Ocular Surgery News repeated an earlier article highlighting this research.

Ocular Surgery News, March 2004
Following the Free Paper I delivered at the AAO Annual Meeting in 2003, Ocular Surgery News wrote an article highlighting this research.

Cataract and Refractive Surgery Today, January 2004 
Following the Free Paper, I delivered at the AAO Annual Meeting in 2003, I was invited to write an article for Cataract and Refractive Surgery Today by its Editor – see below:

EyeNet Magazine, September 2003
This publication of the AAO included research that I presented as a Free Paper at the AAO Annual Meeting in 2003 in an article of highlights from the Annual Meeting.

EuroTimes, April 2003.  
The research presented at the ESCRS in Rome, February 2003 was chosen by the Editor to have an article highlighting it published in EuroTimes, April 2003.

•    Micro-incision cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange,
•    Multifocal lens implants,
•    Toric lens implants,
•    Piggyback lens implants,
•    Keratoconus management including Corneal Collagen Crosslinking,
•    Corneal transplant surgery.

What is astigmatism, and how does it affect vision?

Astigmatism is an asymmetry in the curve of the cornea, at the front of the eye. It makes the vision blurred, or “fuzzy” but can be corrected at the time of cataract surgery by using a premium TORIC lens implant.

These pictures illustrate the effect of astigmatism on the vision and how a toric lens could help maximise the result of cataract surgery.

Piggyback lens implants

If you have already had cataract surgery and still need glasses to see clearly in the distance or for reading, or both, a Piggyback lens implant can provide distance and reading vision without the need for glasses.

•    Monofocal Piggyback Lens – corrects your distance spectacle prescription
•    Multifocal Piggyback Lens – gives better reading vision without needing glasses and can correct a distance spectacle prescription at the same time, if needed
•    Toric Piggyback Lens – corrects astigmatism as well as distance and near vision, as needed

Macular Degeneration

Central vision is cloudy with dark patches, reading is difficult, and you may be using magnifiers or other low vision aids to assist with reading.
After any cataract has been removed, persistent difficulty with reading may be improved with the SML implanted lens.

The Scharioth Macular Lens (SML) is a piggyback lens that can improve reading vision and reduce the need to use magnifiers and other low vision aid devices.  The SML may benefit patients suffering from macular disorders such as age-related macular degeneration and others. It is sometimes known as the magnifying lens in the eye.

•    Cataract risk stratification, risk mitigation, and risk management,
•    Outcomes of multifocal lens implants in eyes previously treated by Lasik,
•    Performance of new multifocal lens implants,
•    Patient-reported outcomes measures in cataract surgery,
•    Results of piggyback lens implants.
