Intraocular lens insertion speed and structural changes in lens and cartridge system

摘要

In the article by Ouchi about insertion speed and clear corneal wound structure, the results show statistically significant increases in wound size, number of wounds requiring hydration, and change in wound structure on ocular coherence tomography following slow intraocular lens (IOL) insertion. In laboratory examination, Ouchi also found an increase in the cartridge's vertical diameter when the IOL was loaded and vertical enlargement after delivery. Thus, his findings suggest that faster IOL insertion may lessen damage to the surgical wound. While faster IOL insertion can certainly promote enhanced wound safety, this technique is not necessarily without consequence.
