The importance of the cornea to the ocular structure and visual system is often overlooked
because of the cornea's unassuming transparent nature. The cornea lacks the …

Corneal transplantation is the most successful solid organ transplantation performed in
humans. The extraordinary success of orthotopic corneal allografts, in both humans and …

Purpose To quantify changes in endothelial cell counts and corneal thickness
measurements in patients having standard phacoemulsification compared with femtosecond …

PURPOSE: To investigate whether modern phacoemulsification surgery results in more
damage to the corneal endothelium than extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE), and to …

Modern cataract surgery is safe in more than 95 per cent of patients. In the small number of
cases where a serious complication occurs, the most common is an intra‐operative posterior …

purpose. To evaluate a biexponential decay model for describing the loss of corneal
endothelial cells with age as well as the increased loss of cells after cataract surgery and …

Femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) putatively offers several advantages
over conventional phacoemulsification. We review the current status of FLACS and discuss …
