Abstract

Cataract surgery continues to evolve in several technological aspects. Optical coherence tomography has improved both preoperative biometry and diagnosis. It has been used intra-operatively for particular purposes, and is useful in many postoperative conditions. Automation has entered cataract surgery both through the femtosecond laser and through other mechanized methods of achieving a perfect capsulotomy, with robotic surgery in the pipeline. Feed-back irrigation control during phacoemulsification has been proven effective in stabilizing the anterior chamber and is a leap forward in improving the safety of the surgical procedure. Image-guided toric IOL implantation and refraction-guided power selection are further technical steps in the way to precision. New IOLs have been developed: trifocal IOLs are now the standard of care for multifocality; extended-depth-of-focus IOLs are gaining acceptance and clinical use; pinhole IOLs are also available to improve pseudoaccommodation and to help patients with irregular corneas; supplementary IOLs are challenging the very concept of IOL selection and will be more and more accepted in the near future.
