Blue light-filtering intraocular lenses: Review of potential benefits and side effects
Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery, 06/29/09
Cuthbertson FM et al. - The authors consider the background to the development of these IOLs, the evidence for a reduction in short-wavelength light exposure protecting retinal cells and function, and the possible disadvantages of IOLs resulting from their reduced light transmission. The authors place this information in context with regard to patients having cataract surgery and the day-to-day conditions in which they live.
