 In the second installment of its “Doctor-driven dispensing” series, the Practice Strategies section of Optometry: Journal of the American Optometric Association this month examines how optometrists can counsel patients on premium intraocular lenses (IOLs) and corneal reshaping. Articles on spectacles and contact lenses were included in the August Practice Strategies section. Laser refractive correction will be addressed in a future issue.
