Technical analysis of multifocal lens implants (IOLs) and astigmatism lens implants (Toric IOLs)

July 14, 2009

FDA Approves Alcon's AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +3.0 D Intraocular Lens - New Lens Corrects For Cataracts With Presbyopia | www.medicalnewstoday.com

 There is a sea-change in cataract/lens implant (IOL) surgery.  More than ever before, patients with cataracts want to able to see well without the need for glasses or contact lenses. Standard IOLs give very good vision, but many patients have pre-existing astigmatism and need correction for that with a Toric IOL, and those who want to see well for distance and near will require either a multifocal IOL (Alcon ReStor, AMO ReZoom or Technis ZM900 IOL) or an accommodative IOL (Bausch and Lomb Crystalens).        Alcon's two IOLs, their  Acrysof Toric IOL for astigmatism, and their newest multifocal IOL, the Alcon ReStor +3.0 D are showing good usage      With respect to astigmatism, the two existing IOLs are the Staar Toric IOL and the Alcon Toric IOL, both of which work well. The multifocal Aspheric Alcon ReStor + 3.00 D is showing strong penetration because the + 3.00 D add allows for intermediate (computer vision) as well as near vision and less haloes and glare .

eye drop corticosteroids (topical steroids) for LASIK and cataract surgery and dry eye

June 23, 2009

steroids in eye surgery | www.siriontherapeutics.com

    There are several potent cortisteroids (steroids) in the form of eye drops, which ophthalmologists use daily to manage postoperative healing after LASIK surgery cataract surgery, and intraolcular lens implant surgery.  In addition, some steroid drops can be used for short intervals of time in managaing dry eye disease. These include pred forte (Allergan), omnipred (Alcon), Maxidex (Alcon), Lotemax (Bausch and Lomb) and Durezol (Sirion).     These steroid drops have slghtly different biochemical structures and side effect profiles. In general,the more potent the steroid, the more likely it has a side effect of intraocular pressure rise (glaucoma risk) and cataract formation. Durezol, a newer topical steroid from Sirion Therapeutics, has excellent potency and slightly less of a side effects. Lotemax (Bausch and Lomb) has found a niche in the management of dry eye disease, being used for short intervals (a few weeks) in dry eye management, as other drops such as restasis get on board.
