In this episode, Tanner Ferguson, MD; Nancy Draskovic, OD; and Jessica Hults, OD each take us through an interesting Light Adjustable Lens™ (LAL®) case they’ve experienced and their strategies for managing complex patients. We explored the advantages of LAL over traditional lenses, particularly for patients with astigmatism, previous refractive surgery, or those interested in monovision. They discussed the importance of patient education, managing expectations, and addressing ocular surface issues throughout the treatment process, while also highlighting post-operative care and follow-up protocols.
