    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract_surgery

    Two main classes of cataract surgical procedures are currently in common use throughout the world: phacoemulsification, and extracapsular cataract extraction. Intracapsular cataract extraction has been superseded where the facilities for surgery under a microscope are available except for cases where the lens capsule cannot be retained, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifocal_intraocular_lens

    People who have a multifocal intraocular lens after their cataract is removed may be less likely to need additional glasses compared with people who have standard monofocal lenses. [2] People receiving multifocal lenses may experience more visual problems, such as glare or haloes (rings around lights), than with monofocal lenses.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_small_incision...

    Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is an evolution of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE); the lens is removed from the eye through a self-sealing scleral tunnel wound. A well-constructed scleral tunnel is held closed by internal pressure, is watertight, and does not require suturing.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-scan_ultrasound_biometry

    A-scan ultrasound biometry, commonly referred to as an A-scan (short for Amplitude scan), uses an ultrasound instrument for diagnostic testing. [1] A-scan biometry measures the axial length (AL) of the eye prior to cataract surgery in order to assess the refractive power of the intraocular lens that will be implanted.

  9. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

    The aim of an accurate intraocular lens power calculation is to provide an intraocular lens (IOL) that fits the specific needs and desires of the individual patient. The development of better instrumentation for measuring the eye's axial length (AL) and the use of more precise mathematical formulas to perform the appropriate calculations have significantly improved the accuracy with which the ...
