Abstract
With recent advancements in refractive surgery, we can achieve sufficient results in the
treatment of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. Patients are able to appreciate good
uncorrected visual acuity (VA), and their quality of life can also be improved. The next
interest goes to how we can treat presbyopia. Several methods have been introduced.
Implantation of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) instead of original crystalline lenses
is familiar to the ophthalmic surgeon, since we are performing this technique for cataract
patients for many years. We could learn most results of multifocal IOLs from our cataract
patients.
