FS, Toric and PresbyIOL are not high volume refractive surgeries yet like LASIK in its heyday, but moving forward. Multifocals trump Accommodative IOLs, but neither high penetration. More astigmatism management (even low) in cataract surgery. Healthy LVC and Premium IOL Family Indices amongst refractive surgeons themselves. Post-LVC ectasia on the decline. DUFFEY/LEAMING 215

29 Additional Data at Types and volumes of refractive surgeries currently being performed. Post-operative use of antibiotics, steroids, and NSAIDs. Surgical venues for various procedures and more. DUFFEY/LEAMING 215
