Femtosecond laser for residual refractive error correction after refractive lens exchange with multifocal intraocular lens implantation.
To assess visual and refractive outcomes of femtosecond laser for residual refractive error correction after refractive lens exchange (RLE) with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. ⋯ Femtosecond laser after RLE with multifocal IOL implantation is an effective procedure for correcting residual ametropia and resulted in better distance visual outcomes.
