Show Description +

Surgeons often avoid using toric IOLs in patients with glaucoma for a variety of reasons, including uncertainty of the visual benefit because of the patient's reduced visual field. Beverly Busse, BS, highlights a study she coauthored with Brian A. Francis, MD, MS, that showed positive outcomes when toric IOLs were implanted in glaucoma patients with advanced visual field loss.
