Redefining Astigmatism: New Standards in Surgical Reporting and Analysis
The June issue of the Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery (JCRS) marks a significant milestone in ophthalmology with two pivotal articles that redefine how astigmatism - particularly surgically induced astigmatism - is measured and reported.
In the accompanying video, Prof. Douglas Koch and Prof. Dr. Thomas Kohnen share the journey behind this initiative, highlighting the importance of refining astigmatism analysis to improve clinical outcomes. Their insights underscore the need for consistent standards that can guide surgeons and researchers alike.
These articles offer a deep dive into methodologies that could reshape current practices and enhance precision in refractive surgery. Whether you're a clinician, researcher, or simply curious about the future of eye care, this research is a must-read.
