TECHNOLOGY OF ACCOMMODATIVE INTRAOCULAR LENSES
Presbyopia is a natural condition that induces difficulty to read in near distances in patients with age over 40 years approximately. The gradual loss of accommodative capacity to focus near objects in presbyopic patients is due to variations in the crystalline lens, ciliary muscle as in zonular […]
PREMIUM INTRAOCULAR LENSES FOR THE CORRECTION OF THE PRESBYOPIA
The crystalline lens by means of variations in his amplitude of accommodation allows see clear at all distances, as well it provides transparency in his youth. Nevertheless, with the age from 45 years approximately a loss in the ability of accommodation that difficult the observation […]
PREVENTION OF POSTERIOR CAPSULAR OPACIFICATION
Cataract surgery is one of the most common surgical interventions worldwide to restore vision with a high success rate and patient cataract surgery satisfaction.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE AND POSTOPERATIVE VISUAL OUTCOMES OF SMALL-INCISION LENTICULE EXTRACTION
Since the introduction of the Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) in 1990, the surgical technique for correcting refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism by means of laser has advanced considerably. Concretely the development of Laser Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) has contributed specially in the innovations developed in corneal refractive surgery. Currently, […]
APPLICATIONS OF FEMTOSECOND LASER-ASSISTED CATARACT SURGERY
The crystalline lens is a structure located inside of the eyeball that in the youth is transparent, but nevertheless with the age is opacified. Although age is considered to be one of the principal reasons of opacification of the crystalline lens, it has been proved that factors like exposure to ultraviolet radiation among others influence in his […]
