Title

From paediatrics to reversible presbyopia surgery to silicone oiled eyes: the wonderful world of supplemental IOL use

Purpose	To educate the audience about the scope of supplemental IOL use.
Methods	Classification os surgery into primary vs. secondary, permanent vs. temporary allows the practitioner to understand the situations where supplemental IOLs can be used to help patients.
Results	Modern supplemental IOLs are not just "piggy back IOLs" but a radical new platform. This safer technology opens a variety of uses that have not previously been recognised.
Conclusion	An understanding of the IOL platform of modern supplemental IOLs together with a conceptual classification of surgery allows ophthalmologists to appreciate the wide range of situations where supplemental IOLs may help patients.
