Editor's comment

Conventional wisdom dictates that presbyopic IOLs, diffractive in particular, should not be considered for patients with corneal or macular pathology because those conditions are likely to be associated with image quality degradation and poor subjective vision performance. Moreover, toric IOLs are best avoided when astigmatism measurements are inconsistent in magnitude and axis across several technologies. Those caveats are applicable to the case at hand, and the respondents were careful to point out those facts in considering the best IOL option(s).
