Abstract
For the average surgeon, the use of a standard power lens implant, with shifts in power according to the patient's basic refraction - and with consideration for the fellow eye and the effect of too much anisometropia - and with use of ultrasound in cases of ignorance or suspicion - can result in making the vast majority of his patients very happy with their pseudophakic vision.
If better methods are available, they certainly should be used.
