This document summarizes an expert lecture on updates in intraocular lenses (IOLs). It discusses the historical evolution of IOLs from 1949 to present day, with over 298 available IOL options now catalogued online. The main characteristics of IOLs that determine their optical features are reviewed, including refractive power, asphericity, toricity and multifocality. Platform designs and their impact on biocompatibility and postoperative outcomes are also evaluated. Specific IOL types like toric, refractive multifocal, and diffractive bifocal and trifocal lenses are then analyzed in depth for their designs and performance characteristics. Head-to-head comparisons of popular trifocal IOL models are made based on visual ac

28. Conclusions
1. Wide portfolio of IOLs; shared constants (ULIB)
2. Toric IOL show great rotational stability despite of chosen platform
3. Multifocal IOL
◦ Refractive depend on pupil size and centration
◦ Difractive designs
◦ Bifocal – VARIABLE NEAR ADITION
◦ Trifocal – VARIABLE DESIGN AND PLATFORM
