Abstract
A common non-spectacle strategy to correct presbyopia is to provide simultaneous images with multifocal optical designs. Understanding the neuroadaptation mechanisms behind multifocal devices usage would have important clinical implications, such as predicting whether patients will be able to tolerate multifocal optics. The aim of this study was to evaluate the brain correlates during the initial wear of multifocal contact lenses (CLs) using high-density visual evoked potential (VEP) measures. Fifteen presbyopes (mean age 51.8 ± 2.6 years) who had previously not used multifocal CLs were enrolled. VEP measures were achieved while participants looked at arrays of 0.5 logMAR Sloan letters in three different optical conditions arranged with CLs: monofocal condition with the optical power appropriate for the distance viewing; multifocal correction with medium addition; and multifocal correction with low addition. An ANOVA for repeated measures showed that the amplitude of the C1 and N1 components significantly dropped with both multifocal low and medium addition CL conditions compared to monofocal CLs. The P1 and P2 components showed opposite behavior with an increase in amplitudes for multifocal compared to monofocal conditions. VEP data indicated that multifocal presbyopia corrections produce a loss of feedforward activity in the primary visual cortex that is compensated by extra feedback activity in extrastriate areas only, in both early and late visual processing.

Abstract
PURPOSE To manage patient dissatisfaction following multifocal intraocular lens (MF-IOL) implantation by IOL exchange with either a monofocal or an alternative MF-IOL, and to compare outcomes in these two groups. METHODS MF-IOL exchange was performed in 32 patients (64 eyes) with neuroadaptation failure. The MF-to-MF group involved patients who had a MF-IOL exchanged with another MF-IOL of a different optical profile and the MF-to-MO group involved patients who had a MF-IOL exchanged to a monofocal IOL. Visual outcomes and complications were analysed. The Quality of Vision (QoV) questionnaire, Visual Function Index (VF-14) and its Rasch-revised version (VF-8R) were also used to assess outcomes. RESULTS There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) in the QoV scores between the two groups, both preoperatively and postoperatively. Preoperatively, there were no significant differences in VF-14 scores between both groups (p > 0.05). Postoperatively, there were statistically significant differences in VF-14 (total score, intermediate vision and near vision) in favour of the MF-to-MF group (p < 0.05). The postoperative VF-8R score in the MF-to-MF group was significantly better than the MF-to-MO group (p ≤ 0.001). Uncorrected and corrected near as well as corrected distance visual acuities were significantly better (p < 0.05) in the MF-to-MF group compared to the MF-to-MO group at 3 months. CONCLUSION Patient dissatisfaction and neuroadaptation failure following MF-IOL implantation can be managed by an IOL exchange with an alternative optical design of MF-IOL or a monofocal IOL. Although, in the current study, the MF-to-MF group showed some better postoperative results, both options are feasible solutions.

Abstract
It is important to be able to measure the range of clear focus in clinical practice to advise on presbyopia correction techniques and to optimise the correction power. Both subjective and objective techniques are necessary: subjective techniques (such as patient reported outcome questionnaires and defocus curves) assess the impact of presbyopia on a patient and how the combination of residual objective accommodation and their natural DoF work for them; objective techniques (such as autorefraction, corneal topography and lens imaging) allow the clinician to understand how well a technique is working optically and whether it is the right choice or how adjustments can be made to optimise performance. Techniques to assess visual performance and adverse effects must be carefully conducted to gain a reliable end-point, considering the target size, contrast and illumination. Objective techniques are generally more reliable, can help to explain unexpected subjective results and imaging can be a powerful communication tool with patients. A clear diagnosis, excluding factors such as binocular vision issues or digital eye strain that can also cause similar symptoms, is critical for the patient to understand and adapt to presbyopia. Some corrective options are more permanent, such as implanted inlays / intraocular lenses or laser refractive surgery, so the optics can be trialled with contact lenses in advance (including differences between the eyes) to better communicate with the patient how the optics will work for them so they can make an informed choice.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) on visual acuity (VA) after implantation of a diffractive multifocal intraocular lens (mIOL). SETTING Eye Clinic, Okayama, Japan. DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS This study evaluated 475 eyes of 475 patients who underwent cataract surgery with a TECNIS Multifocal ZLB00 lens implant between November 2017 and October 2019. Patient eyes were classified into the complete PVD group (PVD group) or the control group with no PVD/partial PVD (non-PVD group) and divided into 3 age categories: 65 to 69, 70 to 74, and 75 to 79 years. The postoperative VA of the PVD and non-PVD groups was compared between and within groups by age. RESULTS Distance-corrected near VA (DCNVA) was significantly worse in the PVD group than in the non-PVD group in all age categories ( P ≤ .029). In the PVD group, both corrected distance VA (CDVA) and DCNVA were significantly worse in the 75 to 79 years age group than in the 65 to 69 and 70 to 74 years age groups ( P ≤ .034). CDVA and DCNVA in the non-PVD group did not differ significantly between age categories. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that complete PVD worsens near VA in eyes with a diffractive mIOL. Furthermore, eyes with complete PVD may show an age-related decline in both CDVA and DCNVA. In particular, eyes ≥75 years of age with complete PVD have a poor visual prognosis and should be given careful consideration when deciding whether to implant a diffractive mIOL.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the difference in the initial surgical results between a new monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with enhanced intermediate vision and the standard monofocal IOL in patients with retinal disease. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with retinal disease who underwent cataract surgery due to accompanying cataracts. Types of retinal diseases were investigated and best-corrected distant visual acuity, distant uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), intermediate UCVA, near UCVA, and spherical equivalent were recorded at each visit. The surgical results were investigated at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month after surgery. RESULTS Seventeen eyes treated with a new monofocal IOL enhanced for intermediate vision (ICB00 group) and 18 eyes treated with the standard monofocal IOL (AAB00 group) were included in this study. There were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics, including the type of underlying retinal disease, between the groups. There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of distant, intermediate, or near UCVA at day 1 and week 1 after surgery. However, at 1 month after surgery, the ICB00 group showed a significantly better intermediate vision improvement than the AAB00 group (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Even in patients with cataract accompanied by retinal disease, the use of the ICB00 IOL showed significant improvement in intermediate vision compared to the use of the AAB00 (standard monofocal) IOL. The ICB00 IOL might be a good option for patients with cataract and retinal disease in the era of increased intermediate vision needs in daily life.

Abstract
To demonstrate the results of ray tracing higher- and lower-order aberrations in pseudophakic eyes with rotationally asymmetrical segment multifocal lenses, total high- and low-order aberrations, measured by root mean square value (RMS), refraction, uncorrected distance and uncorrected near visual acuity (UCDVA and UCNVA), and tear break-up time, were measured at scotopic size in 42 eyes of patients implanted with bifocal refractive Mplus15/Mplus30 IOL with +1.5 dpt near addition (42 eyes of patients implanted with Mplus15)/+3.0 dpt near addition (91 eyes of patients implanted with Mplus30), and 107 eyes of control group. No significant differences were noticed between the examined groups concerning UCDVA, UCNVA, and tear break-up time (p < 0.001). Coma and total high-order aberrations were significantly higher for the Mplus30 lens in comparison to the Mplus15 lens and the control group (Coma, Trefoil p < 0.001, Secondary Astigmatism p = 0.002). The spherical aberrations were significantly higher in the lower-addition lens (p = 0.016) in comparison to the control group and to the higher-addition lens group (p < 0.001). Both intraocular lens models were successful at reaching refractive aim, good distance, and near function with the lower higher-order aberrations for the low-addition lens.

Abstract
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the leading indication for EK and may coexist with cataract and presbyopia. Notably, the outcomes of phacoemulsification in FECD patients are not as favorable as those in eyes without this condition. Historically, only monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) were recommended for these patients. However, recent reports have described the implantation of Premium-IOLs (such as Multifocal IOLs, Enhanced Depth of Focus IOLs, and Toric IOLs) in FECD eyes undergoing cataract surgery and Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK). While the results are encouraging, they are not as optimal as those from unoperated eyes, especially when comparing simultaneous procedures to sequential ones. It's advised to perform the DMEK first to improve the accuracy of IOL calculations. Still, even successfully operated eyes may experience secondary graft failure or graft rejection after DMEK. The success rate of a secondary DMEK is typically lower than that of the initial procedure. Furthermore, if the postoperative thickness after DMEK is less than anticipated, laser enhancements might not be an option. There's a pressing need for more controlled and randomized clinical trials to ascertain the safety and effectiveness of Premium-IOLs for FECD eyes. This narrative review aims to collate evidence on the use of Premium IOL technologies in eyes receiving EK and to underscore key points for surgeons performing EK combined with cataract surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE To clinically evaluate a diffractive continuous-range-of-vision intraocular lens (IOL) that combines bifocal and extended depth-of-focus technologies in refractive lens exchange (RLE) patients. SETTING University eye clinic. DESIGN Prospective interventional clinical study. METHODS Bilateral implantation of the TECNIS Synergy IOL was performed during a RLE procedure in 28 patients. At 3 months postoperatively, uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, uncorrected (UIVA) and distance-corrected (DCIVA) intermediate visual acuities at 80 cm, and uncorrected (UNVA) and distance-corrected (DCNVA) near visual acuities at 40 cm were assessed. Defocus curve testing and contrast sensitivity testing were also performed. RESULTS Binocular UDVA and CDVA of 56 eyes (28 patients) were -0.06 ± 0.07 logMAR and -0.13 ± 0.05 logMAR, respectively. UIVA and DCIVA were -0.06 ± 0.05 logMAR and -0.08 ± 0.06 logMAR, and UNVA and DCNVA were -0.01 ± 0.07 logMAR and -0.04 ± 0.07 logMAR. The defocus curve revealed a visual acuity of 0.10 logMAR or better from +0.50 to -3.00 diopters (D). Photopic contrast sensitivity at spatial frequencies 3.0, 6.0, 12.0, and 18.0 was 1.68 ± 0.20, 1.77 ± 0.19, 1.45 ± 0.18, and 1.02 ± 0.19 log units, respectively. Mesopic contrast sensitivity at the same frequencies was 1.56 ± 0.20, 1.44 ± 0.25, 0.92 ± 0.38, and 0.44 ± 0.37, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The Synergy IOL provided very good distance, intermediate, and near visual outcomes. A visual acuity of 0.10 logMAR or better was achieved from +0.50 to -3.0 D. Contrast sensitivity was within the normal range.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the efficacies and safety of enhanced and standard monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) in eyes with early glaucoma. Patients with concurrent cataracts and open-angle glaucoma (OAG) were enrolled. They underwent cataract surgery with IOL implantation. The comprehensive preoperative ophthalmic examination included the manifest refraction; monocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), and uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA); visual field (VF); and contrast sensitivity (CS); defocus curves and questionnaires were assessed three months postoperatively. Totals of 34 and 38 patients had enhanced and standard monofocal IOLs, respectively. The enhanced monofocal IOL provided better UIVA than the standard monofocal IOL (p = 0.003) but similar UDVA, CDVA, and UNVA. The enhanced monofocal IOL had more consistent defocus curves than the standard monofocal IOL, especially at -1 (p = 0.042) and -1.5 (p = 0.026) diopters. The enhanced monofocal IOL provided better satisfaction (p = 0.019) and lower spectacle dependence (p = 0.004) than the standard monofocal IOL for intermediate vision, with similar VF and CS outcomes. In conclusion, enhanced monofocal IOLs are recommended for patients with OAG because they provide better intermediate vision, higher satisfaction, and lower dependence on spectacles than standard monofocal IOLs, without worsening other visual outcomes.

Abstract
Refractive lens exchange (RLE) allows to correct ametropias and presbyopia by replacing the crystalline lens with an extended depth of focus or multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Retinal detachment (RD) is one of the most serious adverse events after RLE. This study aimed to review the evidence related to the risk of RD after RLE and clinical outcomes. A search using PubMed and a snowball search approach was conducted to identify articles and case reports. According to the literature, the risks of RD should be considered in patients <60 years old with axial lengths >23 mm. Only nine articles reported visual acuity (VA) after RD in RLE, and only 25% of eyes had a VA > 20/40. Considering that the decrease in VA might be uniform for all types of IOLs after RD, surgeons should focus on selecting the patient to prevent RD rather than on a particular IOL optical design based on the potential risk of DR.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the visual performance, spectacle independence, and subjective visual quality of 2 enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs): Eyhance ICB00 and ZOE Primus-HD. SETTING Ophthalmology Department, San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy. DESIGN Prospective case series. METHODS Patients without ocular comorbidities and corneal astigmatism <0.75 diopters (D) undergoing cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of enhanced monofocal Eyhance and ZOE were included. 6 months postoperatively, the following parameters were analyzed: subjective and objective refraction; monocular and binocular corrected (4 m) and uncorrected (UDVA) distance visual acuities; corrected distance, intermediate (66 cm), and near (40 cm) visual acuities, as well as uncorrected intermediate (UIVA) and uncorrected near (UNVA) visual acuities; photopic contrast sensitivity; binocular defocus curve; halo and glare perception; and spectacle independence. RESULTS 100 eyes of 50 patients were evaluated (25 patients per IOL group). The 2 IOLs showed superimposable visual performances, without significant differences in terms of refractive and visual outcomes, defocus curves, contrast sensitivity, scores of vision quality, and spectacle independence. Of note, monocular and binocular UDVA was excellent in both groups. The 2 IOL models achieved satisfactory binocular UIVA, with more than 70% of patients reaching a binocular UIVA of ≤0.1 logMAR. Up to 84% of patients eventually declared to feel comfortable frequently while staying at intermediate distance. CONCLUSIONS The general visual outcome of the Eyhance ICB00 and the ZOE Primus-HD enhanced monofocal IOLs is similar, with special reference to the satisfactory spectacle independence for intermediate distance.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the visual performance after unilateral implantation of an extended depth-of-focus intraocular lens (IOL) in patients with unilateral cataracts. METHODS In this prospective study, uneventful phacoemulsification with LuxSmart IOL (Bausch & Lomb) implantation was performed in 25 eyes of 25 patients with unilateral cataracts. At postoperative 1, 4, 12, and 24 weeks, uncorrected and corrected visual acuity at far, intermediate, and near distances and the spherical equivalent in manifest refraction were measured. A Visual Function Index and modified Visual Function Index questionnaire were used to investigate glare, spectacle dependence, and satisfaction at 24 weeks in the eye that had surgery. RESULTS At 6 months postoperatively, uncorrected distance visual acuity was 20/20 (0.0 logMAR) in 96% of cases, distance corrected intermediate visual acuity was 20/32 (0.2 logMAR) in all cases (60 cm), and distance corrected near visual acuity was 20/32 (0.2 logMAR) in 60% of cases (40 cm). The patient satisfaction score was 100% based on the Visual Function Index questionnaire for far and intermediate distance, respectively. No patients complained of the permanent photic phenomenon. No patients reported bilateral imbalance. All of the patients became spectacle independent for most of their intermediate activities at 60 cm. A total of 96% of the patients reported 100% contrast sensitivity in the Pelli-Robson test. CONCLUSIONS The unilateral implantation of this EDOF IOL seems to be tolerated and effective in improving the visual function of patients with unilateral cataract with limited optical side effects such as halos or glare, providing spectacle-independent vision from far to intermediate object distances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this research was to see if a refractive enhanced monofocal IOL (Eyhance IOL, IOL Abbott Medical Optics, Inc., Santa Ana, CA, USA) can provide better intermediate vision in patients undergoing phaco-vitrectomy due to cataract and epiretinal macular membrane (ERM). METHODS A nonrandomized prospective observational comparative study enrolled patients affected by cataract and ERM undergoing phaco-vitrectomy. A follow up of 6 months was established. Corrected and uncorrected visual acuity of both monocular and binocular types were assessed regarding intermediate and far distances. The CATQUEST 9-SF questionnaire was administered preoperatively and at the last follow-up. RESULTS Twenty-three eyes of twenty-three patients were enrolled, with 11 in the enhanced monofocal group. The uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity after 6 months was not statistically different. Both monocular and binocular uncorrected intermediate visual acuity after 6 months were higher in the enhanced monofocal group (p < 0.001). The corrected intermediate visual acuity after 6 months was higher in the enhanced monofocal group (p = 0.01). The CATQUEST-9SF questionnaire showed significant differences in the variation between the preoperative condition and six-month postoperative results (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This refractive enhanced monofocal IOL can provide better intermediate vision compared to a standard monofocal IOL in patients undergoing phaco-vitrectomy due to cataracts and ERM. Further studies are necessary to confirm these results.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the visual results and patient satisfaction after implantation of an extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) in the second eye of patients implanted previously with a monofocal IOL in the first eye. METHODS The medical records and self-reported questionnaires from patients who were implanted with monofocal IOLs in the first eye and EDOF IOLs in the second eye (group A) and from patients implanted bilaterally with EDOF IOLs (group B) were compared for visual acuity (VA), spectacle independence, patient satisfaction, and photic phenomena. RESULTS Group A (23 eyes of 23 patients) had similar distance uncorrected VA and intermediate uncorrected VA compared with group B (72 eyes of 36 patients) (0.03±0.05 vs. 0.04±0.16; P =0.136 and 0.660, respectively). There was a tendency toward a better near uncorrected VA in group A compared with group B (0.15±0.14 vs. 0.23±0.17; P =0.074). Patients' perception of their VA was similar between groups. Spectacle independence for distance vision was reported by 16/17 (94.1%) and 35/36 (97.2%) patients ( P =0.543), 13/17 (76.5%) and 32/36 (88.9%) patients ( P =0.252) for intermediate vision, and 4/17 (23.6%) and 22/36 (61.1%) patients for near vision ( P =0.011), in groups A and B, respectively. There was no difference in complaints of photic phenomena between groups. CONCLUSIONS Patients previously implanted with a monofocal IOL in 1 eye who are interested in improving their spectacle independence can be considered for an EDOF IOL implantation in the second eye and may have similar results to those implanted bilaterally with EDOF IOLs.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the visual performance and optical quality between three new enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs). This retrospective study included patients affected by cataracts with corneal astigmatism less than 0.75 D and no ocular comorbidities who underwent cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of Tecnis Eyhance ICB00 (Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., Jacksonville, FL, USA), Vivinex Impress XY1-EM (Hoya Surgical Optics, Singapore) or IsoPure 123 (PhysIOL, Liege, Belgium) IOLs. Three months postoperatively, monocular and binocular uncorrected and corrected distant, and intermediate and near visual acuities were measured. Binocular defocus curve, photopic contrast sensitivity, Point Spread Function (PSF), low order aberrations (LOAs), high order aberrations (HOAs), objective scatter index (OSI), halo and glare perception were also evaluated. This study included a total of 72 eyes from 36 patients. Visual acuity outcomes, PSF, LOAs, HOAs and OSI were similar between groups. There were no statistically significant differences in terms of photopic contrast sensitivity, halo or glare perception. In patients without ocular comorbidities, the Eyhance ICB00 IOL, the Vivinex Impress IOL and the Isopure IOL-even though based on different optical properties-provided similar results in terms of visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and intraocular aberrations, with no influence on photic phenomena.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preoperative measurements of apparent chord mu length above 0.6 mm have been associated with higher risks for photic phenomena after cataract surgery with multifocal intraocular lenses (MFIOLs). METHODS This retrospective study evaluated patients scheduled for elective cataract surgery at a single tertiary medical center between 2021 and 2022. Pupil diameter and apparent chord mu length were analyzed for eyes with biometry measurements from IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, AG) under photopic light conditions, before and after pharmacological pupil dilatation. Exclusion criteria were visual acuity worse than 20/100, prior intraocular surgery, refractive surgery, iris-related procedures, or pupil abnormalities affecting dilatation. Apparent chord mu lengths before and after pupil dilatation were compared. In addition, multivariate linear regression analysis, using a stepwise method, was conducted to assess possible predictors of apparent chord values. RESULTS Included were 87 eyes of 87 patients. Mean chord mu length increased after pupillary dilatation from 0.32 ± 0.17 mm to 0.41 ± 0.17 mm for right eyes (p < 0.001) and from 0.29 ± 0.16 mm to 0.40 ± 0.22 mm for left eyes (p < 0.001). Seven eyes (8.0%) had an apparent chord mu of 0.6 mm and above pre-dilatation. Fourteen eyes (16.1%) with an apparent chord mu under 0.6 mm pre-dilatation had apparent chord mu of 0.6 mm or above post-dilatation. CONCLUSION Apparent chord mu length significantly increases after pharmacological pupillary dilatation. Pupil size and dilatation status should always be considered during patient selection for a planned MFIOL using apparent chord mu length as a reference marker.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare and contrast functional visual outcomes and levels of patient satisfaction in post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) cataract patients with multifocal, extended depth of focus (EDOF), or monofocal intraocular lens (IOLs). METHODS Three cohorts of post-LASIK eyes with multifocal, EDOF, or monofocal IOLs were evaluated. Objective preoperative and postoperative clinical metrics, including higher-order aberration, contrast sensitivity, and visual acuities, plus subjective responses to a questionnaire about satisfaction, spectacle use, and ability to perform tasks were compared. Variables were regressed against "overall patient satisfaction" to identify predictors of satisfaction. RESULTS Ninety-seven percent of patients were "very satisfied" or "satisfied." "Very satisfied" was significantly greater in multifocal (86.8%, 33 of 38) and EDOF (72.7%, 8 of 11) vs. monofocal (33.3%, 6 of 18) IOLs. However, EDOF IOLs outperformed monofocal IOLs for intermediate ( P =0.04). Contrast sensitivity was significantly worse at distance for multifocal vs. both EDOF ( P =0.05) and monofocal ( P =0.005) IOLs. Regression revealed that greater patient satisfaction in multifocal was explained by near visual function variables, including UNVA ( P =0.001) and UIVA ( P =0.04), reading acuity ( P =0.014), reading speed ( P =0.05), spectacle use at near ( P =0.0014), and ability to read moderate print ( P =0.002). CONCLUSIONS Multifocals achieved high satisfaction levels in post-LASIK patients despite higher-order aberrations and lower contrast sensitivity scores; regression revealed that uncorrected near visual function variables explained high levels of satisfaction; dysphotopsias did not contribute significantly to scores for satisfaction; multifocal IOLs are a viable choice for cataract patients who have previously undergone LASIK.

Abstract
94 million people are blind or visually impaired globally, and cataract is the most common cause of blindness worldwide. However, most cases of blindness are avoidable. Cataract is associated with decreased quality of life and reduced life expectancy. Most cases of cataract occur after birth and share ageing and oxidative stress as primary causes, although several non-modifiable and modifiable risk factors can accelerate cataract formation. In most patients, phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation is the preferred treatment and is highly cost-effective. There has been an increase in the use of comprehensive cataract surgical services, including diagnoses, treatment referrals, and rehabilitation. However, global inequity in surgical service quality is still a limitation. Implementation of preoperative risk assessment, risk reduction strategies, and new surgical technologies have made cataract surgery possible at an earlier stage of cataract severity with the expectation of good refractive outcomes. The main challenge is making the service that is currently available to some patients accessible to all by use of universal health coverage.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evaluation of reading performance with a novel presbyopia correcting intraocular lens (IOL) in refractive lens exchange using an electronic reading desk. DESIGN Prospective interventional before-and-after clinical study. METHODS In total, 56 eyes of 28 patients were included. Bilateral implantation of the TECNIS Synergy IOL (Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision) during a bilateral delayed sequential refractive lens exchange procedure. Uncorrected and distance corrected reading acuity, reading distance, reading speed, and the smallest print size that could be read effectively at a set (40 cm/80 cm) and subjectively chosen near and intermediate distance were assessed using the Salzburg Reading Desk preoperatively and 6 months after surgery. RESULTS Uncorrected near reading acuity increased from 0.61 ± 0.16 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) preoperatively to 0.05 ± 0.09 logMAR postoperatively at the set near distance (40 cm) and from 0.60 ± 0.11 logMAR to 0.07 ± 0.08 logMAR at the subjectively preferred distance (39.6 ± 5.3 cm and 37.7 ± 4.3 cm). Uncorrected intermediate reading acuity was 0.39 ± 0.19 logMAR preoperatively and 0.08 ± 0.07 logMAR postoperatively at the set intermediate distance (80 cm) and 0.43 ± 0.21 logMAR preoperatively and 0.07 ± 0.08 logMAR postoperatively at the preferred intermediate distance (73.5 ± 9.5 cm and 73.3 ± 5.9 cm). CONCLUSIONS Uncorrected intermediate and near reading function considerably improved after bilateral implantation of the TECNIS Synergy IOL. Patients preferred a closer near and intermediate distance to the set distances. However, reading function was comparable for the set and subjectively preferred distances.

Clinical outcomes of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses in patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Sci Rep 2023; 13:786.

Abstract
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is considered a contraindication for the implantation of presbyopia-correcting IOLs, without sufficient corroborating evidence. A Retrospective, case-control study. Nineteen eyes of ten patients with grade 2-5 FECD (study group) and 57 healthy eyes of 57 patients (control group) who underwent cataract surgery with implantation of presbyopia-correcting IOLs, at the Ein-Tal Eye Center, Tel Aviv, Israel, were included. The target refraction was emmetropia for both groups. Two subgroups of IOLs were analyzed separately: extended depth of focus (EDOF), (9 eyes of FECD patients and 27 eyes of control patients) and multifocal IOLs (10 eyes of FECD patients and 30 eyes of control patients). Main outcome measures were visual acuity and refraction 6 weeks after the surgery. Secondary outcomes were patient perceptions of visual acuity, spectacle independence, photic phenomena and satisfaction scores, reported in a self-assessment questionnaire. FECD patients in the EDOF IOL subgroup had inferior uncorrected distance visual acuity (P = 0.007) and better uncorrected near visual acuity (P = 0.001) compared to the controls. They had less spectacle independence for the intermediate range (P = 0.01) and overall (P = 0.006). However, they did not have more photic phenomena. In the multifocal IOL subgroup, no significant differences were found between the FECD and the control group in visual acuity for all ranges and in spectacle independence. FECD patients had more photic phenomena than the controls (P = 0.006), but it did not interfere with daily life activities. There was no difference in post-operative mean spherical equivalent, patient reported visual perception, and general satisfaction between FECD and control patients in both groups. Our results suggest that presbyopia-correcting IOLs can be carefully considered in patients with grade 2-5 FECD, with slightly inferior results compared with healthy eyes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the viability of visual simulation of presbyopic correction in patients with cataract and the effect and impact of the cataract on the perceived visual quality of the different simulated presbyopic corrections preoperatively and postoperatively. SETTING San Carlos Clinical Hospital, Madrid, Spain. DESIGN Observational, noninterventional, pilot study, early feasibility of the device being studied. METHODS Cataract patients were tested preoperatively (n = 24) and postoperatively (n = 15) after bilateral implantation of monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs). The degree of cataract was evaluated objectively with the objective scatter index (OSI). Visual acuity (VA) and perceived visual quality of natural scene images (Multifocal Acceptance Score) were measured before and after cataract surgery at far (4 m), intermediate (64 cm) and near distance (40 cm) with 4 binocular presbyopic corrections (single vision, bifocal, monovision and modified-monovision) simulated with a binocular Simultaneous Vision simulator based on temporal multiplexing. RESULTS VA was significantly correlated with OSI ( r = -0.71, P < .0005), although the visual degradation at far for each correction was constant and not correlated with OSI. The visual benefit at near distance provided by the presbyopic correction was noticeable (23.3% ± 27.6% across corrections) for OSI <5. The individual perceptual scores were highly correlated preoperatively vs postoperatively ( r = 0.64, P < .0005) for all corrections and distances. CONCLUSIONS Visual simulations of IOLs are an excellent tool to explore prospective postoperative vision. The high correlation in the perceptual scores pre- and post-cataract surgery demonstrates that SimVis Gekko can be used in cataractous patients to guide the selection of the optimal correction for a patient.

Megiddo-Barnir E, Alió JL. Latest Development in Extended Depth-of-Focus Intraocular Lenses: An Update. Asia Pac J Ophthalmol (Phila) 2023; 12:58-79.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been an overwhelming influx of different types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) as treatment for presbyopia. The extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) technology creates a single elongated focal point to enhance depth of focus, in contrast to the multiple foci of multifocal (MF) lenses. In this way, the EDOF lenses aim to reduce photic phenomena, glare, and halos, which have been reported in MF IOLs. A potential disadvantage of this is a blur due to decreased retinal image quality when the amount of the aberrations is increased excessively. Multifocality and EDOF characteristics are not exclusive of each other. Frequently, EDOF IOLs are combined with MF optical designs, a bifocal IOL may exhibit EDOF characteristics, likewise an aspheric monofocal IOL or a diffractive or refractive trifocal IOL. Thus, EDOF lenses are commonly subjected to confusion. A wide range of different types of EDOF lenses are available on the market to surgeons. In this practical update, we aim to clarify what is a true EDOF lens, classify the different types of the EDOF lenses based on their optical principle and review their recently reported outcomes. Comprehensive patient examination and selection, combined with knowledge of the most updated options and adequate patient counseling, can avoid dissatisfaction and yield the desired outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the astigmatism tolerance and the visual outcomes after implantation of a premium intraocular lens (IOL) with a continuous transitional focus (Precizon Presbyopic; Ophtec BV) in pseudophakic presbyopia correction. METHODS This prospective study enrolled 20 patients (40 eyes) after bilateral phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. Corrected and uncorrected visual acuities at 4 m and 80, 67, and 40 cm (CDVA, UDVA, DCI80VA, UI80VA, DCI67VA, UI67VA, DCNVA, and UNVA), astigmatic and spheric defocus curve, mean reading speed (MRS), critical print size (CPS), contrast sensitivity, optical aberrations (modulation transfer function [MTF] cut-off, Strehl ratio, and higher order aberration root mean square [HOA RMS]), objective halometry, and National Eye Institute Refractive Error Quality of Life Instrument 42 [NEI RQL-42] questionnaire were evaluated 3 months after surgery. RESULTS Astigmatic defocus curves revealed a tolerance up to -1.00 and +0.75 diopters (D) for with-the-rule astigmatism, and up to -1.00 and +1.00 D for against-the-rule astigmatism. Binocular spheric defocus curve showed that the mean visual acuity was greater than 0.15 logMAR from 1.00 to -1.00 D. MRS, CPS, MTF cut-off, Strehl ratio, and HOA RMS were 116.97 ± 21.94 words/min, 0.45 ± 0.06 logRDA, 20.03 ± 4.86 cycles/degree, 0.11 ± 0.07, and 0.28 ± 0.09, respectively. Contrast sensitivity was within the normal range for all tested light conditions. The NEI RQL-42 evidenced high subjective satisfaction for all subscales, especially for far vision, activity limitations, dependence on correction, suboptimal correction, appearance, and satisfaction with correction. CONCLUSIONS The Precizon Presbyopic IOL allows good astigmatism tolerance and both objective and subjective high quality of vision. [J Refract Surg. 2023;39(1):33-39.].

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the performance of Tecnis Eyhance ICB00 with Tecnis PCB00 IOL for far, intermediate, and near vision, in patients after bilateral cataract surgery. SETTINGS This study was done at Geneva University Hospitals. DESIGN This is a retrospective study of 224 eyes that underwent cataract between May 2019 and June 2020. METHODS Visual acuity was assessed from month 1 to 12 after surgery for distance, intermediate and near visual acuity, by the same optometrist, which was blind regarding the type of IOL. The patients answered to a quality of life questionnaire. Patients were excluded for: monocular surgery, macular disease, other IOL type, or inability to reach 20/20 visual acuity in both eyes without correction. RESULTS One hundred and fifty-two eyes were excluded. Three groups were then analyzed: PCB00 group (38 eyes), ICB00 group (22 eyes), and mismatch group (12 eyes). Monocular visual acuities (CIVA, UNVA and CNVA, in logMAR) were higher in the ICB00 group than the PCB00 group (respectively 0.3 vs 0.4, p = 0.0033; 0.3 vs 0.4, p = 0.0408; 0.3 vs 0.4, p = 0.0039). Binocular visual acuities, CIVA and CNVA were higher in the ICB00 group than the PCB00 group (0.2 vs 0.4, p = 0.0061; 0.15 vs 0.3, p = 0.018). This mirrored the findings of the quality of life questionnaire. There was no significant difference between PCB00 and mismatch groups. CONCLUSIONS the Tecnis Eyhance was more effective for intermediate and near vision. The central defocus of the lens might help patients achieve spectacle independence and better quality of life.

Abstract
A newly developed extended-depth-of-focus AcrySof® Vivity™ intraocular lens (IOL), which has a wavefront-shaped anterior surface, has shown a promising outcome in minimizing dysphotopsia, the biggest issue after diffractive type IOL implantation. On the contrary, relatively low uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) has been raised as a demerit of this IOL. However, there is only limited information about the UNVA after Vivity implantation. In the present study, we compared the uncorrected distant and intermediate visual acuity (UDVA and UIVA) and UNVA according to the range of refractive error (RE) from 91 eyes from 91 patients implanted with Vivity IOL. Then we assessed the biometric factors for their association with UNVA from 66 eyes with a RE within ± 0.25 D. The UDVA was worst in eyes with RE < -0.50 D (0.17 ± 0.21), which was significantly worse than in any other group (P < 0.001 for every analysis). The UIVA was worst in eyes with RE of 0.25 to 0.50 D (0.35 ± 0.07 D), which was significantly worse than in eyes with RE of -0.50 to -0.26 D (P = 0.020) and in eyes with RE of -0.25 to -0.01 D (P = 0.028). The UNVA was worst in eyes with RE of 0.25 to 0.50 D (0.40 ± 0.14 D), which was significantly worse than in eyes with RE of -0.50 to -0.26 D (P = 0.022), which suggests that the extent of monovision should be limited up to -0.50 diopter. On univariate analysis for UNVA in eyes with a RE within ± 0.25 D, the anterior chamber depth (R = 0.257; P = 0.037) and pupil size (R = 0.451; P < 0.001) had a statistically significant relation to UNVA, while multivariate analysis showed the pupil size (β = 0.451; P < 0.001) as the sole indicator, suggesting eyes with a small pupil size might receive a UNVA benefit.

Influence of ocular biometric parameters such as effective lens position, keratometry, and axial length on near add power of multifocal intraocular lens. J Cataract Refract Surg 2022; 48:1331-1334. [PMID: 35405733 DOI: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000000947] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Visual quality after multifocal intraocular lens (mIOL) implantation has received increased attention. Postoperative residual ametropia, posterior capsule opacification, dry eye, IOL decentration, pupil size, and other factors can affect patient visual acuity. In addition, patient dissatisfaction after mIOL implantation has a relationship with the near add power of mIOLs, which is correlated with vision habits of different patients. Indeed, the actual spectacle plane add power of mIOLs is incompletely consistent with the near add power given by the manufacturers. Ocular biometric parameters such as effective lens position, keratometry, and axial length have effect on the near add power of mIOLs in the lens plane. In this article, the influence of ocular biometric eye parameters on the actual near add power of mIOLs in the lens plane was reviewed.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the self-rated quality of vision (SQV) and optical phenomena intensity of 3 diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (mIOLs). SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany. DESIGN Prospective comparative case series. METHODS Patients who had bilateral implantation of a diffractive extended depth-of-focus (EDoF), trifocal, or panfocal mIOL were assessed. Outcome parameters were SQV, symptom intensity of optical phenomena under 3 lighting conditions, quality of everyday lifestyle activities, spectacle independence (SI), and contrast sensitivity (CS). RESULTS The study comprised 108 eyes. The 3 lenses provided good total SQV under all lighting conditions. EDoF patients reported a slightly better total SQV (EDoF: 9.8 ± 6.67, trifocal: 22.2 ± 7.09, panfocal: 19.6 ± 16.25 visual analog scale, P = .041). A similar percentage of patients reported the presence of optical phenomena with no difference between mIOLs ( P > .05). EDoF, trifocal, and panfocal patients rated symptom intensity of optical phenomena mild to moderate under all lighting conditions; however, EDoF patients reported a lower symptom intensity of halos ( P < .05). Reported quality of everyday lifestyle activities and CS were comparable ( P < .05). All panfocal and trifocal patients (100%) achieved complete SI, whereas almost half (44%) of the EDoF patients used reading spectacles. CONCLUSIONS Diffractive EDoF, trifocal, and panfocal mIOLs provided good total SQV with mild to moderate intensity of optical phenomena under all lighting conditions. EDoF patients experienced the same percentage of optical phenomena but reported a weaker symptom intensity of halos and better night-driving ability. EDoF patients would all choose the same IOL, although a significant number of them needed reading spectacles, indicating that SI is not the main factor that determines patient selection of IOLs.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate clinical and subjective outcomes of a segmented bifocal IOL with a 2.0 D near addition. Patients and Methods Retrospective analyses of patients who had undergone refractive lens exchange with bilateral implantation of the SBL-2 IOL (Lenstec, Inc., Christ Church, Barbados) were performed. The number of patients included in the study was 389 (778 eyes). Refractive, visual and patient-reported outcomes were presented for the last available visit (mean follow-up 2.05 ± 1.33 months). Results The percentage of eyes within ±0.50D and ±1.00D of emmetropia was 82.5% (642/778) and 97.8% (761/778), respectively. The mean uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (66 cm) of the last available visit was 0.08 ± 0.15 logMAR monocularly and 0.04 ± 0.14 logMAR binocularly. The mean monocular and binocular uncorrected near visual acuity (40 cm) were 0.30 ± 0.15 logMAR and 0.24 ± 0.14 logMAR, respectively. Of all patients, 97.2% (378/389) claimed never to use any correction for distance vision, while 93.1% (362/389) of patients did not require any correction for near vision. The mean scores for visual phenomena (on the scale from 1 – no difficulty to 7 – severe difficulty) were 1.8 ± 1.3, 1.7 ± 1.2, 1.7 ± 1.2 and 1.6 ± 1.2 for glare, halo, starburst, and ghosting/double vision, respectively. Conclusion Despite the lower near addition of SBL-2 segmented bifocal IOL, patients achieved reasonable rates of spectacle independence and a low incidence of visual phenomena.

Abstract
Purpose To present a case of a 62-year-old patient implanted with multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) who underwent a bilateral IOL exchange due to positive dysphotopsia. In an attempt to reduce the symptoms and compensate for the loss of multifocality, we implanted an aspheric monofocal IOL with enhanced intermediate function in one eye and a spherical monofocal IOL in the other eye. Observations The patient presented with complaints of halo and glare, measured with a simulator, following the implantation of segmented multifocal IOLs two years earlier. The uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was 20/20 in both eyes. Before presentation at our clinic, a laser capsulotomy had been performed on the right eye. We proceeded with a bilateral IOL exchange. Because of capsular insufficiency in the right eye, we implanted a spherical monofocal three-piece IOL in the ciliary sulcus with optic capture. In the left eye, we used a monofocal IOL with an enhanced intermediate function. Two weeks postoperatively, UDVA (monocularly) was 20/20 in OD and OS, the uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA) was 20/32, and the uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) was 20/50. Binocularly, UDVA was 20/20, UIVA was 20/25 and UNVA was 20/25. The patient reported a marked decrease in halos and glare. Conclusions and importance When planning IOL exchange surgery, in cases of intolerance to multifocal IOLs, the clinician should consider the dilemma of loss of multifocality. Recent developments in monofocal IOL technology present new options to improve visual function in cases of multifocal IOL explantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the visual acuity, contrast sensitivity (CS), spectacle needs, photic phenomena, and quality of life parameters of patients bilaterally implanted with a low add multifocal (MIOL) or an extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL), both with intended mini-monovision. METHODS In this prospective, randomized, comparative study, patients were randomized to receive either Tecnis +2.75 D (ZKB00) (MIOL Group, n = 15) or Tecnis Symfony (ZXR00) (EDOF Group, n = 14) for bilateral implantation with mini-monovision (-0.50 D). Binocular logMAR uncorrected visual acuities (UVA), monocular defocus curves, CS with CSV 1000-E, and Pelli-Robson Test (PRT), spectacle needs and quality of life parameters with NEI RQL-42 questionnaire were evaluated at postoperative 1, 3, and 6 months. RESULTS Results of MIOL and EDOF Groups at postoperative month 6 are as follows: distance (6 m) UVA -0.03 ± 0.05 and -0.05 ± 0.06 (p = 0.938), intermediate (60 cm) UVA, 0.04 ± 0.08 and -0.03 ± 0.07 (p = 0.046); near (40 cm) UVA, 0.22 ± 0.08 and 0.15 ± 0.07 (p = 0.046); near spectacle needs, 26.7% and 14.3% (p > 0.05), respectively. Better visual acuity was achieved in the EDOF Group between the defocus range of -0.50 and -1.75 D (p < 0.05). No significant difference was found regarding photic phenomena and CS evaluated with CSV 1000-E between the two IOL groups at 6 months after surgery (otherwise there are differences at 1 and 3 months in favor of EDOF). However, EDOF Group performed better in mesopic CS evaluated with PRT (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS When implanted with mini-monovision better binocular uncorrected visual performance at intermediate and near distances achieved with EDOF than low add MIOL.

Abstract
Purpose. To evaluate the visual performance and clinical outcomes after implantation of Lucidis EDOF IOL following cataract surgery. Design. In this retrospective study, medical records from all enrolled patients were analyzed, and the following information was extracted retrospectively over 3 months following surgery. Materials and Methods. We reviewed retrospectively 181 eyes of 98 patients, who underwent cataract surgery with Lucidis extended depth of focus IOL. Results. 44 patients were males (45%) and 54 were females (55%). The average age of the study population was 68 ± 11 years. The mean preoperative BCVA (logMAR) was 0.19 ± 0.18. The mean root mean square (RMS) high order aberration (HOA) was 0.18 ± 0.1. Monocular BCVA results were 0.02 ± 0.04 (logMAR) and 0.028 ± 0.04 (logMAR) 1 month and 3 months postoperatively, respectively. Between the baseline and 1-month measures, monocular distance BCVA improved by an average of 0.17 ± 0.14 logMAR (
= 0.0001). Between the baseline and 3-month postoperative measures, monocular distance BCVA improved by an average of 0.16 ± 0.13 logMAR (
= 0.0001). Monocular UDVA 1 and 3 months postoperatively was 0.08 ± 0.1 logMAR and 0.067 ± 0.08 logMAR, respectively. 1-Month postoperative binocular UDVA was 0.036 ± 0.05 logMAR, binocular UIVA was 0.1 ± 0.08 logMAR, and binocular UNVA was 0.12 ± 0.14 logMAR. 3-Month postoperative binocular UDVA was 0.038 ± 0.05 logMAR, binocular UIVA was 0.09 ± 0.1 logMAR, and binocular UNVA was 0.16 ± 0.14 logMAR. Conclusions. Lucidis EDOF IOL achieves good visual performances in all distances.

Abstract
Purpose To assess the efficacy, safety, and predictability of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) in cataract patients with previous corneal refractive surgery. Methods A systematic literature search was performed to identify studies evaluating the clinical outcomes of presbyopia-correcting IOLs implantation in cataract surgery after laser refractive surgery. Outcomes were efficacy, safety and predictability parameters. Results The authors identified 13 studies, involving a total of 128 patients and 445 eyes. Presbyopia-correcting IOLs were effective at improving distance, intermediate and near visual acuity aftercataract surgery. The proportion of post-laser surgery eyes with uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) ≥ 20/25 was 0.82 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.74-0.90] and the pooled rates of spectacle independence at near, intermediate, and far distances were 0.98 (95% CI, 0.94-1.00), 0.99 (95% CI, 0.95-1.00) and 0.78 (95% CI, 0.65-0.94) respectively. The percentage of participants who suffered from halos and glare was 0.40 (95% CI, 0.25-0.64) and 0.31 (95% CI, 0.16-0.60), respectively. The predictability had a percentage of 0.66 (95% CI, 0.57-0.75) and 0.90 (95% CI, 0.85-0.96) of eyes within ±0.5 diopters (D) and ±1.0 D from the targeted spherical equivalent. Conclusions Presbyopia-correcting IOLs provide satisfactory results in terms of efficacy, safety and predictability in patients with previous corneal refractive surgery, but have a higher risk of photopic side effects such as halos and glare.

Abstract
Eye diseases such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and cataract are have affected most people at home and abroad for many years. With the development of science and technology, people who wear glasses are now younger, and they are on the rise over time. This paper is to explore the visual function after the implantation of continuous visual range human cocrystal micromonocular vision in both eyes of the patient. On this basis, the latest visual sensor technology is used to conduct clinical research on the operation, a case-control study is performed on the patient's eyes, followed by intraocular lens insertion surgery, one eye is hemitrope and the other eye has a certain degree of intraocular lens inserted, and it is recorded within a period of time after the operation. According to the analysis of the experimental results, the patient's naked eye and corrected distance vision is (t = 2.102, P = 0.049), middle distance vision (t = 1.403, P = 0.200), and near vision (t = 1.463, P = 0.216). After the operation, the ratio of patients taking off glasses 91.8%. After the continuous visual range intraocular lens micromonocular vision design, it can well correct the patient's near and far vision of the naked eye of both eyes.

Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2022; 260:2753-2762. [PMID: 35175409 PMCID: PMC9325843 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-022-05584-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Revised: 01/04/2022] [Accepted: 02/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To assess the results of partial monovision (PMV) in comparison to a bilateral monofocal implantation (MMV). Methods The PMV group was treated bilaterally with a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, followed 3 months later by the implantation of a multifocal AddOn® lens (+ 3.00 D) into the non-dominant eye. The MMV group received a bilateral monofocal IOL implantation intending to achieve a slight anisometropia (0.0 D/ − 0.50 D). The near visual acuity (UNVA), intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), distance visual acuity (UDVA), defocus curve, and Lang-Stereotest II were conducted uncorrected, binocular, and minimum 3 months after the last operation. For the contrast sensitivity test, the patients were refractively corrected. The Quality of Vision Questionnaire (QoV), Visual Function Questionnaire (VF-14), spectacle independence, and general satisfaction were also assessed. Results A total of 27 PMV patients and 28 MMV patients without ocular diseases relevant to visual acuity were examined. The PMV group was significantly better at UNVA (0.11 ± 0.08 logMAR vs 0.56 ± 0.16 logMAR) and between − 2.00 and − 4.00 D in the defocus curve (p < 0.001). At the UIVA, the PMV group was slightly better (0.11 ± 0.10 logMAR vs 0.20 ± 0.18 logMAR) but not significant (p = 0.054). The UDVA (− 0.13 ± 0.09 logMAR vs − 0.09 ± 0.14 logMAR) (p = 0.315) and contrast sensitivity (p = 0.667) revealed no differences between the groups. The stereo vision was in favor of PMV (p = 0.008). Spectacle independence was statistically better for PMV at distance, intermediate, and near (distance p = 0.012; intermediate p < 0.001; near p < 0.001). In the VF-14 Questionnaire, the PMV was statistically superior (p < 0.001). The QoV Questionnaire showed no differences regarding frequency and severity of visual disturbances. Both groups were highly satisfied (p = 0.509). Conclusion Patients with PMV are more independent of glasses and are able to read without disadvantages in distance vision, due to halos and glare. The concept of PMV is well suited for the desire of eyeglass independence, without optical side effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of bilateral refractive lens exchange (RLE) with trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) as the surgical treatment of presbyopia. SETTINGS Memira AS. Norway, Sweden and Denmark. DESIGN Multicentric retrospective interventional case series. METHODS 17 603 consecutive patients submitted to bilateral presbyopic RLE with trifocal IOLs from 2013 to 2019. The main outcomes were manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE), uncorrected distance (UDVA) and near (UNVA) visual acuity, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), vision gain/loss, safety and efficacy indices, IOL power calculation accuracy and rate of excimer laser enhancements. RESULTS Three months postoperatively, the mean MRSE was 0.00±0.40 diopters (D), mean binocular UDVA was -0.03±0.09, with 14 470 patients (82.2%) with combined binocular UDVA and UNVA equal or better than 0.00 and Jaeger 3. Approximately 86% (n=30.124) of the eyes were within 0.50D of MRSE. Enhancement surgery was performed in 5810 eyes (16.5%). IOL power calculation refining improved accuracy and reduced enhancements rate from 20% in 2013 to 12% in 2019. Safety and efficacy indices were 0.98±0.11 and 0.85±0.18, respectively. Myopic eyes presented significant higher safety (1.00±0.19) and efficacy indices (0.87±0.19), with p<0.005. Approximately 0.38% (n=130) of the eyes lost two or more lines of CDVA, with cystoid macular oedema (n=53, 40.8%) and posterior capsular opacification (n=35, 26.9%) as the main causes. After proper care, the final incidence of two or more lines of vision loss was 0.08% (28 eyes). CONCLUSIONS Presbyopic RLE with trifocal IOL is a safe and effective modality of treatment for patients with presbyopia.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare uniocular and binocular visual acuity, wavefront aberrations, and defocus curves using the TECNIS Eyhance (Johnson & Johnson) and RayOne (Rayner) intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS In this prospective, randomized, comparative study, 50 patients (100 eyes) were randomized to receive the same IOL bilaterally (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04175951). Follow-up visits were at 1 and 3 to 9 months postoperatively. Primary outcome measures were uncorrected distance (UDVA) and uncorrected intermediate (UIVA) visual acuity (logMAR) at 66 cm. Secondary outcome measures were corrected distance (CDVA) and distance-corrected intermediate (DCIVA) visual acuity at 66 cm, manifest refraction, spherical (Z40) and vertical coma (Z3-1) aberrations (total, internal eye, and corneal) at normal pupil size, defocus curves, and Catquest 9SF and Glare and Halos questionnaire on Likert scale (1 = no glare and halos and 4 = continuous). RESULTS Uniocular UDVA (P = .02), UIVA (P = .02), and binocular UIVA (P < .01) and uniocular (P = .01) and binocular (P < .01) DCIVA were better with the TECNIS Eyhance IOL at 3 to 9 months. At 3 to 9 months, both uniocular and binocular defocus curves were significantly broader with the TECNIS Eyhance IOL between -0.50 and -3.00 diopters (D). For total and internal eye, there was a statistically but clinically insignificant difference in Z40 with the TECNIS Eyhance IOL. Rasch scores improved (TECNIS Eyhance: 2.04 ± 1.34 to 2.91 ± 0.81 and RayOne:1.61 ± 1.35 to 2.97 ± 0.16) at 3 to 9 months. Refraction, Z3-1, glare, and halos were not different. CONCLUSIONS The TECNIS Eyhance IOL provided better DCIVA and broader defocus curves than the RayOne IOL. There was no difference in CDVA or patient-reported outcomes. Although there were some differences in aberrations when measured with normal pupil size, they were not clinically significant. [J Refract Surg. 2022;38(1):10-20.].

Abstract
UNLABELLED In recent years, a new class of extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lenses (IOLs) has become available on the market. There is only a limited number of scientific papers comparing trifocal and EDOF IOL data, and the results are often contradictory. PURPOSE Comparative analysis of the results of trifocal and EDOF IOL implantation in patients with presbyopia and/or cataract. MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective study included 72 patients (144 eyes) after bilateral implantation of either Tecnis Symfony EDOF IOL (18 patients, 36 eyes; group I) or AcrySof PanOptix trifocal IOL (54 patients, 108 eyes; group II). In 18 patients out of 72 (25%) the implantation involved mini-monovision, i.e. the calculation of the IOL power on the nondominant eye was performed at -0.5 D. The average follow-up period for the patients was 7.1±1.2 months. RESULTS There was a significant (p<0.05) increase in uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA) and uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA) at the maximum follow-up time compared to the preoperative indices in all groups. Group II was characterized by slightly better UCNVA dynamics (0.85±0.13 versus 0.2±0.04 before surgery, as comparted to 0.78±0.11 versus 0.19±0.06 before surgery in group I), but differences were not statistically significant (p>0.05). Statistically significant differences (p=0.046) were observed when comparing best corrected near vision acuity (BCNVA) in groups I and II (0.79±0.05 and 0.98±0.08, respectively) at 6 months compared to the preoperative period (0.62±0.09 and 0.6±0.11, respectively). CONCLUSION Trifocal IOL implantation was associated with acceptable near and far vision correction and a higher frequency of adverse optical phenomena, while implantation of the EDOF IOL was associated with slightly better correction of intermediate vision and a significantly lower incidence of halo and glare. Patients were satisfied with the outcomes of surgery in all cases.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas from two biometers using swept-source optical coherence tomography for quadrifocal Acrysof IQ Panoptix TFNT IOL (Alcon Laboratories, Inc) implantation in patients with visually significant cataract with previous corneal refractive surgery. METHODS This retrospective study comprised 50 eyes from 50 patients with a history of corneal refractive surgery and TFNT IOL implantation. Candidate formulas were Shammas-PL and Barrett True-K in the Argos (Movu, Inc), Barret True-K and Haigis-L in the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG), and Haigis using the total keratometry (TK) mode in the IOLMaster 700. The main outcome measure was the mean absolute error (MAE) detected at postoperative 6 months. The refractive accuracy was also evaluated as number and percentage of eyes within ±0.25, ±0.50, and ±0.75 diopters (D) of the prediction error. RESULTS The uncorrected distance and near visual acuity were 0.32 ± 0.34 and 0.46 ± 0.20 logMAR at baseline, and significantly improved to 0.04 ± 0.07 and 0.03 ± 0.06 logMAR at postoperative 6 months (P < .001 for all analysis) with a mean spherical equivalent of -0.20 ± 0.39 D. The MAE was smallest for the Barrett True-K formula in the IOLMaster 700 (0.36 ± 0.26 D) and largest for the Shammas-PL formula in the Argos (0.59 ± 0.37 D). The Barrett True-K formula from both devices showed that 90% of eyes were within ±0.75 D of MAE. CONCLUSIONS The visual and refractive outcomes of TFNT IOL implantation in patients with previous corneal refractive surgery were favorable. The Barrett True-K formula in the IOLMaster 700 showed the best refractive outcome for TFNT IOL implantation. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(11):836-841.].

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare visual acuity, defocus curve and visual quality of life performances of a new hybrid refractive-diffractive intraocular lens (IOL) and a trifocal diffractive IOL. METHODS Patients who underwent cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of ZFR00V or TFNT00 IOLs were enrolled in this study. The main outcomes were defined as uncorrected distant, intermediate and near visual acuities (UDVA, UIVA and UNVA, respectively), defocus curve and VF-14 questionnaire aimed for visual performance. RESULTS Fifty patients, of whom 30 had bilateral ZFR00V implantation, were enrolled in the study. Patients with ZFR00V had significantly better UIVA than patients with TFNT00 (0.05 ± 0.03 vs. 0.07 ± 0.04 logMAR, P = 0.02). Defocus curve showed significantly higher visual acuity in intermediate range for ZFR00V IOL between -1.00 and -1.50 dioptres (all P < 0.05). All patients had good visual performance with mean VF-14 scores above 3 points with no significant difference between two IOL models. Spectacle independence was 100% for both distant and near vision in both group of patients. CONCLUSION Bilateral implantation of ZFR00V in cataract patients shows better intermediate visual acuity scores and similar daily visual performance when compared with trifocal TFNT00 IOL.

Abstract
This was a prospective study to evaluate the feasibility of the photic phenomena test (PPT) for quantifying glare, halo, and starburst. We compared two presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs), the Symfony IOL and the PanOptix IOL, as well as the monofocal Clareon IOL in 111 IOL-implanted eyes of 111 patients who underwent the PPT 1 month postoperatively. The reproducibility of photic phenomena with the PPT was assessed in 39 multifocal IOL-implanted eyes of 20 patients and among the examiners. Patients with ocular diseases, except for refractive errors, were excluded. The mean values of the groups were evaluated. Bland–Altman plots were used to analyze statistical data (Easy R version 1.37; R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria). The PPT reproducibility assessment revealed no fixed bias or regressive significance. Reproducibility was confirmed. The glare size did not differ significantly between the Symfony, PanOptix, and Clareon groups. The halo size was significantly larger in the Symfony group (p < 0.01) than in the PanOptix group. The halo intensity was significantly brighter in the PanOptix group (p < 0.01) than in the Symfony group. In contrast, no halos were perceived in the Clareon group. The starburst size or intensity did not differ significantly between the Symfony, PanOptix, and Clareon groups. We identified the photic phenomenon related to various IOLs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate functional outcome after retinal detachment (RD) repair surgery in eyes with a multifocal intraocular lens (mIOL). SETTING Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany. DESIGN Single-center case control study. METHODS 52 pseudophakic eyes with successful anatomical outcome after surgical RD repair were included. Retrospectively, 21 mIOL eyes were compared with a matched group of 21 monofocal eyes over 6 weeks. Prospectively, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was evaluated over 12 months in these eyes. Furthermore, uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity (UDVA, UIVA, and UNVA, respectively), defocus curves, and patient-reported outcomes were evaluated at 1 year in 24 mIOL eyes. RESULTS 52 eyes of 48 patients comprised the study. The mean CDVA (logMAR) improved significantly from 1.35 ± 1.38 to 0.29 ± 0.37 at 6 weeks and remained stable at 12 months postoperatively in monofocal eyes (P = .001) and from 1.16 ± 1.2 to 0.37 ± 0.29 (6 weeks) and 0.20 ± 0.36 (12 months) in mIOL eyes (P = .001). Univariate factorial analysis of variance showed no statistically significant differences in CDVA at 6 weeks or 12 months postoperatively for IOL type or for preoperative macular status (P > .05). In the prospective cohort of 24 mIOL eyes, a mean CDVA of 0.13 ± 0.33 logMAR, UDVA of 0.21 ± 0.34 logMAR, UIVA of 0.17 ± 0.28 logMAR, and UNVA of 0.23 ± 0.32 logMAR was achieved. Macular status did not affect final outcome significantly (P > .05). Most patients stated they usually did not need spectacles; no patient wanted mIOL replacement. CONCLUSIONS 1 year after successful anatomical repair after 23-gauge vitrectomy with gas tamponade, functionality of mIOL was restored, and CDVA was comparable with that of patients with monofocal IOL.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the visual acuity, defocus curve and visual quality of life following bilateral implantation of a new hybrid extended depth of focus (EDOF)-multifocal diffractive intraocular lens (IOL). Methods: Patients who underwent cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of Tecnis Synergy IOL were enrolled in this study. The main outcomes were defined as uncorrected distant, intermediate and near visual acuities (UDVA, UIVA and UNVA, respectively), defocus curve and VF-14 questionnaire aimed for visual performance. Results: The mean ± SD values for binocular UDVA, UIVA and UNVA were -0.01 ± 0.04, 0.05 ± 0.03 and 0.03 ± 0.05 logMAR, respectively. Defocus curve showed a continuous vision above 0.16 logMAR between +0.50 D and -2.50 D. Patients had good visual performance with mean VF-14 scores above 3 points. Driving at night (3.47 ± 0.64) was found to be the most difficult task to perform. Spectacle independence was 100% for both distant and near vision. Conclusion: Bilateral implantation of Tecnis Synergy IOL in cataract patients shows good visual acuity and performance, covering a good visual range without any need of spectacles.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess patient satisfaction and quality of life after refractive lens exchange with a trifocal intraocular lens (IOL). METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent refractive lens exchange with the AT LISA tri or AT LISA tri toric IOL (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) at one of five surgical centers were surveyed for their quality of life and satisfaction after surgery using a standardized questionnaire. Patient responses were compared to patient characteristics such as age, sex, axial lengths, and preoperative refraction. RESULTS A total of 102 patients with 204 treated eyes were included in the analysis. The mean age was 54.6 ± 5.2 years. A total of 172 eyes were hypermetropic, 3 were emmetropic, and 25 were myopic, with a mean preoperative refractive error of 0.93 ± 2.17 diopters. Reported postoperative satisfaction was as follows: 81.4% stated that their expectations were completely met and 17.6% stated that they were partially met. Self-reported refractive error quality of life improved significantly in all queried areas of life. Most frequently reported postoperative limitations were driving at night and driving in bad weather conditions. Halos were reported by 91 (90.1%) patients. CONCLUSIONS Patient satisfaction and self-reported quality of life after refractive lens exchange with the AT LISA tri or AT LISA tri toric IOL was high. Glare and halos remain the only significant drawback of the procedure, leading to 40% of patients experiencing difficulties in night driving. Preoperative communication of these drawbacks is obligatory to avoid postoperative disappointment. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(11):768-774.].

Cases of replacing diffractive bifocal intraocular lens with extended depth of focus intraocular lens due to waxy vision. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0259470. [PMID: 34714884 PMCID: PMC8555820 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0259470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2021] [Accepted: 10/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the postoperative course of patients who explanted a diffractive bifocal intraocular lens (IOL) due to waxy vision and implanted with an extended depth of focus IOL. Methods This study evaluated 29 eyes of 25 patients who underwent diffractive bifocal IOL explantation followed by TECNIS Symfony® implantation because of dissatisfaction due to waxy vision at the Takabatake West Eye Clinic between January 2018 and November 2019. The indication criteria for this surgery were patients with uncorrected distance visual acuity of 0.05 logMAR or better, without eye diseases that may affect visual function, and no dissatisfactions about photic phenomena. We investigated patient demographics, uncorrected and corrected visual acuity, manifest refraction, contrast sensitivity, subjective symptoms, time to IOL explantation, explanted IOL type, and spectacle independence. Results The time to the IOL exchange after the initial IOL implantation was 55.3 ± 50.4 days (range: 14–196 days). The logMAR corrected distance visual acuity before and after IOL exchange were −0.13 ± 0.06 and −0.14 ± 0.06, respectively (p = 0.273). After IOL exchange surgery, the area under log contrast sensitivity function increased significantly from 1.07 ± 0.12 to 1.21 ± 0.12 (p < 0.001), and the waxy vision symptoms improved. The spectacle independence rate at the last visit was 88.0%. Conclusion For patients who complain of waxy vision despite good visual acuity after diffractive bifocal IOL implantation, exchange to extended depth of focus IOL was considered one of the useful surgical options.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of age on intraocular lens (IOL) attributes preference. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 4213 eyes that underwent smooth phacoemulsification and IOL implantation between January 2005 and June 2018. Patients were subdivided into six groups according to their ages, i.e.,≤40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70, 71-80, and ≥ 81 years old. The difference in preference of IOL attributes regarding age, gender, and year of surgery was analyzed separately. The analyzed IOL attributes included asphericity, astigmatism-correction, presbyopia-correction, and blue-blocking function. RESULTS The patients averaged 68.3 ± 11.6 years old at the time of surgery. There was no significant difference in age between males and females. There were 1980 patients (47.0%) selected aspheric IOL, 822 patients (19.5%) selected multifocal (MF) IOL, 93 patients (2.2%) selected toric IOL, and 859 patients (20.4%) selected blue-blocking IOL. Adoption of aspheric and MF IOL increased significantly during the study (P < 0.001 for both attributes). There were more young patients selected aspheric and MF IOL (P < 0.001 for both), and the change in the trend of adoption over the years was also most significant in the young group (P < 0.001 for both). The proportion of patients that selected blue-blocking IOL decreased significantly after 2011 (P < 0.001). There was no gender preference in aspheric, MF, and toric IOL selection. However, there were more male patients selected blue-blocking IOL (P = 0.018). CONCLUSION The adoption of IOLs with emerging technologies increased significantly over the years. Younger adults tended to adopt advanced technology IOL more than the older ones.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the preoperative factors affecting visual acuity after the implantation of a diffractive multifocal intraocular lens. METHODS This study evaluated 774 eyes of 774 patients who underwent cataract surgery with TECNIS Multifocal ZLB00 lens (Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision) implantation. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (CASIA2; Tomey Corporation) was performed as a part of the preoperative eye examination. Sex, age, axial length, and CASIA2 parameters, such as crystalline lens diameter and lens tilt relative to the corneal topographic axis, were investigated. The eyes considered were classified into good (20/20 or better) or poor (worse than 20/20) far vision groups based on corrected distance visual acuity, and good (20/25 or better) or poor (worse than 20/25) near vision groups based on distance-corrected near visual acuity, respectively. Preoperative characteristics of both groups were compared to determine factors affecting postoperative visual acuity. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that older age (P < .001), a short axial length (P = .010), and a large lens tilt (P < .001) were associated with poor near vision. There was no significant difference between the two far vision groups. There was a significant negative correlation between lens tilt and axial length (r = -0.513, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that age, axial length, and lens tilt to the corneal topographic axis may predict poor visual acuity after the implantation of a diffractive multifocal intraocular lens. Eyes with a short axial length tended to have a large degree of lens tilt and should be considered particularly carefully. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(10):674-679.].
