The treatment of retinal detachment has undergone tremendous advancement over the last century

Lens epithelial cell on-growth (LECOG) is one of the phenomena associated with capsular bag biocompatibility that has been reported in many IOLs with different types of biomaterials.

This whitepaper provides a detailed clinical overview of using a near physiologic IOP during cataract surgery.

Limited advancements in contact lens materials and properties have occurred in the monthly replacement category in the past decade

The PRECISION PROFILE^® Design on Alcon multifocal contact lenses is a center-near aspheric design with a smooth power profile, changing continuously from the center of the lens to the periphery of the optic zone.

The mechanisms of action of the HYDRUS Microstent include trabecular meshwork (TM) bypass, Schlemm’s canal scaffolding, and 90 degree span, or about 3 clock-hours of canalicular drainage; the mechanism of action of iStent…

A wettable contact lens surface is critical for maintaining a smooth and stable tear film. PRECISION1™ (verofilcon A) contact lenses have a highly breathable silicone hydrogel core with 51% water content surrounded by a…

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
