Pupil dynamics
This study compares pupil size after three different strategies for intraocular lens (IOL) fixation: anterior iris-fixation, retropupillary iris-fixation, and in-the-bag implantation. The results show that all three strategies do not impair pupil constriction in normal light conditions, but retropupillary iris-fixation results in smaller scotopic pupil sizes compared to the other two methods.

Xactitude!
This study evaluates the xact Mono-EDoF ME4 IOL, a new hybrid monofocal lens with extended depth of focus, in 28 patients undergoing cataract surgery. The results show good functional outcomes for far and intermediate distance visual acuity and low levels of photic phenomena.

The 80th anniversary of David Apple
David J. Apple was a renowned ophthalmic pathologist who made significant contributions to the field of intraocular lens (IOL) research and ophthalmic surgery. He was a medical historian and biographer of Sir Harold Ridley, the inventor of the IOL. Apple founded the Center for Developing World Ophthalmology and was a pioneer in IOL research, improving the world that Ridley's invention had changed. He received numerous honors and awards for his work, including the Life Achievement Honor Award and the ASCRS Innovator's Award.

Comparing preloaded IOL-injector systems
The study compared a new intraocular lens (IOL) injector system, multiSert, against three standard injector systems in porcine eyes. The results showed that multiSert achieved better results in incision enlargement, ease of use, delivery time, and performance when used with the appropriate incision size and implantation method.

Corneal Centre to Periphery: Astigmatism Changes
The study analyzed corneal topography data from 641 elderly patients to assess mid-peripheral astigmatism. It found that central corneal astigmatism differs from mid-peripheral measurements, with a greater difference in patients with against-the-rule, oblique, and high astigmatism. The magnitude of astigmatism decreases with distance from the center, but the axis remains largely unchanged.

Using ANTERION® to assess IOL opacification.
Researchers used high-resolution optical coherence tomography to study the correlation between localized calcification on intraocular lenses and straylight, finding a significant link between the two.

IOL fixed to the capsulotomy!
A European multicenter trial found that a new IOL fixed to a femtosecond laser-made capsulotomy resulted in less decentration, tilt, and rotation, providing excellent visual and refractive outcomes over 12 months.
