Leftover Astigmatism: The Missing Link Between Measured and Calculated Posterior Corneal AstigmatismLeftover astigmatism is clinically substantial. Because it is included in IOL cylinder power calculations based on refractive outcome, it may explain why methods of IOL cylinder power calculation using refractive outcome–based adjustments to anterior corneal astigmatism are more successful.
Autorefraction as an Objective Method to Evaluate Accuracy of Intraocular Lens Calculation FormulasAUTOref is a useful method with adequate accuracy to determine spherical and astigmatic outcome and equally or more effective in being able to discriminate between spherical outcome formulas. Corneal Epithelium Thickness and Refractive Changes After Myopic Laser Corneal Refractive SurgeryCorneal epithelium thickens similarly after LASIK and SMILE, being slightly higher after SMILE.

Predictors of Femtosecond Laser–Assisted Arcuate Keratotomy Efficacy for Astigmatism Correction in Cataract SurgeryThe incision-to-limbus distance was a significant independent predictor of SIA, and inclusion of this parameter may further improve the accuracy of the nomogram.
Large Population Outcomes of Small Incision Lenticule Extraction in Young Myopic PatientsSMILE achieved excellent outcomes for myopia up to −9.00 D with cylinder up to −5.50 D for a large population in patients without presbyopia. Through-Focus Response of Extended Depth of Focus Intraocular LensesThe five EDOF lenses investigated differ mainly by their different weighting of energy between the far and intermediate ranges.

Comparison of Bilateral Reading Performance Among Two Presbyopia-Correcting Intraocular LensesThe Synergy IOL appears to provide better reading speed and is less sensitive to refractive error. Both lenses provided excellent distance, intermediate, and near vision.
Objective and Subjective Quality of Vision After SMILE for High Myopia and AstigmatismSatisfaction was high following SMILE for high myopia. As expected, there was an increase in QoV symptoms, mainly glare and starbursts.IOL Power Calculation in Eyes Undergoing Combined Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty and Cataract SurgeryConstant optimization is beneficial for combined DMEK and phacoemulsification. Predicting postoperative corneal flattening may improve the results of IOL power accuracy.
