Simultaneous pterygium and cataract removal with light adjustable lens implantation
Simultaneous pterygium and cataract surgery with LAL implantation offers a viable alternative for patients who face logistical challenges with the traditional 2-stage approach. The adjustability of the LAL mitigates refractive unpredictability caused by corneal irregularities. Further studies with larger sample size and longer follow-up are required to support these findings.
