Abstract
A survey of the practice styles and preferences of the 1994 members of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery who had a U.S. ZIP code was performed in September 1994. Approximately 32% (1569) of the 4849 questionnaires mailed out were returned by the November cutoff date. Four main profile questions were used to cross-tabulate: age of the ophthalmologist, geographic location, volume of cataract surgery per month, and volume of refractive surgery per month. This report also compared the data with previously published surveys.
