Clinical application and research progress of different types of intraocular lens

Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2022, Vol 37, Issue 7

Abstract

As a common eye disease, cataract is the first-leading cause of blindness in the world. Currently, there is no drug to treat it, and surgery is the only effective way. With the development of modern ophthalmic surgical technology and the updating and upgrading of the design and function of intraocular lens (IOL), people have higher and higher requirements for visual quality. Cataract phacoemulsification combined with IOL implantation has transformed from a simple vision restoration to personalized refractive surgery. In order to meet the needs of patients with different needs to obtain better visual quality after surgery, IOL has experienced the development from monofocal to multifocal, spherical to aspherical, as well as the clinical application of astigmatic IOL and various functional IOLs, which also provides more choices for patients. Fully understanding the advantages and characteristics of different types of IOLs, according to the patient's own eye conditions, daily eye habits and needs, individualized selection of IOL implantation plays a crucial role in the recovery and satisfaction of visual quality. Therefore, this article will review different types of IOLs from the aspects of design and classification, postoperative clinical effects and adaptation to the population, and provide guidance for the selection of IOLs.
