Abstract   Community  primary  eye  care  providers  (PECP)  are  the  main  providers  of  visual  rehabilitation  and   improvement  to  patients.  Patients expectations  following  cataract  surgery  as  well  as  visual   improvement  are  usually  ingrained  during  their  visit  with  their  PECP.  It  is  important that  as  PECP,   we  have  an  understanding  of  limitations  of  modern  lens  technology  to  provide  a  positive  and   balanced  expectation  of  surgical outcomes.    

Objectives:
To  provide  an  update  on  lens  technology  and  potential  refractive  outcome  options  to  PECP, to  promote  understanding  of  modern  lens  technology  benefits  and  limitations, to  promote  a  synergistic  approach  to  optimise  patient  outcome,  expectation  and  satisfaction.
