Current Concepts in Ophthalmology

Abstract

Cataract surgery is the most common surgical procedure performed in medicine. In the 2015 over 20 million surgeries were carried out worldwide, of which 3.6 million in the United States of America and 4.2 million in the European Union. The progress in technology enabled cataract surgery to be the safest and most predictable eye surgery. On the other hand, the increase in life expectancy and quality of life result in higher surmises regarding the outcomes. Currently, individuals over 70 years of age might be declared inactive or retired, however, still wish to maintain an active lifestyle, including driving a car and performing sports. Subsequently, there is a demand for techniques that are even more perfect. New encounters include surgeries performed on patients with dementia and other comorbidities related with ageing. The anticipated duration of intraocular lens in the eye has significantly increased. Thus physico-chemical characteristics and endurance should allow the lens to keep its’ optical properties for up to three decades. The most significant advances in cataract surgery will be briefly discussed within this chapter.
