Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
In this chapter we will describe the rational for supplementary IOL that were developed mainly for the correction of post-surgery refractive error. We will describe the alternative and the advantages of the supplementary IOLs. Supplementary IOLs are also available for astigmatism correction and as a multifocal version with or without a blue light protection. We will describe and discusses the clinical results of the available IOL.
