    Cataract Spotlight/AAO 2023
    Cataract/Anterior Segment, Complications, IOLs and Implantation

    In this presentation, Dr. Jay Pepose reviews pseudophakic glare and halos and provides 5 pearls for clinical management:

    • Avoid diffractive intraocular lenses (IOLs) in patients with comorbidities.
    • Correct residual ametropia.
    • Evaluate symptom timing and capsule appearance when weighing YAG versus IOL exchange.
    • If IOL exchange is considered, determine the optimal timing and whether a monofocal IOL or distance target is the best option.
    • Consider the off-label use of miotics.
