Filter by:A cataract is a clouding of the lens that occurs naturally with age. Cataract surgery involves removal of the cloudy lens and replacement with an artificial one. A special laser (femtosecond laser) is now being used to help make cataract surgery safer and more accurate . The femtosecond laser can also be used to correct astigmatism, an irregular curvature of the cornea, at the time of cataract surgery through a procedure called astigmatic keratotomy (AK). This study is gathering information about the specific laser settings that are used to perform astigmatic keratotomies (AK) during cataract surgery. This information will be used to improve the outcomes of patients that receive cataract surgery with astigmatic keratotomies in the future.
The main goal of this study is to evaluate real-world visual outcomes, rotational stability, and patient reported visual disturbances with a non-diffractive extended vision presbyopia and astigmatism correcting intraocular lens in patients with significant corneal astigmatism undergoing bilateral cataract surgery. This is important to ensure optimal results for patients who wish to have intraocular lenses that correct presbyopia and astigmatism, thus giving them a greater independence from spectacles and a better quality of life.
The refractive combination of high hyperopia with high astigmatism is difficult to treat surgically. In addition, there are not many suitable options to offer such patients presenting with this condition. The method used at the EYE Hospital Pristina using fresh lenticule implantation by ReLex-SMILE is safe and effective method. Fresh Corneal Implantation is a safe treatment for hyperopia with high astigmatism comparing with refractive IOL implantation (loss of accommodation, endophthalmitis). Its primary objective is to increase visual acuity, accommodation process, patient satisfaction which makes patient to enjoy a happier life. We believe this study will be the future of refractive surgery for treating high hyperopia.
The aim of this work is to undertake a range of vision-related measures with soft toric contact lenses soft spherical contact lenses and spectacle lens correction across a range of levels of astigmatism.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the TFNT20 low cylinder power intraocular lens when implanted in the eye to replace the natural lens following cataract removal.
The principal hypothesis is to be tested in this work is that vision stability (the primary outcome measure) with a spherical contact lens correction vs. a toric contact lens correction will be the same.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the ACRYSOF® IQ PanOptix® Toric Trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) when implanted in the eye following cataract removal in an Asian population.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the long term (i.e. 24 months) clinical performance of the Visian® Toric Implantable Collamer® Lens (ICL).
The purpose of this study is the investigation of biomechanical properties of the cornea using computer-aided data analysis. Currently, it is known that keratoconus and glaucoma are ocular disease that are associated with biomechanical alterations of the cornea. Corneal ectasia, especially keratoconus, is a corneal disease that leads to an irreversible loss of visual acuity while the cornea becomes steeper, thinner and irregular. For these patients, surgical intervention (e.g. corneal cross-linking) is performed, in case of disease progression. In glaucoma, the information about corneal alterations serves in two ways, first, correct measurement of intra ocular pressure (IOP); second, early diagnosis of suspects before visual field defects are detectable. Especially, the Corvis ST is an air-puff tonometer that measures intraocular pressure, corneal thickness (CCT) as well as dynamic corneal response (DCR) parameters. Most of the DCR parameters are affected by IOP and CCT: Therefore, algorithm are needed to determine parameters without impact of IOP and CCT that are describe the biomechanical properties of the cornea.
The aim of this study is to assess visual and refractive outcomes after Toric Trifocal lens implantation and visual outcomes after laser vision correction (LVC) - ReLex Smile to correct residual refraction after 6 months of Toric Trifocal (IOL) implantation.
