Multifocal and EDOF IOLs deliver excellent uncorrected vision at a range of distances. However, they come with a trade-off of increased patient-reported symptoms and decreased contrast sensitivity. Preop counseling and patient selection are very important! aaojournal.org/article/S0161…

So glad to see this study by @CDCgov! Anecdotal reports and misinformation have caused a great deal of confusion regarding #COVID19. It is important that we continue to make *evidence-based* recommendations as we do for the other aspects of our medical practices! #MasksSaveLives
