Permanent surgical treatment for presbyopia remains the hereto unconquered “last frontier” in anterior segment surgery. Over the years, continuing innovations like Phaco, Radial Keratotomy, LASIK, and premium intraocular lenses have pushed toward this ultimate goal, but now anterior segment surgery is closer than ever with the advent of modern laser-assisted presbyopic lens implantation. Let Refractive Lens Exchange: A Surgical Treatment for Presbyopia, the first book of its kind, be your guide to this fifth wave of innovation in the surgical treatment of presbyopia. Dr. Ming X. Wang, MD, PhD, joined by Associate Editor Dr. Tracy S. Swartz, OD, MS, FAAO and more than 30 expert contributors, compiled this remarkable book. Never before has there been a book dedicated to all aspects of refractive lens exchange as a permanent treatment for presbyopia, both medically and surgically. Highlights of Refractive Lens Exchange include: Overview of all surgical treatments for presbyopia Dysfunctional lens syndrome and pathophysiology Patient education and preoperative assessment Marketing refractive lens exchange as a surgical treatment for presbyopia New technologies in assessing dysfunctional lens syndrome New technologies in mapping cornea and lens for refractive lens exchange Retinal issues related to refractive lens exchange Presbyopic lens types, indications, and contraindications for refractive lens exchange Lens- and cornea-based astigmatism correction Intraocular calculations for post refractive surgery eyes for refractive lens exchange Intraoperative wavefront technology 3D high-definition microsurgical visualization and positioning technology Femtosecond laser application in refractive lens exchange Postoperative care and complication management YAG capsulotomy after refractive lens exchange: indications and alternatives Postoperative care and complication management Keratorefractive enhancement Designed for newcomers as well as seasoned eyecare professionals, Refractive Lens Exchange: A Surgical Treatment for Presbyopia is the first book to guide ophthalmic surgeons, optometrists, and technicians through this exciting new field that is emerging as a safe and effective primary surgical treatment for presbyopia.

This book addresses an increasing need that is confronting ophthalmologists all over the world today, and that is the growing number of previous refractive surgery patients. A unique contribution by internationally recognized leaders to address all aspects of lens-based surgery on previous refractive patients, including issues surrounding when to intervene, biometry, considerations for the surgical procedure itself, lens choices, management of complications, and views into the future. The text represents an excellent opportunity for ophthalmologists to experience increased satisfaction from their practices, improve the financial health of their practices, and feel the gratitude of patients for the enhanced quality of their lives. Presents the problem in a comprehensive way so that the ophthalmic surgeon in private practice would find answers to the common questions like: When is the right time to replace the lens in an eye that had refractive lens surgery before hand? How do we do it? What are the pitfalls? How to avoid complications? How do we perform correct IOL power calculation in eyes developing cataract after earlier refractive corneal surgery? And finally outcomes of different approaches and future developments have been discussed. Also includes a chapter by Kezirian and Waring on the opposite topic; laser surgery after intraocular implants and answer the questions by bringing together the expertise of Internationally well-known specialists in the field. Contains the knowledge of the physicists—of the pioneers who developed the first formulas—and of the surgeons in daily practice who are handling over the practical tools in the section of IOL Power Calculation. In the section of Decision Making, top surgeons gave their advice and personal approach. In the section of The Surgery, experienced surgeons gave some pearls when starting surgery in eyes that had refractive surgery earlier. This book useful for ophthalmologists, ophthalmic surgeons, refractive surgeons.

The IOL technical specifications, the clinical data, and the necessary clinical and surgical skills comprise the scientific foundation for achieving a "premium" refractive outcome. To consistently achieve patient satisfaction, however, requires mastering the art of patient and IOL selection, communicating and counseling effectively, and providing a "premium" patient experience. This is a nontraditional book in which multiple experts are separately asked to discuss controversial subjects in a reader-friendly format. There is balanced coverage of all of the available refractive IOLs, as well as those that may become available in the near future. A major emphasis is placed on avoiding and managing complications or potentially dissatisfied patients. There are more than 200 chapters that are organized into 14 major sections, over 300 images, 100 tables, and 12 sidebars that cover every aspect of refractive IOL clinical practice. This is a comprehensive educational resource addressing the most demanding and rapidly evolving area in cataract and refractive surgery today and the first book to cover both the clinical and nonclinical aspects of offering refractive IOL services.
