Abstract

Presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) are becoming more popular among patients undergoing cataract surgery. Performing vitrectomy with these lenses can be challenging. A review of the currently available presbyopia-correcting IOLs is performed. The problems with vitrectomy and presbyopia-correcting IOLs are identified, and suggestions are given on minimizing intraoperative complications. As these lenses gain popularity among patients with cataracts, retinal surgeons need to be aware of the challenges of working through them when performing vitrectomy. However, with careful preoperative evaluation and planning, complications can be avoided.
