2. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

   The aim of an accurate intraocular lens power calculation is to provide an intraocular lens (IOL) that fits the specific needs and desires of the individual patient. The development of better instrumentation for measuring the eye's axial length (AL) and the use of more precise mathematical formulas to perform the appropriate calculations have significantly improved the accuracy with which the ...

   This procedure usually takes less than 30 minutes in the hands of an experienced ophthalmologist, and the recovery period is about 2–3 weeks. After surgery, patients should avoid strenuous exercise or anything else that significantly increases blood pressure. They should visit their ophthalmologists regularly for 3 weeks to monitor the implants.

4. Phakic intraocular lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phakic_intraocular_lens

   A phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) is an intraocular lens that is implanted surgically into the eye to correct refractive errors without removing the natural lens (also known as "phakos", hence the term). Intraocular lenses that are implanted into eyes after the eye's natural lens has been removed during cataract surgery are known as pseudophakic.

   After all, LASIK is a completely elective procedure where we are operating on normal, healthy eyes that simply need either glasses or contact lenses to have the best vision, says Dr. Bert.

6. Alpins method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpins_method

   The Alpins Method is a system to plan and analyze the results of refractive surgical procedures, such as laser in-situ keratomileus (LASIK). [1] [2] [3] The Alpins Method is also used to plan cataract/toric intraocular lens (IOL) surgical procedures.

7. Refractive surgery - Wikipedia

   Recovery time is longer with PRK than with LASIK, though the outcome (after 3 months) is about the same (very good). More recently, customized ablation has been performed with LASIK, LASEK, and PRK. Transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) is a laser-assisted eye surgery to correct refraction errors of human eye corneas.
