Visual impairment and blindness are global health issues and numerous global, national, and local organizations are actively promoting eye health awareness, and improving healthcare accessibility. We wanted to focus on some of the most common causes of visual impairment and blindness?glaucoma and cataract. This book presents available options for complex cases like cataracts in mycrophthalmic eyes, residual refractive errors after multifocal IOLs, providing good surgical results in glaucoma patients, and a new approach to evaluating the progression of glaucomatous damage. This book should be attentive to ophthalmology specialists and trainees interested and focused on glaucoma, cataract, and refractive surgery.
