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) were performed before surgery, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery.
