Abstract: Age-related refractive abnormalities include cataract and presbyopia,  which can be managed by cataract surgery and presbyopia-correcting intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. According to different functions,  presbyopia-correcting IOL can be classified as monofocal enhanced IOL,  multifocal IOL,  extended depth of focus IOL,  and accommodative IOL. There are three methods of combination of binocular IOL implantation for presbyopia correction:  implanting the same IOLs in both eyes aiming at emmetropia,  micro-monovision,  and mix-and-match.
