Capsular Tension Ring Implantation for Intraocular Lens Decentration and Tilt in Highly Myopic Eyes: A Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Ophthalmol 2024:2820325. [PMID: 38935400 PMCID: PMC11211984 DOI: 10.1001/jamaophthalmol.2024.2215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Importance Capsular tension rings (CTRs) can support weak zonules and inhibit capsular shrinkage, thus potentially reducing intraocular lens (IOL) decentration and tilt. However, it has been debated whether CTRs can reduce IOL decentration and tilt in highly myopic eyes and whether CTR implantation is necessary for all highly myopic eyes. Objective To evaluate the influence of CTR implantation on IOL decentration and tilt in highly myopic eyes. Design, Setting, and Participants This randomized clinical trial was conducted between November 2021 and September 2023 at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Guangzhou, China. Patients with cataract and an axial length (AL) of 26 mm or longer were enrolled. Interventions Participants were stratified into 3 groups based on the AL (stratum 1, 26 mm ≤ AL <28 mm; stratum 2, 28 mm ≤ AL <30mm; stratum 3, AL ≥30 mm), and further randomly assigned to the CTR group (a C-loop IOL combined with a CTR) or the control group (only a C-loop IOL) within each stratum. Main Outcomes and Measures IOL decentration at 3 months after cataract surgery was evaluated using anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Results A total of 186 eyes of 186 participants (mean [SD] age, 57.3 [10.9] years; 118 female [63.4%]) were randomized into the CTR group (93 [50%]) or control group (93 [50%]), with 87 eyes (93.6%) and 92 eyes (98.9%) completing follow-up at 3 months, respectively. The CTR group showed smaller IOL decentration (0.19 mm vs 0.23 mm; difference, -0.04 mm; 95% CI, -0.07 to -0.01 mm; P = .02) and tilt at 3 months, and lower proportions of clinically significant IOL decentration (≥0.4 mm) and tilt (≥7°) at 3 months compared with the control group. Similar results were only found in eyes with an AL of 30 mm or longer (IOL decentration: 0.20 mm vs 0.28 mm; difference, -0.08 mm; 95% CI, -0.14 to -0.02 mm; P = .01). Additionally, the CTR group showed a smaller change in IOL decentration from 1 week to 3 months, higher prediction accuracy, and better visual quality and patient satisfaction in this stratum. No differences were observed between the CTR and control groups in eyes with an AL less than 30 mm. Conclusions and Relevance CTR implantation reduced C-loop IOL decentration and tilt, increased position stability, and improved visual quality in eyes with an AL of 30 mm or longer. These findings support use of CTR implantation in eyes with an AL of 30 mm or longer and implanted with C-loop IOLs. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05161520.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform an intraindividual comparison of the quality of vision and the effect of decentration between two aspheric intraocular lenses: aspheric balanced curve (ABC) design Vivinex iSert XY1 (Hoya Surgical Optics, Singapore) and anterior aspheric design Tecnis ZCB00 (Abbott Medical Optics, CA). SETTING Tertiary Eye Care Centre. DESIGN Prospective, randomized comparative study using a random number table. METHODS Thirty patients were randomized to the implantation of Vivinex iSert XY1 in one eye and Tecnis ZCB00 in the contralateral eye. Then, 12 weeks postoperatively, a laser ray-tracing aberrometer was used to evaluate the visual Strehl ratio, higher-order aberrations (HOA), decentration of IOL from the visual axis and geometric axis, angle alpha, and angle kappa. Contrast sensitivity was measured using the functional visual analyzer. RESULTS The visual internal Strehl ratio was higher ( P < 0.05) at all pupil sizes and the spherical aberrations values were lower ( P < 0.05) at larger pupil sizes (5 mm and 6 mm) in the Vivinex group. The mean decentration from the visual axis in the Vivinex group was significantly more than that in the Tecnis group ( P < 0.01). With an increase in angle alpha, there was a greater decline in the visual Strehl ratio for Tecnis; however, there was a statistically significant decline at 3 mm pupil size for Tecnis ZCB00 ( P = 0.028). The contrast sensitivity was similar for both IOLs. CONCLUSION In comparison to an anterior aspheric design IOL, the ABC design IOL yielded better quality of vision, neutralized spherical aberrations to a larger extent, and provided a relatively superior quality of vision with decentration.

Repeatability of Pentacam-derived intraocular lens decentration measurements and the level of agreement with OPD-Scan III: A prospective observational case series. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0299064. [PMID: 38517869 PMCID: PMC10959365 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0299064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/24/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the repeatability of intraocular lens (IOL) decentration measurements obtained through Pentacam, based on corneal topographic axis (CTA) and pupillary axis (PA), and to evaluate the level of agreement between Pentacam and OPD-Scan III devices in measuring IOL decentration. METHODS In this prospective observational case series, three measurements were performed with Pentacam to evaluate the repeatability of the measurements. The analysis included the calculation of the mean and standard deviations (SD), conducting a repeated measures analysis of variance (rANOVA), and determining an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) to assess the repeatability of the measurements. Moreover, Bland-Altman analysis was employed to assess the agreement between Pentacam and OPD-Scan III devices in measuring IOL decentration. IOL decentration measurements were obtained with respect to both CTA and PA. RESULTS A total of 40 eyes from 40 patients were analyzed. The rANOVA revealed no significant difference among three consecutive measurements of IOL decentration obtained with Pentacam. The mean SD of all parameters ranged from 0.04 mm to 0.07 mm. With CTA as the reference axis, the ICC values for Pentacam measurements of IOL decentration were 0.82 mm for the X-axis, 0.76 mm for the Y-axis, and 0.82 mm for spatial distance. When using PA as the reference axis, the corresponding ICC values were 0.87, 0.89, and 0.77, respectively. The 95% limits of agreement for all IOL decentration measurements were wide when comparing Pentacam and OPD-Scan III. CONCLUSIONS Pentacam demonstrated high repeatability in measuring IOL decentration with respect to both CTA and PA. However, due to poor agreement between Pentacam and OPD-Scan III measurements, caution should be exercised when using data interchangeably between the two devices.

Intraocular lens tilt and decentration in secondary ciliary sulcus implantation in paediatric eyes: A 3-year prospective study. Acta Ophthalmol 2024. [PMID: 38292001 DOI: 10.1111/aos.16643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the tilt and decentration of one-piece anti-vaulting haptic intraocular lenses (IOL) and three-piece C-loop haptic IOLs in paediatric eyes undergoing secondary IOL implantation into the ciliary sulcus. METHODS Paediatric aphakic patients receiving either one-piece anti-vaulting haptic or three-piece C-loop haptic IOL implants into the ciliary sulcus were enrolled in this prospective non-randomized interventional study and followed up for 3 years. IOL decentration and tilt were measured using Scheimpflug images. Preoperative and postoperative information, including demographic data and ocular biometric parameters and complications, were collected and analysed. RESULTS Among 123 eyes of 79 paediatric patients, there were 72 eyes (58.54%) in the anti-vaulting haptic IOL group and 51 eyes (41.46%) in the C-loop haptic group. The anti-vaulting haptic IOL group had a lower incidence of clinically significant vertical IOL decentration than the C-loop haptic IOL group (23.88% vs. 43.14%, p = 0.037). No intergroup differences were observed in vertical or horizontal tilt or in horizontal decentration (all p > 0.05). One-piece anti-vaulting haptic IOL implantation was associated with a lower risk of clinically significant vertical decentration than three-piece C-loop haptic IOL implantation (odds ratio: 0.42, p = 0.037). There was a higher incidence of IOL dislocation in the C-loop haptic IOL group (15.22% vs. 4.17%, p = 0.046). CONCLUSIONS In paediatric aphakic eyes undergoing secondary IOL implantation into the ciliary sulcus, one-piece anti-vaulting haptic IOLs can reduce the risk of clinically significant vertical IOL decentration compared with three-piece C-loop haptic IOLs and may favour long-term IOL positional stability.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyse and compare image acuity for different refractive errors generated by either altering axial length or corneal curvature and using three human eye models with two pupil sizes. METHODS Three different eye models, Liou-Brennan, Goncharov and Navarro, were used. Simulations were made (using Ansys Zemax OpticStudio 22.3) for real pupil sizes of 3 and 6 mm with refractive errors ranging from -2 to +2 D in 0.25 D increments. Refractive errors were simulated by varying axial length or corneal curvature. Root mean square (RMS) values were used to determine image acuity. RESULTS For the 3-mm pupil, all models gave similar results, with the Navarro model having slightly higher RMS values for the emmetropic eye. For the 6-mm pupil, the Liou-Brennan and Goncharov eye models gave similar results, with RMS values lower than for the Navarro eye model. The highest RMS value was visible in the axial length-induced refractive errors. Refractive errors generated by altering corneal curvature give smaller RMS values than those generated by altering axial length. The axial length and corneal radius simulations indicate a wide spread of results for myopic, hyperopic and emmetropic eyes. There are multiple outcomes that give the same refractive error, even within a single-eye model. The axial length/corneal curvature ratio showed a higher ratio for myopes than hyperopes for every model. CONCLUSIONS The influence of refractive error on image acuity varied depending on the simulation method of refractive error and the model used. The origins of refractive error and the influence it has on image acuity need further investigation. As models become more sophisticated, personalised and biologically relevant, they will better represent the image acuity of the eye for varying refractive errors, ethnicities, ages and pupil sizes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorrhexis (PPCCC) on the positional stability of IOLs. METHODS This study is a prospective intra-individual comparative randomized controlled trial including 31 patients (62 eyes). Eyes of the same patient were randomly assigned to the PPCCC group (18 right eyes and 13 left eyes) or group without PPCCC (NPCCC group). Eyes in both groups were implanted with a one-piece foldable hydrophobic acrylic IOL via routine cataract surgery. Patients in the PPCCC group underwent additional manual PPCCC before IOL implantation. Examinations were performed 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months postoperatively. IOL tilt (x, y), decentration (x, y), anterior chamber depth (z) and refractive prediction error data were collected and analyzed with Pentacam. RESULTS Postoperatively, the range of IOL position change over 3 months in PPCCC group was comparable to NPCCC group, which indicated smaller value in every tilt and decentration index. PPCCC eyes showed comparable tilt and decentration with NPCCC eyes in this study endpoint: mean tilt (x, y), decentration (x, y) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were 1.04 ± 0.56°, 0.90 ± 0.64°, 0.239 ± 0.140 mm, 0.233 ± 0.133 mm and 4.01 ± 0.32 mm, respectively, in the PPCCC group vs. 1.09 ± 0.76°, 1.10 ± 0.82°, 0.252 ± 0.153 mm, 0.244 ± 0.155 mm and 4.01 ± 0.38 mm, respectively, in the NPCCC group. Refractive prediction error in the PPCCC group demonstrated a mild hyperopic shift vs. the NPCCC group (0.13 ± 0.50 vs. 0.05 ± 0.39; p = 0.208), and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) did not differ between the two groups (0.027 ± 0.014 vs. 0.059 ± 0.185; p = 0.377). CONCLUSIONS Comparable IOL tilt, decentration, ACD and refractive prediction error were observed in PPCCC eyes with that underwent routine cataract surgery. Little IOL position fluctuation and good visual acuity were shown in PPCCC group over time. TRAIL REGISTRATION The study was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Register Center on May 27th, 2020 (protocol code ChiCTR2000033304, 27/05/2020).

Clinical and Aberrometric Outcomes of a New Implantable Collamer Lens for Myopia and Presbyopia Correction in Phakic Patients. J Refract Surg 2023; 39:589-596. [PMID: 37675906 DOI: 10.3928/1081597x-20230726-02] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 09/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the clinical and aberrometric outcomes of a new Implantable Collamer Lens (EVO Viva ICL; STAAR Surgical) to correct moderate to high myopia and presbyopia. METHODS The study included 80 eyes of 40 patients who had bilateral EVO Viva ICL implantation. Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, refraction, presbyopic add power, binocular through-focus visual acuity, total ocular spherical aberration (SA), coma aberration, and root mean square of ocular higher order aberrations (RMS HOAs) (i-Trace Aberrometer; Tracey Technologies) for a 4.5-mm pupil size were evaluated. RESULTS The mean binocular postoperative UDVA and CDVA were 0.09 ± 0.19 and 0.02 ± 0.03 logMAR, respectively. The postoperative spherical equivalent was -0.61 ± 0.54 diopters (D). The presbyopic add power reduced from +1.31 ± 0.74 D preoperatively to +0.44 ± 0.58 D after surgery (P < .0001). The mean visual acuity was 0.1 logMAR or better (20/25 or better) across the vergence range from +0.50 to -1.50 D, better than 0.2 logMAR (20/32 or better) up to the vergence of -2.00 D, and remained better than 0.3 logMAR (20/40 or better) up to the vergence of -2.50 D. The total ocular aberrations induced by EVO Viva ICL were -0.34 ± 0.09 µm of SA, 0.24 ± 0.18 µm of coma, and 0.26 ± 0.12 µm of RMS HOAs. CONCLUSIONS The outcomes support that the new ICL might be a good alternative for myopia and presbyopia correction in patients aged between 45 and 55 years. Further studies are needed to evaluate the threshold lens misalignment from which the patient´s visual quality would be affected. [J Refract Surg. 2023;39(9):589-596.].

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare intraocular lens (IOL) decentration between patients in whom the continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) completely covers the IOL optic and those in whom it incompletely covers the IOL optic and determine how an incompletely covered CCC affects the IOL position. SETTING Tertiary hospital in Japan. DESIGN Single-center retrospective study. METHODS 57 eyes of 57 patients (mean age 70.8 ± 6.2 years) that underwent phacoemulsification and IOL (SN60WF) implantation in the bag between April 2010 and April 2015 were included in this study. The patients were classified based on whether the CCC completely (CC group) or incompletely (NCC group) covered the IOL optic using an anterior eye segment analysis system (EAS-1000). The IOL decentration of the groups was analyzed using EAS-1000 at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively and compared. The relationship between the NCC location and the IOL direction at 3 months postoperatively was analyzed. RESULTS The NCC group (25 eyes) had a significantly higher amount of IOL decentration than the CC group (32 eyes) at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively ( P < .05). There was a correlation between the direction of IOL decentration and the NCC location, and IOL decentration in the NCC group occurred in the opposite direction to the NCC area. CONCLUSIONS An anterior capsule opening that completely covers the IOL optic is important to control IOL decentration.

[PMID: 37128498 PMCID: PMC10147968 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajoc.2023.101845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose To report two patients with a complication of Yamane intrascleral haptic fixation surgery (ISHF) with the Zeiss CT Lucia 602 lens: severely tilted intraocular lens (IOL) leading to significantly decreased vision in the early post-operative period. Observations We report two patients presenting with severely tilted IOL implants one day and one month following Yamane ISHF. The first patient is a monocular 81-year-old woman referred for treatment of cornea edema. Initial surgery involved replacement of an anterior chamber lens with a CT Lucia 602 posterior chamber lens using Yamane technique and Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty. The patient returned at one month follow-up with poor vision and IOL tilt observable at the slit lamp through a peripheral iridectomy site. Explanation of the Zeiss lens revealed haptic distortion at the optic-haptic insertion point such that each haptic was about 45° off axis to the plane of the optic in approximately equal and opposite directions. The second patient, a 75-year-old woman, was referred with a completely dislocated lens-bag complex in the right eye. The initial operative treatment for this patient included pars plana vitrectomy, retrieval and removal of the dislocated lens-bag complex, and placement of a Zeiss 602 lens via Yamane ISHF technique. On the first postoperative day, the patient was count fingers in the right eye with an intraocular pressure of 5 mm Hg and obvious IOL tilt on slit lamp examination. Explanation of the lens revealed severely distorted haptics relative to the optic by more than a 60-degree angle on both sides. In both cases, initial surgery was performed with an IOL inspected prior to implantation and found to have normal appearing haptics. At the end of each case, there was adequate centration and no tilt of the IOL. Management in both patients included removal of the defective lens and placement of a new, same power CT Lucia 602 lens via the Yamane technique. Visual acuity improved from CF to 20/30 best corrected after reoperation in both cases. Conclusions and importance In summary, we describe a complication of Yamane ISHF with the CT Lucia 602 lens in which there is lens tilting associated with distortion at the optic-haptic fastening zone in the early postoperative period. In the event of a titled lens following Yamane ISHF, awareness of this complication may help surgeons consider lens replacement, as the haptics may be permanently distorted or damaged.

Abstract
In this work, we propose a new diffractive trifocal intraocular lens design with focus extension, conceived to provide a high visual performance at intermediate distances. This design is based on a fractal structure known as the "Devil's staircase". To assess its optical performance, numerical simulations have been performed with a ray tracing program using the Liou-Brennan model eye under polychromatic illumination. The simulated through the focus visual acuity was the merit function employed to test its pupil-dependence and its behavior against decentering. A qualitative assessment of the multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) was also performed experimentally with an adaptive optics visual simulator. The experimental results confirm our numerical predictions. We found that our MIOL design has a trifocal profile, which is very robust to decentration and has low degree of pupil dependence. It performs better at intermediate distances than at near distances and, for a pupil diameter of 3 mm, it works like an EDoF lens over almost the entire defocus range.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the risk factors and construct nomogram models to predict the risks of clinically significant intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration after cataract surgery in patients with age-related cataract. SETTING Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Guangzhou, China. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS 207 patients (207 eyes) who underwent phacoemulsification combined with IOL implantation were enrolled in the study. Casia2 was used to measure the tilt and decentration of crystalline lenses and IOLs before and 3 months after surgery. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk factors of clinically significant IOL tilt and decentration, and nomogram prediction models were constructed according to the results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Two hundred and seven patients were included in analysis. 24 eyes (11.59%) and 16 eyes (7.73%) had clinically significant IOL tilt and decentration at 3 months after cataract surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative crystalline lens tilt and decentration were the risk factors for clinically significant IOL tilt (odds ratio [OR], 3.519, P < .001) and decentration (OR, 410.22, P = .001), respectively. Axial length was another association factor for clinically significant IOL decentration (OR, 2.155, P = .019). The risk models demonstrated good calibrations and discriminations for the predictions of clinically significant IOL tilt (receiver operating characteristic [ROC] area = 0.833, cutoff value = 6.5) and decentration (ROC area = 0.757, cutoff value = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS The good performances of our models suggested that they may be useful risk prediction tools for postoperative IOL tilt and decentration. The measurement of preoperative crystalline lens tilt and decentration should be one of the routine examinations before cataract surgery, especially for toric and multifocal IOLs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intraocular lenses (IOLs) may lose their optical quality if they are not correctly placed inside the capsular bag once implanted. One possible malpositioning of the IOL could be the implantation in an upside-down position. In this work, three aspheric IOLs with different spherical aberration (SA) have been designed and numerically tested to analyse the optical quality variation with the IOL flip, and misalignments, using a theoretical model eye. METHODS Using the commercial optical design software OSLO, the effect of decentration and tilt was evaluated by numerical ray tracing in two conditions: in their designed position and flipped with respect to the planned position (IOL is implanted upside down). The theoretical model eye used was the Atchison model eye. Seven IOL designs of +27.00 diopters were used: a lens with negative SA to correct the corneal SA, a lens to partially correct the corneal SA, and a lens to not add any SA to the cornea (aberration-free IOL). These lenses were designed with the aspherical surface located on the anterior and posterior IOL surface. A lens with no aspherical surfaces was also included. For the optical quality analysis, the modulation transfer function (MTF) was used, together with the Zernike wavefront aberration coefficients of defocus, astigmatism, and primary coma. RESULTS Off-centring and tilting the IOL reduced overall MTF values and increased wavefront aberration errors. With the IOL correctly positioned within the capsular bag, an aberration-free IOL is the best choice for maintaining optical quality. When the IOL is flipped inside the capsular bag, the optical quality changes, with the aberration-free IOL and the IOL without aspheric surfaces providing the worst results. With the lens in an upside-down position, an IOL design to partially correct corneal SA shows the best optical quality results in decentration and tilt, in terms of MTF and wavefront aberrations. CONCLUSION The aberration-free IOL is the best choice when minimal postoperative errors of decentration or tilt are predicted. With IOL flip, the negative SA lens design is the best choice, regarding the root mean square wavefront aberrations. However, in a proper IOL implantation, the IOL designed to partially compensate the corneal SA including asphericity on its posterior surface is the better possible option, even in the presence of decentration or tilt.

EYE AND VISION (LONDON, ENGLAND) 2022; 9:45. [PMID: 36451233 PMCID: PMC9713962 DOI: 10.1186/s40662-022-00317-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Quick contrast sensitivity function (qCSF) method is an advanced quick method for contrast sensitivity function (CSF) evaluation. This study evaluated the contrast sensitivity (CS) of eyes undergoing cataract surgery with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and its tolerance to IOL tilt and IOL decentration using the qCSF method. METHODS Patients undergoing uneventful phacoemulsification and a trifocal IOL (Zeiss AT LISA tri 839MP, Carl Zeiss, Germany) or an extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) IOL (Tecnis Symfony ZXR00, Johnson & Johnsons, USA) implantation were included. Monocular contrast sensitivity was measured using the qCSF method at one month post-surgery. IOL tilt and decentration were measured using an optical aberrometer (OPD-Scan III, NIDEK, Japan). RESULTS Seventy-two patients/eyes with the 839MP IOL and 64 patients/eyes with the ZXR00 IOL were included. Area under the log CSF (AULCSF) and CS acuity did not differ significantly between the two groups. The ZXR00 IOL group showed better CS at 1 cpd (1.137 ± 0.164 vs. 1.030 ± 0.183 logCS) and 1.5 cpd (1.163 ± 0.163 vs. 1.071 ± 0.161 logCS), while the 839MP IOL group had better CS at 6 cpd (0.855 ± 0.187 vs. 0.735 ± 0.363 logCS). In the 839MP IOL group, all CSF metrics were negatively correlated with IOL tilt (all P < 0.05), while in the ZXR00 IOL group, the CS at 3 cpd had no significant correlation with IOL tilt (P > 0.05). Among myopic eyes, fewer CSF metrics were negatively correlated with IOL tilt in the ZXR00 IOL group than in the 839MP IOL group. No significant correlation was found between CSF metrics and IOL decentration. CONCLUSIONS The ZXR00 and the 839MP IOL groups presented comparable CSF. CS was negatively correlated with IOL tilt, instead of decentration in multifocal IOLs, particularly among myopic eyes. The ZXR00 IOL had better tolerance to IOL tilt in myopic eyes.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the changes in higher-order aberrations (HOAs) after wearing orthokeratology (OK) lenses in myopic patients. The study included 15 eyes from ten myopic patients, whose refractive error was myopia less than -4.5 diopters (D) and astigmatism less than 1.5 D. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were measured, and Zywave® aberrometry was performed at baseline and 1, 3, and 6 months following OK lens wear. The mean age was 11.5 years (range: 9-15 years). There was a significant improvement in UCVA (p ≤ 0.001) and a decrease in the spherical equivalent measured with auto-refraction at 6 months (p ≤ 0.001). Total HOAs significantly increased after OK lens wear (p ≤ 0.001), with spherical aberration increasing approximately 3.9-fold (p = 0.05). Spherical aberration demonstrated statistically significant positive correlations with the change in spherical equivalent at 3 and 6 months (p = 0.007 and 0.003, respectively). After wearing properly prescribed OK lens, all subjects had significantly improved UCVA and decreased myopic spherical equivalent, with increased total HOAs and positive spherical aberration at 1 month, and the changes were maintained at 6 months. Serially checked spherical aberration could evaluate the anti-myopia effect of the orthokeratology lens in children.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify risk factors associated with intraocular lens (IOL) decentration after uneventful phacoemulsification with IOL implantation. DESIGN A prospective cohort study METHODS: All patients underwent a general ophthalmologic examination. One month postoperatively, the magnitude and orientation of IOL decentration relative to the visual axis center were assessed using an OPD-Scan III aberrometer, and the vertical and horizontal decentration values were determined. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the IOL decentration and ocular biometric parameters. RESULTS In total, 143 eyes of 143 patients were enrolled. The mean decentration magnitude was 0.27±0.15 mm, and the decentration axis appeared at any orientation, with no orientation tendency. The horizontal and vertical decentration were -0.02±0.22 mm and 0.01±0.22 mm, respectively. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the white-to-white distance (WTW) and the magnitude of angle α were positively associated with the decentration magnitude (P<0.001, adj. R2=0.121), the horizontal angle κ and horizontal angle α were positively associated with the horizontal decentration (P<0.001, adj. R2=0.209), and the anterior chamber depth (ACD) and vertical angle κ were positively associated with the vertical decentration (P<0.001, adj. R2=0.152). CONCLUSIONS The IOL decentration magnitude was greater in patients with a larger WTW and a larger angle α, the horizontal decentration was greater in patients with a larger horizontal angle κ and a larger horizontal angle α, and the vertical decentration was greater in patients with a deeper ACD and a larger vertical angle κ. In these patients, premium IOLs should be implanted cautiously.

Abstract
We find that tilt and decentration of intraocular lens (IOL) commonly cause visual quality deterioration after cataract surgery. Multiple factors affect IOL tilt and decentration in the pre-, mid-, and post-operation phases. Moreover, the tilt and decentration of 1-piece IOL are less correlated with internal ocular HOAs than those of 3-piece IOL. Aspherical IOLs are more sensitive to decentration or tilt than spherical IOLs. Furthermore, the optical performance of toric IOLs with an accurate axis remains stable irrespective of tilt and decentration. The optical quality of asymmetric multifocal IOLs varies significantly after decentration and tilt in different directions. The image quality enhances or deteriorates in the direction of the decentered IOL. An extended depth of focus IOL can achieve good visual acuity in the distant, intermediate, and near range. Additionally, its tilt and decentration have less impact on the vision than bifocal and trifocal IOL. This is the first review that compares the effect of IOL tilt and decentration on image quality for various IOL designs. The result indicates that a deeper understanding of tilt and decentration of various IOLs can help achieve a better visual effect to visually improve refractive cataract surgery.

Evaluation of Intraocular Lens Tilt and Decentration in Congenital Ectopia Lentis by the Pentacam Scheimpflug System. J Ophthalmol 2022; 2022:7246730. [PMID: 35309109 PMCID: PMC8933096 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7246730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2021] [Revised: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to quantify the characteristics of the tilt and decentration of the IOL after trans-scleral suture fixation surgery in congenital ectopia lentis (CEL) patients. Methods The clinical characteristics of 70 CEL patients at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center in China were retrospectively analyzed. The tilt and decentration of intraocular lens (IOL) were measured by using a Pentacam and compared between different axial length (AL) subgroups. The correlation between IOL tilt, decentration, and ocular characteristics was investigated using Spearman's correlation analysis. Results The postoperative IOL position of CEL patients was mainly located nasally inferiorly. The average tilt of the IOL in CEL patients was less than 7° (for temporal: 2.21 ± 1.53°, for nasal: −1.84 ± 2.04°, for superior: 2.22 ± 2.18°, and for inferior: −1.70 ± 1.62°), and the average decentration of the IOL in CEL patients was larger than 0.4 mm (for temporal: 0.49 ± 0.38 mm, for nasal: −0.69 ± 0.46 mm, for superior: 0.72 ± 0.58 mm, and for inferior: −0.68 ± 0.54 mm). The decentration of CEL patients in the AL ≥ 26 subgroup was greater than those with AL < 24 mm and AL 24 to 26 mm subgroups (for superior: 0.72 ± 0.28 mm vs. 0.46 ± 0.25 mm and 0.48 ± 0.22 mm, all P < 0.05; for inferior: -0.94 ± 0.56 mm vs. −0.44 ± 0.26 mm and -0.44 ± 0.46 mm, all P < 0.05). IOL decentration was positively correlated with AL (for superior: r = 0.44, P=0.019; for inferior: r = 0.54, P=0.006). IOL tilt was positively correlated with AL on the superior side (r = 0.38, P=0.041). Conclusions The extent of IOL decentration after trans-scleral suture fixation was great in CEL patients, and the IOL decentration in CEL patients was significantly associated with AL.

Clinically Significant Intraocular Lens Decentration and Tilt in Highly Myopic Eyes: A Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Study. Am J Ophthalmol 2022; 235:46-55. [PMID: 34509430 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajo.2021.08.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2021] [Revised: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the occurrence and risk factors of clinically significant intraocular lens (IOL) decentration and tilt in highly myopic eyes using swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-AS-OCT). DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS This study included 334 participants (334 eyes) with high myopia, defined as axial length (AL) ≥26 mm, who underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation. Decentration and tilt of IOL were assessed by SS-AS-OCT. Clinically significant IOL decentration and tilt was defined as decentration ≥0.4 mm and tilt ≥7°. Routine preoperative and postoperative examinations included visual acuity, refraction, biometric measurement using IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec), and objective visual quality evaluated by OPD-Scan III (Nidek Technologies). RESULTS Among the 334 highly myopic participants, 71 (21.3%) had clinically significant IOL decentration, and 26 (7.78%) had clinically significant IOL tilt. The proportion of clinically significant IOL decentration (37.1% vs 14.0%, P < .001) and tilt (16.2% vs 3.90%, P < .001) in those with AL ≥30 mm was significantly higher than in those with AL <30 mm. The multivariable logistic regression model showed only AL ≥30 mm was associated with clinically significant IOL decentration (odds ratio, 1.65; P = .002). AL ≥30 mm (odds ratio, 2.09; P = .001) was an independent risk factor for clinically significant IOL tilt after adjusting for confounders. AL ≥30.3 mm could effectively predict IOL decentration ≥0.6 mm (area under the curve, 0.802). CONCLUSIONS Participants with AL >30 mm have a higher risk of clinically significant IOL decentration and tilt, thus caution should be taken to implant multifocal or toric IOL for these patients.

Saudi J Ophthalmol 2021; 35:21-28. [PMID: 34667928 PMCID: PMC8486037 DOI: 10.4103/1319-4534.325777] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2019] [Revised: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE: The aim of this work is to determine and compare the distribution and influence of higher-order aberrations (HOAs) both clinically and experimentally between different refractive errors. METHODS: Commercially available Shack–Hartmann aberrometer was employed to measure the HOA clinically in human eyes. Experimentally, HOA was measured in a model eye by simulating various refractive errors by constructing an aberrometer based on the same Shack Hartmann principle. One-way analyses of variance and simple regression were employed to analyze the distribution and influence of HOA among various refractive errors. RESULTS: A total of 100 eyes were clinically measured for aberrations, of which 35, 50, and 15 eyes were emmetropes, myopes, and hyperopes, respectively. Out of the total root mean square (RMS) value, the HOAs found in the human eyes were 23%, 7%, and 26% and in the model eye, it was 20%, 8%, and 10% between emmetropes, myopes, and hyperopes, respectively. The mean higher-order RMS was almost similar between the groups and among various refractive errors. There was no statistical significance between the individual Zernikes except for the coma in both human and model eyes. CONCLUSION: The mean HOA is similar amidst the different refractive errors. The presence of 23% HOA in emmetropes signifies that larger part of the human eye is capable of complying with HOA without compromising the image quality. This work signifies that HOA does not play an important role in image clarity for human eyes with regular refractive surface unlike irregular refractive surfaces.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the internal aberrations and optical quality after femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (CPCS). METHODS This study included patients who received FLACS or CPCS from January 2016 to July 2019. Postoperative examinations included wavefront measurements under pupil diameters of 3.0 mm and 5.0 mm, intraocular lens (IOL) decentration, visual acuity (VA), and refractive outcomes. Visual quality was measured with Strehl ratio and modulation transfer function (MTF). Subgroup analyses were conducted based on monofocal or multifocal-extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL. RESULTS The study consisted of 221 eyes (105 eyes in FLACS and 116 eyes in CPCS). With a pupil diameter of 5.0 mm, FLACS demonstrated a significantly lower root mean square of total internal aberration (P = 0.004), higher order aberrations (HOAs) (P = 0.034), tilt (P = 0.049), coma (P = 0.004), and spherical aberration (P = 0.014). IOL tilt was found to be positively correlated with total internal aberration (P < 0.001), HOAs (P < 0.001), and coma (P < 0.001). The FLACS group presented significantly smaller IOL decentration than the CPCS group (P < 0.001), but there were no significant differences in terms of VA and refractive outcomes between groups. In the multifocal-EDOF subgroup, Strehl ratio and MTF values were significantly higher in the femtosecond group with a 3.0-mm pupil. CONCLUSION FLACS induced significantly lower values of IOL tilt, decentration, and internal aberrations compared with the CPCS group with a pupil diameter of 5.0 mm, while no significant differences were found in the VA or optical quality over long-term observation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the effect of decentration on the quality of vision in two aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs): aspheric balance curve(ABC) design Vivinex iSert XY1(Hoya Surgical Opticals, Inc.) and posterior aspheric design AcrySof IQ SN60WF (Alcon Laboratories, Inc.). SETTING Advanced Eye Centre, PGIMER, Chandigarh, India. DESIGN Randomised Prospective Trial using Random number table. METHODS Eighty-five eyes were randomized to Group 1 (Vivinex XY1) and Group 2 (Acrysof IQ) with 40 and 45 eyes respectively. The HOA profile, Strehl's ratio, decentration of IOL from the visual axis (DVA) and the geometric axis (DGA), angle Alpha and Kappa were recorded on the iTrace aberrometer and contrast sensitivity was measured using the Functional Acuity Contrast Test at 12 weeks post-surgery. RESULTS The mean values of the Strehl's ratio (p=0.48) and the HOA's (p=0.12) of both IOLs were comparable. The HOA's gradually increased with increasing DVA for both lenses at 3, 4 and 5mm pupil sizes. On comparing the HOA's with the DGA a statistically insignificant positive correlation was observed. The Strehl's ratio did not deteriorate with increasing angle alpha in the Vivinex XY1 group, however worsened in the Acrysof IQ group. The contrast sensitivity was comparable in both the IOLs except at 1.5cpd under photopic conditions where Acrysof IQ was better. CONCLUSIONS Decentration of the lens is best measured with respect to the visual axis. In eyes with a large alpha, the ABC design induced lesser HOA's and maintained a better Strehl's ratio.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess rotational stability, axial stability, decentration, and tilt of the Rayner RAO800C single-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) (Rayner Intraocular Lenses Ltd) from end of surgery to 4 to 7 months postoperatively. METHODS Surgeries were performed at the Department of Ophthalmology at the Medical University of Vienna. A total of 130 eyes of 68 patients received an aspheric hydrophobic Rayner RAO0800C IOL. IOLs were randomly implanted to the 0 ± 10, 45 ± 10, 90 ± 10, or 135 ± 10 degree axis. Baseline measurement was performed with the patient still supine on the operating table. Axis alignment after 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month, and 4 months was evaluated by retroillumination pictures. Postoperative IOL decentration, tilt, and aqueous depth at 4 months were assessed using an anterior segment swept-source optical coherence tomography. RESULTS Absolute median IOL rotation from end of surgery to 4 months was 2.4 degrees (range: 0.0 to 85.0 degrees). Median IOL rotation from end of surgery to 1 hour, 1 hour to 1 week, 1 week to 1 month, and 1 month to 4 months was 1.6 (range: 0.0 to 86.2), 1.1 (range: 0.0 to 28.8), 0.6 (range: 0.0 to 5.2), and 0.7 (range: 0.0 to 2.6) degrees. Respective proportions of IOLs rotating more than 5, 10, and 20 degrees from end of surgery to 4 months were 23.9%, 11.0%, and 6.4%. Horizontal and vertical decentration at 4 months was -0.09 ± 0.14 and 0.09 ± 0.14 mm, respectively. Horizontal and vertical tilt at 4 months was -4.78 ± 1.36 and -1.58 ± 1.10 degrees, respectively. A posterior axial shift of 0.052 ± 0.055 mm was observed from 1 week to 4 months. CONCLUSIONS Although median IOL rotation appeared to be low, a significant proportion of IOLs rotated postoperatively. Decentration and tilt values were generally low. A minimal posterior optic shift was observed after 1 week. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(2):112-118.].

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the characteristics and factors associated with intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration after uneventful phacoemulsification with IOL implantation. SETTING Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS All patients underwent a general ophthalmologic examination and anterior segment photography. IOL tilt and decentration were measured with a second-generation anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Casia2). Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to assess the association between IOL tilt and decentration with ocular biometric and systemic parameters, and the visual acuity. RESULTS A total of 196 eyes of 196 patients were enrolled in this study. IOLs showed a mean tilt of 4.8 degrees toward the inferotemporal direction, and the mean decentration was 0.21 mm. Both eyes presented a mirror symmetry relationship. Twenty-two eyes (11.22%) had a tilt greater than 7 degrees, and 21 eyes (10.72%) had a decentration more than 0.4 mm. Multivariate regression analysis showed previous pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and short axial length (AL) were associated with greater IOL tilt (P = .014 and P < .001). In addition, long AL, thicker lens, and less capsulorhexis-IOL overlap were positively correlated with decentration (P < .001, P = .029, and P = .026). Corrected distance visual acuity did not directly correlate with IOL tilt and decentration (P = .417 and P = .550). CONCLUSIONS PPV history and short AL were associated with greater IOL tilt, whereas longer AL, thicker lens, and overlarge capsulorhexis contribute to greater decentration. Implantation of toric and multifocal IOLs in these patients should be cautious.

Abstract
Background To compare visual performance between the iris-fixated phakic intraocular len (pIOL) and implantable collamer len (ICL) to correct high myopia. Methods Twenty-four eyes underwent iris-fixated pIOL implantation and 24 eyes underwent ICL implantation. At the 6-month follow-up, the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) were compared between the iris-fixated pIOL and ICL groups. The objective scatter index (OSI), modulation transfer function (MTF) cutoff, and ocular aberrations were performed to evaluate postoperative visual quality between the two groups. Results No significant difference was found in UDVA, BCVA, and spherical equivalent between the iris-fixated pIOL and ICL groups (P > 0.05). Six months after surgery, the following values were significantly higher in the ICL group than in the iris-fixated pIOL group: MTF cutoff, strehl ratio and optical quality analysis system values at contrasts of 9 %, 20 %, and 100 % (P < 0.01). The OSI in the iris-fixated pIOL group was higher than in the ICL group 6 months after surgery (P < 0.01). All high-order aberrations were slightly more severe in the iris-fixated pIOL group than in the ICL group 6 months after surgery, although only trefoil (P = 0.023) differed significantly in this regard. Conclusions Both iris-fixated lenses and ICLs can provide good visual acuity. ICLs confer better visual performance in MTF-associated parameters and induce less intraocular light scattering than iris-fixated pIOLs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate stability and performance of a new monofocal anterior capsulotomy-fixated intraocular lens (IOL) (FEMTIS; Teleon Surgical B.V., Spankeren, Netherlands) after femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS). DESIGN Prospective, multicenter, interventional, noncomparative case series. METHODS FLACS with FEMTIS IOL was performed in 336 eyes of 183 cataract patients with fixation of the IOL to the anterior capsulotomy followed up for 12 months. Examination included uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), best-corrected visual acuity (CDVA), subjective refraction, IOL centration, posterior capsule opacification (PCO), and investigators' satisfaction questionnaire. RESULTS At 12 months, mean IOL rotation was 1.50 ± 1.76 degrees and decentration 0.14 ± 0.14 mm from baseline (day of surgery). Mean horizontal IOL tilt was 0.70 ± 0.60 degrees and vertical 1.15 ± 1.06 degrees relative to the baseline (crystalline lens). Mean distance between IOL and iris was 0.32 mm to 0.36 mm for all measured meridians. Mean UDVA was 0.12 ± 0.14 logMAR (range -0.20 to 0.54 logMAR), mean CDVA -0.01 ± 0.09 logMAR (range -0.30 to 0.20 logMAR). Mean spherical equivalent was 0.35 ± 0.53 diopter (D) and 98% of eyes (n = 235) were within ±1.0 D. Median PCO score was 1 with an Nd:YAG laser rate of 3.1% after 12 months. Most surgeons were very satisfied (median score: 1) with surgery and implanted IOL. CONCLUSIONS Implantation of FEMTIS IOL provided excellent visual and stable refractive outcomes. IOL decentration was very low compared to other published studies and showed an exceptional high in-the-bag stability over a 12-month period. This lens benefits from femtosecond laser capsulotomies. It can be positioned very predictably and offers an optimal platform for toric and multifocal IOL optics.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated visual outcomes and complications at 3 years post-implantation of a Cionni-modified capsular tension ring (MCTR) with an intraocular lens (IOL) in ectopia lentis patients ≤8 years old. DESIGN Prospective clinical cohort study. METHODS Included were 101 eyes from 57 patients <8 years of age, who underwent surgery for nontraumatic ectopia lentis between November 2015 and December 2016. Exclusion criteria were planned IOL fixation in the ciliary sulcus, severe intraoperative complications, and incomplete follow-up. All eyes received in-the-bag implantation of a posterior IOL and Cionni-MCTR. Posterior capsulectomy and anterior vitrectomy were performed through the pars plana in 23 eyes of children <5 years of age. Patients were examined at 1 day, and 1, 6, and 12 months, and at 2 and 3 years postoperatively. Outcome; measurements included best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), IOL centration, and posterior capsule opacification (PCO). RESULTS In all eyes, BCVA improved significantly after surgery, especially during the first 12 months (P < .05). Three years post-operatively, 44 eyes had BCVA 0.9 or better. Prophylactic Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was performed 3 months post-surgery in 24 eyes; 34 eyes underwent this; procedure 6 months post-surgery because of PCO. A second surgery was; warranted in 4 eyes because of severe IOL decentration and combined anterior capsule contraction. No severe postoperative complications, such as retinal detachment or endophthalmitis, occurred. CONCLUSIONS Implantation of in-the-bag IOL with Cionni MCTR is effective for visual rehabilitation in young children with ectopia lentis. A close follow-up of these patients is necessary to monitor IOL centration and stability.

Abstract
PURPOSE To numerically evaluate and compare the tolerance to misalignment and tilt of aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs) designed for three eyes: with standard cornea and with simulated corneas after myopic and hyperopic laser ablation surgery. METHODS Three aspheric IOLs of +20.00 diopter (D) with different spherical aberration (SA) ([Formula: see text]) values have been designed using a theoretical model eye. Drastic changes on the theoretical eye anterior corneal asphericity have been performed to simulate myopic and hyperopic refractive surgeries. The effect of IOL misalignment and tilt on the image quality has been evaluated using a commercial optical software design for the three eye models. Image quality was assessed from the modulation transfer function (MTF), root mean square (RMS) values of defocus, astigmatism, coma and spherical aberration ([Formula: see text]), and retinal images obtained from a visual simulator using an aleatory optotype of 0.00 LogMar visual acuity (VA). RESULTS IOL misalignment and tilt reduced MTF values in general, and increased wavefront aberrations errors. Aberration-free IOLs maintained best the MTF values when misalignments were applied, together with good on-axis optical quality. IOLs with negative SA ([Formula: see text]) correction decreased the MTF value under 0.43 for misalignments values higher than 0.50 mm with the three corneas. The effect of misalignment on RMS astigmatism and coma was correlated with the IOL SA ([Formula: see text]) and with the three corneas. CONCLUSIONS This theoretical study shows that the largest degradation in image quality arises for the IOL with the highest amount of spherical aberration ([Formula: see text]). Moreover, it has been found that the aspherical design has a more influential role in misalignment tolerance than in tilt tolerance.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare rotational stability and its influencing factors in 3 different widely used hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) from the end of surgery (EoS) to 4-7 months (6 months) in over 380 eyes. DESIGN Prospective interventional comparative clinical study. METHODS Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of Vienna. PATIENT POPULATION A total of 381 eyes of 199 patients with age-related cataract received an IOL Acrysof SN60WF, Tecnis ZCB00, or Envista MX60 in a consecutive order. INTERVENTION Implantation of an Acrysof, Tecnis, or Envista IOL randomized to the 0 ± 10, 45 ± 10, 90 ± 10, or 135 ± 10° axis in 1 or both eyes. Baseline measurement was performed with patients supine still on the operating table. Postoperative follow-ups were conducted after 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month, and 6 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Difference of absolute rotation from the EoS to 6 months. RESULTS Absolute rotations from the EoS to 6 months were 1.65 ± 2.1, 2.65 ± 4.1, and 3.18 ± 5.8° for the Acrysof, Tecnis, and Envista group, respectively. Rotational stability was statistically significantly superior in the Acrysof compared with the Envista group (P = .014), but not compared with the Tecnis group (P = .10). No significant difference was found between the Tecnis and Envista groups (P = .761). Maximum values of 15.8, 38.6, and 44.9° were observed for the Acrysof, Tecnis, and Envista group, respectively. CONCLUSION The Acrysof IOL showed the least amount of absolute rotation compared with the Tecnis and Envista IOLs. Outliers possibly requiring secondary intervention were observed in all groups. The amount of rotation was greatest during the first postoperative hour.

[PMID: 32937750 PMCID: PMC7559075 DOI: 10.3390/vision4030041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 08/17/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Tilt and decentration of intraocular lenses (IOL) may occur secondary to a complicated cataract surgery or following an uneventful phacoemulsification. Although up to 2–3° tilt and a 0.2–0.3 mm decentration are common and clinically unnoticed for any design of IOL, larger extent of tilt and decentration has a negative impact on the optical performance and subsequently, the patients’ satisfaction. This negative impact does not affect various types of IOLs equally. In this paper we review the methods of measuring IOL tilt and decentration and focus on the effect of IOL tilt and decentration on visual function, in particular visual acuity, dysphotopsia, and wavefront aberrations. Our review found that the methods to measure the IOL displacement have significantly evolved and the available studies have employed different methods in their measurement, while comparability of these methods is questionable. There has been no universal reference point and axis to measure the IOL displacement between different studies. A remarkably high variety and brands of IOLs are used in various studies and occasionally, opposite results are noticed when two different brands of a same design were compared against another IOL design in two studies. We conclude that <5° of inferotemporal tilt is common in both crystalline lenses and IOLs with a correlation between pre- and postoperative lens tilt. IOL tilt has been noticed more frequently with scleral fixated compared with in-the-bag IOLs. IOL decentration has a greater impact than tilt on reduction of visual acuity. There was no correlation between IOL tilt and decentration and dysphotopsia. The advantages of aspheric IOLs are lost when decentration is >0.5 mm. The effect of IOL displacement on visual function is more pronounced in aberration correcting IOLs compared to spherical and standard non-aberration correcting aspherical IOLs and in multifocal versus monofocal IOLs. Internal coma has been frequently associated with IOL tilt and decentration, and this increases with pupil size. There is no correlation between spherical aberration and IOL tilt or decentration. Although IOL tilt produces significant impact on visual outcome in toric IOLs, these lenses are more sensitive to rotation compared to tilt.

Abstract
Purpose The human eye exhibits large amounts (2.5 diopters) of longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA). Its impact on polychromatic image quality, however, has been shown experimentally and by computer modeling to be small or absent. We hypothesized that modest changes in pseudophakic LCA created by higher and lower Abbe number materials will have little or no impact on polychromatic image quality in pseudophakic eyes. Materials and Methods Using published chromatic and monochromatic aberration data from pseudophakic eyes and higher and lower Abbe number materials (37 and 55), we computed monochromatic point spread functions for 21 wavelengths across the visible spectrum. After weighting by either the RGB spectra of a liquid crystal display or by a flat white spectrum, they were weighted by the human spectral sensitivity function (Vλ) before being added to generate polychromatic PSFs. Results In the absence of monochromatic aberrations, the reduced LCA due to higher Abbe number intraocular lens (IOL) materials resulted in a reduction of 0.08 diopters in the mean defocus generated by LCA. At the retinal plane, the higher Abbe number pseudophakic model produced improvements in polychromatic modulation transfer functions (MTFs) similar to those generated by a 0.05 diopter reduction in spherical defocus. When monochromatic aberrations were added to make the model more representative of actual pseudophakic eyes, the differences in image quality became sub-threshold for human vision or disappeared completely. Conclusion The anticipated gains in polychromatic image quality from employing higher Abbe number IOL materials with reduced LCA do not materialize in plausible aberrated models of pseudophakic eyes.

Abstract
As cataract surgery has evolved, intraocular lens (IOL) complications are rare. The purpose of this review was to report the incidence, diagnosis, and management of IOL decentrations, uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema (UGH) syndrome, IOL opacifications, and refractive surprises. Literature review was performed by searching PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Controlled Trial Database and the reference lists of original studies as well as reviews. Intraocular lens decentrations and dislocations can appear at any time, particularly in patients with predisposing factors such as pseudoexfoliation, prior vitreoretinal surgery, or trauma. Recognizing when they require surgical intervention for UGH or to improve visual function is critical in limiting long-term sequela. Intraocular lens opacifications such as glistenings rarely require intervention, but others, such as subsurface nanoglistenings, calcifications, or discolorations, may require IOL exchange. Finally, despite our best efforts to enhance measurements and IOL calculations, refractive surprises still occur. Intraocular lens complications are uncommon with modern cataract surgery. A number of these complications require proper identification and care to optimize patient outcomes.

Abstract
Purpose: Zernike polynomials for describing ocular higher order aberrations are affected by pupil aperture. The current study aimed to validate Mahajan’s formula for scaling Zernike polynomials by pupil size. Methods: Higher order aberrations for 3 intraocular lens models (AcrySof IQ IOL SN60WF, Technis ZA9003, Adapt Advanced Optics) were measured using the Zywave aberrometer and a purpose-built physical model eye. Zernike coefficients were mathematically scaled from a 5 mm to a 3 mm pupil diameter (5:3 mm), from a 5 mm to a 2 mm pupil diameter (5:2 mm), and from a 3 mm to a 2 mm pupil diameter (3:2 mm). Agreement between the scaled coefficients and the measured coefficients at the same pupil aperture was assessed using the Bland–Altman method in R statistical software. Results: No statistically significant mean difference (MD) occurred between the scaled and measured Zernike coefficients for 21 of 23 analyses after Holm-Bonferroni correction (P > 0.05). Mean differences between the scaled and measured Zernike coefficients were clinically insignificant for all aberrations up to the fourth order, and within 0.10 μm. Oblique secondary astigmatism (Z−24) was significantly different in the 5:3 mm comparison (MD = - 0.04 μm, P < 0.01). Horizontal coma (Z13) was significantly different in the 3:2 mm comparison (MD = - 0.07 μm, P = 0.03). There were borderline statistical differences in both vertical (Z−13) and horizontal coma (Z13) in the 5:3 mm comparison (MD = 0.02 μm, - 0.09 μm, P = 0.05, 0.05, respectively). Conclusion: A formula for the scaling of higher order aberrations by pupil size is validated as accurate. Pupil scaling enables accurate comparison of individual higher order aberrations in clinical research for situations involving different pupil sizes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate and compare the effect of misalignment and tilt on the optical performance of different aspheric intraocular lens (IOL) designs. METHODS Three aspheric IOLs with a different quantity of spherical aberration (SA) have been designed and the effect of IOL misalignment and tilt on the imaging quality of an eye model has been numerically assessed using a commercial optical design software. The prototypes have been manufactured by lathe turning and tested in vitro using the same optical bench (PMTF, Lambda-X) that complies with International Organization for Standardization standard 11979-2 requirements. Image quality was evaluated from the modulation transfer functions (MTFs), through-focus modulation transfer functions (TF-MTFs), root mean square (RMS) values of defocus, astigmatism and coma, and images of the United States Air Force (USAF) target were taken. A comparison with the optical performance of spherical IOLs has also been performed. RESULTS Intraocular lens misalignment and tilt increased wavefront aberrations; the effect of misalignment on root mean square (RMS) astigmatism and coma was positively correlated with the spherical aberration of the IOL. Aberration-free IOLs showed the highest MTF for all misalignment values and for IOLs with negative SA correction the MTF decays below 0.43 when they are decentered 0.50 mm. CONCLUSIONS Aspherical IOLs are more sensitive than spherical IOLs to misalignment or tilt, depending on their SA correction. The optical degradation caused by IOL misalignment had a greater effect on IOL designs with a higher amount of negative spherical aberration. In contrast, the effect of tilt on the optical performance was less sensitive to the IOL design.

Abstract
A differential confocal self-collimation decentration measurement method (DCSDM) is proposed. It uses the differential confocal method to precisely identify the center and vertex positions of the tested lens surface, thereby obtaining the radius of curvature. Then, it uses the self-collimation light-path to detect the position of the reflected light during the rotation of the tested surface, thereby obtaining the center bias. Finally, it calculates the decentration. Theoretical analysis and experiments indicate that DCSDM achieves an accuracy of 0.069". Compared with existing methods, DCSDM significantly reduces the focusing error by using differential techniques, prevents multiple clamping errors by integrating the radius and center bias measurements in one system, and is a feasible method for decentration measurement.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of vitrectomy and air tamponade on aspheric intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration and postoperative internal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in combined cataract surgery and vitrectomy (phacovitrectomy). STUDY DESIGN Prospective comparative observational study. METHODS Forty-five eyes that underwent phacovitrectomy using aspheric IOLs and 18 eyes that only underwent cataract surgery also using aspheric IOLs were prospectively evaluated. The subjects were divided into three groups: phacovitrectomy without fluid-air exchange (F/Ax) or with F/Ax and cataract surgery alone (Groups A, B, and C, respectively) Surgery-induced changes in lens tilt and decentration and internal HOAs were compared between each pair of groups. Subgroup analysis was conducted for cases with largely tilted (> 7°) or decentered (> 0.40 mm) IOLs 1 month postoperatively. RESULTS Surgery-induced changes in lens tilt in Group B were significantly more pronounced than those in Group C at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively (P = 0.007, 0.009, and 0.043, respectively), while there was no significant difference in surgery-induced changes in lens decentration among the groups. IOLs in Group B were tilted and decentered toward the inferonasal direction. In contrast, there was no significant difference in internal HOAs among the groups at any postoperative visit. Only Group B included cases with largely decentered IOLs, and the internal total HOAs in these cases were significantly larger than those in the others (P = 0.015). CONCLUSION Although largely decentered IOLs were occasionally found in Group B, aspheric IOLs could be effectively used in phacovitrectomy.

Correlation and predictability of ocular aberrations and the visual outcome after quadrifocal intraocular lens implantation: a retrospective longitudinal study. BMC Ophthalmol 2019; 19:188.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the correlating and predicting factors of visual outcome after implantation of newly developed diffractive quadrifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Methods A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted. Patients who underwent diffractive quadrifocal IOL implantation with a follow-up period longer than six months and records of wavefront aberrometer within one week perioperatively were enrolled. Accordingly, a total of 73 eyes from 73 patients were included. The postoperative distance and near visual acuity, ocular aberrations and postoperative symptoms were collected. The correlation and predictability between ocular aberrations and the postoperative visual outcome were evaluated. Results The corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) one month postoperatively was significantly better than the preoperative status, and insignificant improvement was found six months postoperatively. Preoperative Tracey refraction spherical equivalent (TRSE), angle alpha, and spherical aberration (SA) were significantly correlated with postoperative CDVA and near corrected visual acuity (NCVA). For postoperative ocular aberrations, TRSE, angle alpha, and SA were significantly correlated with CDVA six months postoperatively and NCVA, while the trefoil, internal higher order aberration (HOA) and total HOA were associated with NCVA. Preoperative angle alpha could predict all postoperative visual performances, while postoperative TRSE and angle alpha could predict the CDVA six months postoperatively and NCVA. A large angle alpha is associated with visual disturbance and dissatisfaction. Conclusion The angle alpha preoperatively and postoperatively was correlated with the postoperative vision and could predict visual outcome in patients who had diffractive quadrifocal IOL implanted. Furthermore, the majority of ocular aberrations were also associated with certain postoperative vision.

Keratoconic eyes with stable corneal tomography could benefit more from custom intraocular lens design than normal eyes. Sci Rep 2019; 9:3479. [PMID: 30837552 PMCID: PMC6401116 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-39904-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2018] [Accepted: 01/31/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
We investigated whether eyes with keratoconic corneal tomography pattern could benefit more from aberration correction with custom intraocular lenses (IOLs) than normal cataractous eyes despite the effect of misalignment on the correction of aberrations. Custom IOLs (cIOLs) were calculated for twelve normal and twelve keratoconic eyes using personalized numerical ray tracing models. The Stiles-Crawford weighted root-mean-square spot-size (wRMS) at the virtual fovea was evaluated for cIOLs and aberration-neutral IOLs (nIOLs) in a simulated clinical study with 500 virtual IOL implantations per eye and per IOL. IOL misalignment (decentration, tilt, rotation) and pupillary ectopia (4.5 mm iris aperture) were varied upon each virtual implantation. The nIOLs achieved average wRMS of 16.4 ± 4.3 μm for normal, and 92.7 ± 34.4 μm for keratoconic eyes (mean ± standard deviation). The cIOLs reduced the average wRMS to 10.3 ± 5.8 μm for normal, and 28.5 ± 18.6 μm for keratoconic eyes. The cIOLs produced smaller wRMS than nIOLs in most virtual implantations (86.7% for normal and 99.4% for keratoconic eyes). IOL misalignment resulted in larger wRMS variations in the keratoconus group than in the normal group. Custom freeform IOL-optics-design may become a promising option for the correction of advanced aberrations in eyes with non-progressive keratoconic corneal tomography pattern.

Abstract
Purpose Evaluation of postoperative artificial iris prosthesis-related complications. Design Retrospective cohort study. Methods Fifty-one consecutive patients underwent pupillary reconstruction using an artificial iris implant made from silicone between 2011 and 2015. Quantity and quality of complications were subclassified into three groups including mild, moderate, and severe complications. Their management and the learning curve were evaluated. Results In total, 13 (25.5%) of 51 included artificial iris implantations showed unexpected events in various degrees: mild complications: recurrent bleeding (n=1, 2.0%), slight but stable iris deviation (n=1, 2.0%), capsular fibrosis (n=2, 3.9%); moderate complications: suture cutting through the residual iris (n=1, 2.0%), glaucoma (n=3, 5.9%), and corneal decompensation (n=3, 5.9%); severe complications: artificial iris suture loosening (n=2, 3.9%) and dislocation (n=3, 5.9%), synechiae (n=2, 3.9%), glaucoma (n=2, 3.9%), and corneal decompensation (n=5, 9.8%) with the need for surgery, cystoid macular edema (n=3, 5.9%) and retinal detachment (n=1, 2.0%). The complication rate decreased from 83.3% (5 of 6 implantations) in the first year to 13.3% (2 of 15 implantations) in the 4th year. Nineteen of 45 evaluated patients showed a significant gain in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from 1.09 ± 0.56 logMAR to 0.54 ± 0.48 logMAR (p < 0.001), and 13 of 45 eyes had a significant BCVA loss from 0.48 ± 0.39 logMAR to 0.93 ± 0.41 logMAR after surgery (p < 0.001). Conclusions The artificial iris is a feasible option in the treatment of iris defects with a wide spectrum of postoperative complications. The significant reduction of complications after twelve implantations implicates that the procedure is not to be recommended in low volume settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate rotation and its influencing factors of an aspheric one-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) Vivinex XY1 during 6 months after operation. METHODS In this institutional trial, 122 eyes of 66 patients were implanted with a non-toric aspheric IOL Vivinex XY1 (Hoya Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). IOL alignment was assessed at the end of surgery, 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month and 6 months after implantation. Confounding factors such as axial length, presence of anterior fibrosis and randomised implantation in four different intended axes (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°) were evaluated. Decentration and tilt were measured using a Purkinje metre. RESULTS Assessment of rotational stability was possible for 103 of 122 implanted IOLs 6 months after eye surgery. The median absolute rotation was 1.1° (range: 0°-5°). Rotation was significantly increased within the first hour after operation compared with later time-points (p<0.001). No correlation was found with axial length and rotation (Spearman's r=0.048, p=0.63). No significant difference was observed regarding different implantation axes (p=0.75). Rotation was not influenced by the presence of anterior fibrosis (p=0.98). CONCLUSION Assessing the true IOL position at the end of surgery is crucial for the evaluation of rotational stability of IOLs. No IOL rotation exceeding 5° could be detected 6 months after surgery.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the reliability of ocular aberration measurement in myopic children under scotopic conditions and to validate the mathematical Zernike pupil scaling-down technique. Methods Ocular aberrations of 45 myopic children were examined under scotopic conditions via iTrace aberrometer. The intra- and intersession repeatability was evaluated for both the measured values with the true pupil sizes and the estimated ones that were determined by scaling down the pupil sizes to the largest integer value across all measurements. Results The intra- and intersession difference of clinically measured aberration was generally insignificant, and the ICCs for each aberration component exhibited good to excellent reliability (ICCs > 0.4). Similar results were found for the estimated aberration using the scaling-down technique. Although the majority of the estimated Zernike components were comparable with the corresponding measured one, the estimated values of defocus, coma, and the corresponding total aberrations were found significantly smaller than the measured values (all P < 0.01). Conclusions The ocular aberration measurements in myopic children under the circumstances described are reliable. The scaling-down technique is a useful option for comparing the results obtained from different pupil sizes, but the estimated Zernike coefficients were not always comparable with the corresponding measured values.

Abstract
To investigate the impact of intraocular lens (IOL) decentration ≤±1 mm and IOL tilt ≤±10° on the fixation axis and spherical equivalent refraction (SE), 50 pseudo-phakic eyes were simulated using numerical ray-tracing. We computed the position of the object point whose image ends up at the virtual fovea for each scenario and estimated the corresponding change of fixation axis and SE. The eye turned opposite to the direction of IOL decentration or tilt to compensate for the associated prismatic effect (angle <1.2°). Decentration of the aspheric IOL resulted in a hyperopic shift (<0.57 D), and tilt in a myopic shift (<0.77 D).

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the tilt, decentration, and internal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) of sutured posterior-chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) in patients with open globe injuries. Methods 46 consecutive patients (47 eyes) who underwent transsclerally sutured IOL implantation were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. Nineteen eyes had a history of open globe injury. The tilt and decentration of the IOLs and the visual quality were measured 1 month after surgery. Results The horizontal tilt and decentration of the IOLs in the open-globe-injury group were significantly higher than those in the control group (both P < 0.05). In the open-globe-injury group, the horizontal decentration was significantly greater in the limbus-sclera-involved group (n = 11) than in the only-cornea-involved group (n = 8, P = 0.040). The internal coma, 3rd-order, and total HOA values at pupil sizes of 4 mm (P = 0.006) and 6 mm (P = 0.013) were significantly higher in the open-globe-injury group than in the controls. Consequently, the optical quality data for the modulation transfer function and the Strehl ratio (all P < 0.05) were significantly poorer in the open-globe-injury group. Conclusions Open globe injuries damage the structural integrity of the eyeball, resulting in more-misaligned sutured IOLs and poorer visual quality.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the effect of spherical aberration on optical quality in eyes with two different aspherical intraocular lenses. METHODS 120 eyes of 60 patients underwent phacoemulsification. In patients' eyes, an aberration-free IOL (Aspira-aA; Human Optics) or an aberration-correcting aspherical IOL (Tecnis ZCB00; Abott Medical Optics) was randomly implanted. After surgery, contrast sensitivity and wavefront measurements as well as tilt and decentration measurements were performed. RESULTS Contrast sensitivity was significantly higher in eyes with Aspira lens under mesopic conditions with 12 cycles per degree (CPD) and under photopic conditions with 18 CPD (p = 0.02). Wavefront measurements showed a higher total spherical aberration with a minimal pupil size of 4 mm in the Aspira group (0.05 ± 0.03) than in the Tecnis group (0.03 ± 0.02) (p = 0.001). Strehl ratio was higher in eyes with Tecnis (0.28 ± 0.17) with a minimal pupil size larger than 5 mm than that with Aspira (0.16 ± 0.14) (p = 0.04). In pupils with a minimum diameter of 4 mm spherical aberration had a significant effect on Strehl ratio, but not in pupils with a diameter less than 4 mm. CONCLUSIONS Optical quality was better in eyes with the aberration-correcting Tecnis IOL when pupils were large. In contrast, this could not be shown in eyes with pupils under 4 mm or larger. This trial is registered with Clinicaltrials.gov NCT03224728.

Abstract
PurposeIt is purported that caffeine, an autonomic stimulant, affects visual performance. This study sought to assess whether caffeine intake was associated with changes in pupil size and/or amplitude of accommodation.Patients and methodsA double-masked, crossover study was conducted in 50 healthy subjects of age range 19 to 25 years. Subjects were randomized to treatments such that subjects consumed either 250 mg caffeine drink or vehicle on separate days. Amplitude of accommodation was measured by the push-up technique, and pupil size using a millimeter ruler fixed to a slit lamp biomicroscope in dim illumination (5 lux). Amplitude of accommodation and pupil size were taken at baseline, and at 30, 60 and 90 min time points post treatment. Repeated measures one-way ANOVA and paired t-test were used in analyzing data.ResultsAmplitude of accommodation and pupil size after caffeine intake were significantly greater than vehicle (P<0.001) at each time point. Consumption of the caffeine beverage was associated with significant increases in amplitude of accommodation and pupil size with time (P<0.001). Amplitude of accommodation rose from 12.4 (±2.2 D) at baseline to 15.8(±2.6 D) at 90 min. Similarly, pupil size increased from 3.4 (±0.4 mm) at baseline to 4.5 (±0.72 mm) at 90 min. Consumption of vehicle was not associated with increase in amplitude of accommodation or pupil size with time.ConclusionPupil size and accommodation are affected after ingestion of caffeine. This study suggests caffeine may have some influence on visual functions.

Abstract
Background To compare the in-the-bag stability and visual function of single-piece intraocular lenses (IOLs) and three-piece IOLs. Methods A total of 65 patients with age-related cataracts (80 eyes) were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive in-the-bag implantation of either a single-piece IOL (40 eyes) or a three-piece IOL (40 eyes). Follow-up visits were conducted at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months postoperatively. Visual acuity, refraction and total aberration were examined. IOL position stability (including axial movement, decentration and tilt) was measured using a Scheimpflug imaging system. Results At the 3-month follow-up visit, single-piece IOLs did not exhibit significant axial movement (0.07 ± 0.30 mm, p = 0.13) compared with their axial position at 1 week postoperatively, whereas three-piece IOLs displayed forward axial movement of −0.22 ± 0.23 mm (p < 0.0001). The mean manifest spherical equivalence (SE) of eyes with single-piece IOL was 0.15 ± 0.18D, whereas in eyes with three-piece IOLs, the mean manifest SE was −0.34 ± 0.15D (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in IOL decentration, tilt, uncorrected visual acuity, best-corrected visual acuity or total spherical aberration between the two groups. Conclusions Three months after implantation, single-piece IOLs exhibit better axial stability and more stable refractive outcome than three-piece IOLs, but both IOLs perform equally well in terms of decentration, tilt, visual acuity and total aberration. Trial registration ClinicalTrial.gov, NCT02609997, 11/18/2015, retrospectively registered.
