Overview
The course is intended to educate the comprehensive
ophthalmologist on new phakic IOL technology that will correct refractive
errors in most patients and offer an alternative to corneal refractive surgery.
Attendees will have the opportunity to see this new technology during lectures
and live surgery performed during the meeting. Leading experts will discuss
surgical technique, recent FDA findings, their clinical experience and
advantages and disadvantages of this technology.

able to:
- Explain how phakic IOLs are used as an alternative for
their patients
- Recognize how astigmatism can be managed with phakic
IOLs
- Discuss the appropriate role of this procedure in their
