Abstract Introduction: A cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eye leading to a decrease in vision. Cataracts are the cause of half of blindness and 33% of visual impairment worldwide. Surgery with phacoemulsification followed by implantation of intraocular lens (IOL) is gold standard treatment for cataract. In some cases multifocal IOLs are used. This is the first published use of rotational asymmetric multifocal IOL in cataract surgery in Slovakia. Method: In the study 78 eyes of 58 patients (mean age 62.3 years) were implanted for a cataract with the rotational asymmetric multifocal IOL. Corrected and uncorrected distance and near visual acuities were analysed preoperatively, 1 month and 6 months postoperatively. Contrast sensitivity was tested at 6 months postoperatively. The Friedman Two -Way Analysis of Variance and Multiple Comparison Test were used for all parameter comparisons, in all cases, the same level of statistical significance (p < 0.05) was considered significant. Results: Average preoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity has increased from 0.32 to 0.87 and 0.93 respectively in 1 month and 6 months after surgery (p < 0.05, n = 78). Average preoperative uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA) has increased from 0.2 to 0.77 and 0.79 respectively in 1 month and 6 months after surgery (p < 0.05). Average preoperative best corrected distance visual acuity has increased from 0.65 to 0.95 and 1.03 respectively in 1 month and 6 months after surgery (p < 0.05). Significant improvement was found also between preoperative best corrected near visual acuity and UCNVA 1 and 6 month after surgery (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the rotational asymmetric multifocal IOL LS-313 MF 30 provides good visual rehabilitation for near and distance vision after cataract surgery. Contrast sensitivity outcomes account for the patient satisfaction with this innovative IOL technology.

Purpose: To evaluate and compare the visual outcomes and ocular optical performance of the PanOptix trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) and Symfony extended range of vision IOL. Methods: Sixty-eight eyes of 34 patients were divided into 2 groups: 20 patients with the PanOptix IOL and 14 patients with the Symfony IOL. Binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity, best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) at 80 and 60 cm, and distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) at 40 cm were evaluated. Additionally, preferred reading distance with best-corrected distance and visual acuity at that distance, binocular defocus curves, mesopic and photopic contrast sensitivity, photic phenomena, and monocular total higher order aberrations (HOAs) were also measured. Results: The visual outcomes for PanOptix and Symfony IOL groups, respectively, were as follows: BCDVA: -0.03 ± 0.03 and -0.02 ± 0.03 logMAR; DCIVA at 80 cm: 0.06 ± 0.06 and 0.06 ± 0.04 logMAR; DCIVA at 60 cm: 0.06 ± 0.10 and 0.05 ± 0.04 logMAR; DCNVA: 0.04 ± 0.06 and 0.20 ± 0.07 logMAR (p<0.001). Similar preferred reading distances were found for both groups (37.0 ± 4.6 and 38.9 ± 5.7 cm, respectively). The visual acuities at those distances were 0.09 ± 0.08 and 0.19 ± 0.08 logMAR (p<0.001), respectively. The defocus curves showed significantly better outcomes for the PanOptix IOL from -2.0 to -4.0 D (p<0.001). No significant differences were found for contrast sensitivity, halometry, or HOAs between the groups. Conclusions: The PanOptix and Symfony IOLs showed comparable visual performance at distance and intermediate. However, the PanOptix IOL provided better near and preferred reading distance VAs and showed a more continuous range of vision than the Symfony IOL.

Purpose: To evaluate clinical and visual outcomes, quality of near vision, and intraocular optical quality of patients bilaterally implanted with a trifocal PanOptix intraocular lens. Methods: In this prospective consecutive case-series study, 52 eyes of 26 bilateral patients (mean age, 60.2 ± 7.4 years) were implanted with the AcrySof IQ Panoptix intraocular lens. Visual acuity, defocus curve, contrast sensitivity (Pelli-Robson test), near activity visual questionnaire, and internal aberrations with Osiris were evaluated. A prototype light-distortion analyzer was used to quantify the postoperative light-distortion indices. The follow-up was 6 months after surgery. Results: Uncorrected, corrected distance, and uncorrected near visual acuities improved with the surgery (p ≤ 0.02). Distance corrected near visual acuity was 0.13 ± 0.10, 0.13 ± 0.13, and 0.13 ± 0.08 at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery, respectively (p = 0.82). Distance corrected intermediate visual acuities were 0.09 ± 0.13, 0.13 ± 0.15, and 0.12 ± 0.12 at 1, 3, and 6 months, postoperatively. Binocular contrast sensitivity was 1.86 ± 0.15 Log Units. Defocus curve provided a visual acuity equal or better to 0.30 LogMAR between defocus levels of +0.50 to −3.00 D. The near activity visual questionnaire scores improved significantly with the surgery (p < 0.01). Conclusion: The AcrySof IQ Panoptix intraocular lens is able to restore visual function with an acceptable intermediate and near vision after cataract surgery with good contrast sensitivity and an improvement in the near activity visual questionnaire.

Purpose:To analyze the visual and refractive outcome of the bioptics procedure combining multifocal intraocular lens implantation and excimer laser surgery in young patients with high hyperopic eyes not suitable for a single surgical procedure.Methods:This retrospective case series included 10 eyes of five patients (age range 18–30 years) with high hyperopia (spherical equivalent +8.51 ± 0.85 diopters (D)). They had been treated with serial multifocal intraocular lens implantation followed 6 weeks later by laser in situ keratomileusis for residual hyperopia. Uncorrected distance visual acuity, uncorrected near visual acuity, corrected distance visual acuity, corrected near visual acuity, and manifest refraction were evaluated before surgeries, after multifocal intraocular lens implantation, and 3 months post laser in situ keratomileusis.Results:No patients were lost to follow-up (6 months). The mean spherical equivalent decreased to +2.05 ± 1.33 D after multifocal intraocular lens implantation and to −0.10 ± 0.58 D after the laser in situ keratomileusis procedure. Success of the procedures was determined by uncorrected visual acuity. LogMAR uncorrected distance visual acuity improved by a total of more than six lines from 1.05 ± 0.18 LogMAR to 0.46 ± 0.12 LogMAR post multifocal intraocular lens implantation and to 0.15 ± 0.06 LogMAR after both surgeries. The LogMAR uncorrected near visual acuity increased by 0.81 ± 0.82 LogMAR after lens implantation due to loss of accommodation, and all eyes reached a LogMAR of 0 at 1 month postoperatively following laser in situ keratomileusis.Conclusions:A bioptics approach involving multifocal intraocular lens followed 6 weeks later by a laser in situ keratomileusis procedure for the correction of very high hyperopia enabled the resolution of the residual refractive error in young very high hyperopic patients.

Purpose. To evaluate the outcomes following bilateral ERV intraocular lens implantation with micromonovision.Methods. 25 subjects underwent bilateral Tecnis Symfony IOL implantation with micromonovision. The dominant eye was targeted for emmetropia and the nondominant eye for myopia of −0.75 D. Uncorrected and corrected distance (UDVA, CDVA), intermediate (UIVA, CIVA), and near visual acuity (UNVA, DCNVA); reading performance; defocus curve; and contrast sensitivity were studied. Follow-ups were conducted at 1 week and 1 and 6 months postoperatively.Results. At 6 months postoperatively, the mean binocular UDVA, CDVA, UNVA, and DCNVA were −0.036 ± 0.09, −0.108 ± 0.07, 0.152 ± 0.11, and 0.216 ± 0.10 logMAR, respectively. Binocular UIVA and DCIVA were 0.048 ± 0.09 and 0.104 ± 0.08 logMAR, respectively, at 60 cm and −0.044 ± 0.09 and 0.012 ± 0.09 logMAR, respectively, at 80 cm. All patients had ≥0.2 logMAR UDVA and UNVA. Reading acuity and reading speeds showed improvement over time. Between defocus range of −2.50 and +1.00 D, the visual acuity remained ≥0.2 logMAR. Contrast sensitivity scores were within the normal range. 4 patients used reading glasses for very fine print.Conclusion. Bilateral ERV IOL implantation leads to excellent outcomes for far and intermediate vision, satisfactory outcomes for near vision, and good tolerance to micromonovision at the end of the 6 months. This trial is registered withCTRI/2015/10/006246.

Abstract To compare the visual performance of a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) (ZCB00) and a multifocal IOL (ZMB00) of the same material and basic design, we evaluated postoperative parameters at 10 weeks after the last surgery in cataract patients who underwent bilateral ZCB00 or ZMB00 implantation from December 13, 2010, to July 29, 2019, with the right and left lenses implanted within 3 months of each other. The study enrolled 2,230 eyes of 1,115 patients. The monofocal group comprised 904 eyes of 452 patients (72.3 ± 6.8 years; females/males, 268/184), and the multifocal group comprised 1,326 eyes of 663 patients (67.0 ± 7.8 years; females/males, 518/145). Contrast sensitivity (4.0/2.5/1.6/1.0/0.7 degrees), contrast sensitivity with glare (1.6/1.0/0.7 degrees), and the VFQ-25 score for driving at night were significantly better in the monofocal group (p < 0.00068, Wald test). Uncorrected intermediate/near visual acuity and near spectacle independence were significantly better in the multifocal group (p < 0.00068, Wald test). The two IOL groups had different characteristics in terms of contrast sensitivity, night-time driving, uncorrected intermediate/near visual acuity and near spectacle independence.

Abstract Background : This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lenes (IOLs) in cataract surgery. Methods: All comparative clinical trials that involved bilaterally implanting EDOF IOLs in patients with cataract were retrieved from the literature database. We used random effects models to pool weighted mean differences (WMD) and risk ratio (RR) for continuous and dichotomous variables, respectively. Results: Nine studies with a total of 1336 eyes were identified. The subgroup analysis was conducted according to the type of IOLs used in the control group. Compared with monofocal IOLs, EDOF IOLs produced better uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (WMD: -0.17, 95% CI: -0.26 to -0.08, P = 0.0001) and uncorrected near visual acuity (WMD: -0.17, 95% CI: -0.21 to -0.12, P < 0.00001). EDOF IOLs resulted in reduced contrast sensitivity, more frequent halos, however, higher spectacle independence (RR: 2.81, 95% CI: 1.06 to 7.46, P = 0.04) than monofocal IOLs. Compared with trifocal IOLs, EDOF IOLs produced worse near visual acuity (MD: 0.10, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.13, P<0.0001). EDOF IOLs performed better than trifocal IOls in contrast sensitivity, and there were no significant difference in halos and spectacle independence. Serious postoperative complications were rare, with no adverse events were reported in most studies. Conclusions: Increasing the risk of contrast reduction and more frequent halos, EDOF IOLs provided better intermediate and near VAs than monofocal IOLs. At the expense of near vision, patients receiving EDOF IOLs have better contrast sensitivity than those receiving trifocal IOLs. Halo incidence and spectacle independence of EDOF IOLs were similar to those of trifocal IOLs.

Purpose. Few studies have focused on long-term postoperative visual quality. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term visual quality after microincision cataract surgery (MICS). Methods. 96 patients (144 eyes) diagnosed with age-related cataracts were enrolled in this one-year study. The patients underwent MICS and received aspheric monofocal intraocular lens implants. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was evaluated together with best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), best-corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA), contrast sensitivity, and surgically induced astigmatism (SIA). Results. Compared to preoperative measurements, UDVA, BCDVA, and BCNVA were significantly better after surgery (P<0.001), and they remained stable throughout follow-up. Contrast sensitivity was also significantly better after surgery (P<0.001). Mean SIA during follow-up was 0.57 ± 0.33 D at 1 week, 0.36 ± 0.25 D at 3 months, and 0.18 ± 0.16 D at 1 year. SIA decreased significantly during the postoperative period (P<0.001). The 1-year postoperative absolute residual diopter value was 0.32 ± 0.28 D. Conclusion. MICS can provide excellent visual quality as soon as on postoperative day 1, which persists during the follow-up period of 1 year. In contrast to previous studies, SIA decreases over time and may not completely stabilize for as long as 1 year postoperatively.

Purpose. To compare the short-term visual outcomes and intraocular optical performance of a rotationally asymmetric multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) (SBL-3, Lenstec, Inc., Christ Church, Barbados) and an apodized diffractive MIOL (the Acrysof IQ ResTOR SN6AD1, Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, Texas, United States). Methods. A prospective, comparative, nonrandomized, and single-center study. Sixty-eight age-related cataract patients (81 eyes) after phacoemulsification cataract surgery and in-the-bag MIOL implantation were enrolled. Thirty-eight eyes received SBL-3, and 43 eyes received SN6AD1. Ophthalmological evaluation included uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), modulation transfer function (MTF), Strehl ratio (SR), intraocular aberrations (4 mm optical zone), and defocus curve at 3 months postoperatively. The Chinese version of the visual function index-14 (VF-12-CN) and spectacle independence were assessed in all patients. Results. There was no statistically significant difference between groups in postoperative UDVA (p=0.186). Postoperative UIVA and UNVA were significantly better for the SBL-3 group than for the SN6AD1 group (p<0.01). Statistically significant differences were revealed in defocus levels from –3.50 D to −4.00 D with better visual acuities for the SBL-3 group (p<0.01). For intraocular optical quality outcomes, statistically significant differences between groups were observed in RMS of intraocular total aberrations, coma, and trefoil high-order aberrations, presenting significantly higher values of these parameters in the eyes of the SBL-3 group (p < 0.01). Statistically significant differences were revealed in the MTF values at spatial frequencies of 5 and 10 cycles/degree between groups. There were no significant differences in scores of VF-12-CN, and spectacle independence between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusions. Both MIOLs were able to successfully restore visual function after cataract surgery. SBL-3 provided better UIVA and UNVA with a wider range of intermediate vision.

Introduction This study aims to measure the visual acuity of practising dentists and to establish the average time elapsed since their last routine eye examination. Materials and methods Distance visual acuity, near visual acuity, convergence, accommodation, contrast sensitivity, heterophorias and stereoscopic vision were measured in a diverse group of 46 dentists practising in Scotland. Results The results indicated that distance visual acuity was at least 6/6 for all but one of the subjects. All had acceptable near visual acuity. Accommodation followed the expected age-related trend of decreasing with age. No subjects had a definitely abnormal contrast sensitivity score although four were in the borderline zone. No subjects had a horizontal squint but two had a significant vertical phoria. Three subjects had no stereoscopic vision and one subject had a very high threshold level. All other subjects were able to see stereoscopically. Of the subjects 57% had been for an eye examination within the previous two years, with the range being from less than one month to 17 years. Conclusion The eyesight of this group of clinicians exceeds generally accepted normal population values. Although the majority of the clinicians had attended for an eye examination within two years, the large range of time since last attendance is of concern and regular eye examinations are to be encouraged.

Purpose.To evaluate visual, refractive, and contrast sensitivity outcomes, as well as the incidence of pseudophakic photic phenomena and patient satisfaction after bilateral diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.Methods. This prospective nonrandomized study included consecutive patients undergoing cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of a diffractive trifocal IOL (AT LISA tri 839MP, Carl Zeiss Meditec). Distance, intermediate, and near visual outcomes were evaluated as well as the defocus curve and the refractive outcomes 3 months after surgery. Photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity, patient satisfaction, and halo perception were also evaluated.Results.Seventy-six eyes of 38 patients were included; 90% of eyes showed a spherical equivalent within ±0.50 diopters 3 months after surgery. All patients had a binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity of 0.00 LogMAR or better and a binocular uncorrected intermediate visual acuity of 0.10 LogMAR or better, 3 months after surgery. Furthermore, 85% of patients achieved a binocular uncorrected near visual acuity of 0.10 LogMAR or better.Conclusions.Trifocal diffractive IOL implantation seems to provide an effective restoration of visual function for far, intermediate, and near distances, providing high levels of visual quality and patient satisfaction.
