A review of intraocular lenses. 1984

H M Findley, and R C DiIorio

Intraocular lens implants are being used in ever increasing numbers for the correction of aphakia. For that reason optometrists should familiarize themselves with the types of implants used and the advantages and disadvantages of each. This article will review the types of implants the optometrist is likely to see. The changing trends in implant surgery will be considered along with explanations for the changes. Several studies of patients with implants are reviewed. Finally, a format for evaluating implant patients is presented.
