| Summary: |
The aim of the study is to
present new trends in IOL technology and their influence
on cataract surgery. Since first IOL implantation in
1949, there were breathtaking advances in IOL technology
and surgery procedures. Nowadays, patients are more
demanding and they expect
a high level of visual acuity and quality of life after
cataract surgery. To provide the excellent visual acuity,
improve safety of surgical procedures by complications
reduction and to make the rehabilitation short, cataract
extraction is performed by microincision and foldable
IOLs are inserted using injectors. Modern technology
enables aberrations reduction by aspheric IOL
construction and harmful influence of UV and blue light
using filters. Astigmatism can be corrected using toric
IOLs and multicofal IOLs make patients spectacle free.
In this article we present review of modern IOL.
Advantages and disadvantages as well as some limits for
using different types of implants were described. |
