Abstract
Progressive addition lenses, a multifocal intraocular lens or an accommodating intraocular lens (IOL) implantation are commonly used for presbyopia correction. The drawbacks of these methods include lower quality of life after wearing glasses and risks of intraocular surgery induced by IOL implantation. Additionally, though laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) has been widely used in refractive correction, the lack of a precise method for presbyopia treatment limits its application. Recently, a corneal inlay (KAMRA) implantation combined with LASIK surgery has been applied to correct presbyopia with the advantages of effectivity, safety, relocatability and reversible implantation. Thus, the clinical efficiency and safety of corneal inlay are reviewed in this paper to offer some insight as well as to help clinicians choose suitable surgeries that may be helpful in improving the safety of surgery and the quality of the patient's life. Key words: Presbyopia; Corneal inlay; Efficacy; Safety; Complications
