Purpose To investigate the refractive outcomes of eyes with Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) following phacoemulsification. Methods This is a retrospective chart review of patients with FECD who underwent phacoemulsification. Manifest refraction at the early postoperative period (1–6 weeks) and late postoperative period (3–12 months) was collected. The spherical equivalent (SE) and variance of SE from target in diopters (D) were analyzed. Results A total of 219 eyes from 175 FECD patients (73 FLACS, 146 conventional phacoemulsification) were included. In the early postoperative period, when comparing variance from intended target, 62% (n=126) had a SE variance of ≤0.5 D, 22% (n=44) >0.5 D and ≤1 D, and 17% (n=34) >1 D. In the late postoperative period, 62% (n=85) had a SE variance of ≤0.5 D, 19% (n=26) >0.5 D and ≤1 D, and 20% (n=27) >1 D. There was no difference in the variance of SE comparing FLACS versus conventional phacoemulsification in either the early postoperative period (p=0.78) or the late postoperative period (p=0.29). Conclusion Patients with mild-to-moderate FECD had favorable refractive outcomes with phacoemulsification. There was no difference in refractive outcomes in eyes with FECD between the group that underwent FLACS versus the group that underwent conventional phacoemulsification.

“…Today, cataract surgery is one of the most frequent procedures executed worldwide. It is easy to imagine that it will increase in future, due to the rise of the mean age of the overall population (26). It is a typically highly successful procedure, rates of intra-operative complications have been recently reported to range between 3.8 and 8.4% internationally (5,6,(10)(11)(12)(13)(14).…”

“…The pursuit in providing continuously better results after this kind of surgery, also due to higher patient expectations, push physicians to reduce the incidence of complications (26). For this reason, identifying and stratifying patient preoperative risk factors is a topic of increasing interest (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14).…”

Aims: To evaluate the ocular and systemic factors involved in cataract surgery complications in a teaching hospital using artificial intelligence.Methods: One eye of 1,229 patients with a mean age of 70.2 ± 10.3 years old that underwent cataract surgery was selected for this study. Ocular and systemic details of the patients were recorded and then analyzed by means of artificial intelligence. A total of 1.25 billion simulations of artificial intelligence learning and testing were conducted on several variables and a customized model of analysis was developed.Results: A total of 73 complications were recorded in this study. According to the analysis performed, the main factors involved in cataract surgery complications were: a surgeon in training, axial length and intraocular lens power. The model predicted how long surgery would last with an error of <6 min compared to the effective time needed.Conclusions: According to the data here obtained, artificial intelligence could be an interesting option to build customized models able to prevent complications and to predict actual surgery time. The customized algorithm option allows the development of better models adaptable to different units as well as the possibility to be calibrated for the same unit along time.

“…Moreover, systemic immunodeficiency conditions such as human immune deficiency virus (HIV), herpes simplex, zoster, or after cancer treatment might increase the risk for postoperative infection and should be taken into account. Thirdly, medications that affect the immune system or the healing ability of a patient should be noted, as, for example, systemic corticosteroid or biological treatments and chemotherapeutic drugs [54]. Finally, pregnant women or breastfeeding women should wait at least 3 months after delivery or cessation of breastfeeding prior to undergoing refractive surgery [55].…”

Purpose: To understand the nature of presbyopia and the various pseudophakic treatment methods available. Findings: Presbyopia is a normal and unavoidable age-related condition that results in the progressive worsening of the ability to focus clearly on close objects. This loss of accommodation affects near-vision tasks and if untreated can impact quality life. Presbyopia can easily be treated with glasses and contact lenses, but developments in presbyopiacorrecting intraocular lenses for implantation during refractive lens exchange or cataract
