2. 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 ...

3. Intraocular lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens

   Cataract surgery with implantation of a toric IOL is essentially the same as cataract surgery with a conventional IOL. Like toric contact lenses, toric IOLs have different powers in different meridians of the lens, and they must be positioned on the correct meridian to reverse the preexisting astigmatism. If the toric IOL is not on the correct ...

4. Multifocal intraocular lens - Wikipedia

   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. [2]

5. Phakic intraocular lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phakic_intraocular_lens

   A phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) is an intraocular lens that is implanted surgically into the eye to correct refractive errors without removing the natural lens (also known as "phakos", hence the term). Intraocular lenses that are implanted into eyes after the eye's natural lens has been removed during cataract surgery are known as pseudophakic.

6. Cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract_surgery

   Cataract surgery in small animals such as dogs and cats is a routine ophthalmic procedure with a success rate of around 90%, and is usually better for eyes with relatively recent cataract development. The presence of other ocular problems may reduce the success rate. Procedures are similar to those for humans.
