[Selection of intraocular lenses in patients with cataract and high myopia]

Cataracts often develop early and rapidly in patients with high myopia, which is one of the common causes of vision loss in these patients. Cataract surgery is usually required to treat this condition. However, patients with high myopia have specific anatomies and pathological changes, and eye balance needs to be considered. Based on the domestic and international research literature, this article discusses related hot issues, including the use of a monofocal or multifocal intraocular lens, the design of the postoperative refractive state for both eyes, and the lens size and material selection.
