Sommario/riassunto

"Permanent surgical treatment for presbyopia remains the hereto unconquered "last frontier" in anterior segment surgery. Over the years, continuing innovations like Phaco, Radial Keratotomy, LASIK, and premium intraocular lenses have pushed toward this ultimate goal, but now anterior segment surgery is closer than ever with the advent of modern laser-assisted presbyopic lens implantation. Let Refractive Lens Exchange: A Surgical Treatment for Presbyopia, the first book of its kind, be your guide to this fifth wave of innovation in the surgical treatment of presbyopia. Dr. Ming X. Wang, MD, PhD, joined by Associate Editor Dr. Tracy Schroeder Swartz, OD, MS, FAAO and more than 30 expert contributors, compiled this remarkable book. Never before has there been a book dedicated to all aspects of refractive lens exchange as a permanent treatment for presbyopia, both medically and surgically. " --
