There is much experimental evidence showing that blue light poses a hazard to macular health induces retinal toxicity and damage.

The extremes of intraoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) are deleterious and can lead to visual loss

Cataract surgery performed with high irrigation pressures result in intraoperative IOPs that are typically many times higher than the physiological IOP.

Utilizing accurate Lens Constants for specific IOL models and employing an appropriate new generation IOL formula can improve the refractive outcome of a cataract procedure; Manufacturer recommended lens constants, either…

This white paper provides an insight into the importance of keratometry readings, particularly for toric IOL power calculations, and it indicates that biometers should not be used interchangeably

Managing ocular surface diseases (OSD), especially dry-eye disease (DED), is critical to improve visual outcomes and patient satisfaction after cataract surgery.

The most important distinguishing material features of Water Surface Technology lenses are those at the surface of the lens and in particular, surface wettability.

ARGOS^® biometer utilizes swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) technology to measure ocular dimensions

Multifocal (MF) contact lenses are designed to provide functional vision to presbyopic patients of different ages, refractive errors and pupil sizes
