Light adjustable lens implantation with cataract surgery in eyes with macular pathology

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to assess the visual, refractive, and safety outcomes of light adjustable lens (LAL) implantation in patients with pre-existing macular pathology undergoing cataract surgery. The study found that the LAL significantly improved uncorrected distance visual acuity and refractive accuracy, with a favorable safety profile, suggesting it is a viable option for patients with macular diseases traditionally deemed unsuitable for cataract surgery.
