Abstract:Glaucoma and cataract are leading causes of blindness globally and frequently coexist in the elderly population, presenting unique challenges for clinical management. With continuous advancements in cataract surgery and the increasing diversity of intraocular lens(IOL)designs, optimizing IOL selection for patients with both glaucoma and cataract has emerged as a critical area of research. The goal is to achieve the best possible visual quality while maximizing the preservation of visual function, controlling intraocular pressure, and minimizing postoperative complications. This review systematically summarizes current research progress regarding IOL selection for patients with glaucoma and cataract.
