Cataract Senile
Conditions
Brief summary
Direct comparison study between previous LASIK or non-LASIK cataract eyes, the performance between non-LASIK and LASIK patients were (i) Ophthalmic examinations: UDVA, CDVA and uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) (40cm) and (ii) Refractive prediction error: defined as difference between postoperative sphere and target refraction.
Interventions
routine cataract surgery and intraocular lens implantation
