More About This Book

Overview

Drs. David R. Hardten, Richard L. Lindstrom, and Elizabeth A. Davis have collaborated to produce Phakic Intraocular Lenses, a dynamic text concerning one of the newest frontiers in refractive surgery. The authors utilize a comprehensive, user-friendly format coupled with excellent illustrations to thoroughly explain this emerging topic. These innovative devices provide the ability to correct extreme levels of myopia, nearsightedness, and astigmatism that other modalities have not done a good job of correcting. This well-referenced text includes multiple styles of intraocular lenses and locations of implantation as well as results, complications, and optics. As opposed to cataract surgery or other types of refractive surgery, phakic intraocular lenses offer surgeons new possibilities for improving their patients' vision. As these devices are increasingly gaining popularity internationally, it has become equally important for a reference to emerge that explains their capabilities. Ophthalmologists, optometrists, and other eye care professionals dealing with implants will benefit greatly from this authoritative resource on phakic intraocular lenses.

Meet the Author

Drs. Hardten, Lindstrom, and Davis have over 5 years of experience with phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) in their practice at Minnesota Eye Consultants in Minneapolis as part of the clinical trials for phakic IOLs in the United States. All of the authors also have extensive experience in other forms of refractive surgery, including radial keratotomy, laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK), photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK), Intacs, refractive lens exchange, and conductive keratoplasty to put the phakic IOL experience in perspective. They have also all held leadership positions in organizations that have shaped refractive surgery, including the International Society of Refractive Surgery, Refractive Surgery Interest Group, International Intraocular Implant Club, American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, and the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
