Summary

Phakic intraocular lenses are innovative devices that provide the ability to correct extreme levels of myopia, nearsightedness, and astigmatism that other modalities have been unsuccessful correcting.As these devices are increasingly gaining popularity internationally, it has become equally important for a reference to come forward that explains their capabilities.Drs. David R. Hardten, Richard L. Lindstrom, and Elizabeth A. Davis have collaborated with an array of experts to producePhakic Intraocular Lenses: Principles and Practice, a dynamic text concerning one of the newest frontiers in refractive surgery. This well-referenced text includes multiple styles of intraocular lenses and locations of implantation, as well as results, complications, and optics.The authors utilize a comprehensive, user-friendly format coupled with excellent illustrations to thoroughly explain this emerging topic. An impressive list of contributors provides professional insight into everything there is to know about phakic intraocular lenses.Contributors: C. Joseph Anderson, MD; Nicole J.

Author Biography

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.
