Cataract surgery, a transformative procedure to restore vision, has seen remarkable advancements in intraocular lens (IOL) technologies. This special issue presents a collection of research that explores the performance, design, and evaluation of IOLs. From established designs and the impact of key optical parameters to innovative approaches and preoperative simulations, these contributions offer a comprehensive view of current trends and future directions in IOL development. The special issue also honors the legacy of Prof. Jim Schwiegerling whose contributions to visual optics in general, and IOLs in particular, have had a tremendous impact in the field, both in the academic, clinical and industrial communities.
白内障手术是一种恢复视力的变革性手术，眼内晶状体（IOL）技术取得了显著进展。本期特刊呈现了一系列探讨人工晶状体性能、设计和评估的研究。从既定设计、关键光学参数的影响到创新方法和术前模拟，这些论文全面展示了人工晶状体发展的当前趋势和未来方向。本期特刊还纪念了吉姆·施维格林教授的贡献，他对视觉光学，尤其是人工晶状体的贡献，在学术、临床和工业界都对该领域产生了巨大影响。
