Purpose To compare monocular and binocular mesopic contrast sensitivity and through focus following monocular implantation with KAMRA small-aperture inlay (AcuFocus, Irvine, California, USA) vs binocular implantation with an accommodating or…
Purpose To examine whether long-term corneal astigmatic change with age after cataract surgery depends on patient age at the time of surgery, and to evaluate whether this change is different…
Purpose To assess the efficacy of corneal cross-linking (CXL) as an adjuvant to appropriate antifungal therapy in nonresolving deep stromal fungal keratitis. Design Randomized clinical trial. Methods Eyes with culture-positive…
Purpose To determine the effects of keratocyte loss on optical properties and vision after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with the flap created with a femtosecond laser or a mechanical microkeratome….
