[PMID: 38671195 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-024-03130-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to observe the tilt and decentration of multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) with optic capture in Berger space within 2 years after pediatric cataract surgery. METHODS This is a prospective observational study. The implantation of multifocal IOL (Tecnis ZMB00) with optic capture in Berger space was performed on 33 patients (48 eyes) with pediatric cataract at Qingdao Eye Hospital. Tilt and decentration of IOL was measured using Scheimpflug system (Pentacam) at 1 month and 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS All the multifocal IOLs were successfully implanted in Berger space with optic capture and no visually significant complications were detected during the follow-up. The mean tilt of IOLs was 2.779° ± 0.950° in the vertical plane and 2.399° ± 0.898° in the horizontal plane at 1 month postoperatively, and the mean length of the decentration was 0.207 ± 0.081 mm in vertical plane and 0.211 ± 0.090 mm in the horizontal plane. Compared with 1 month after surgery, the angle of tilt decreased by a mean of 0.192° and decentration increased by a mean of 0.014 mm at the vertical meridian at 2 years postoperatively (P = 0.37 and P = 0.27, respectively), meanwhile, tilt increased by 0.265° and decentration increased by 0.012 mm at the horizontal meridian (P = 0.11 and P = 0.22, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The follow-up results suggest the tilt and decentration of multifocal IOL implantation with optic capture in Berger space remain stable in an acceptable range within 2 years after cataract surgery in children above the age of 5. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Qingdao Eye Hospital, and registered on Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR identifier: 1900023155).

KOREAN JOURNAL OF OPHTHALMOLOGY 2024:kjo.2023.0140. [PMID: 38644651 DOI: 10.3341/kjo.2023.0140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the clinical outcomes of new hydrophobic trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in the Korean population. Methods This prospective, multicenter, and observational study evaluated the clinical outcomes of eighty eyes of 40 patients with age-related cataract underwent cataract surgery using CNWT (Clareon PanOptix). Assessment included monocular and binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA at 60cm), near visual acuity (UNVA at 40cm and 33cm), uncorrected defocus curves, questionnaires evaluating photic phenomena, spectacle independence and spectacle free satisfaction. Results At 3-month postoperatively, mean uncorrected binocular visual acuities were 0.04, 0.04, 0.03 logMAR at far, intermediate, and near distances respectively. All patients achieved uncorrected binocular VAs of 0.2 logMAR or better. Monocular and binocular defocus curve indicated a mean VA of 0.2 logMAR or better at the defocus range of +1.0 D to - 3.0D (100 cm to 33 cm) and +1.0 D to - 3.5 D (100 cm to 28 cm). High spectacle independence was observed at all distances, with 37.5% patients reporting photic phenomena. Conclusions The Clareon PanOptix IOL has shown positive clinical outcomes, providing a viable option for cataract surgery. These lenses effectively address patients' visual needs, especially in intermediate and near distance tasks, reducing dependence on glasses.

Application of Femtosecond Laser + Piggyback Multifocal Intraocular Lens Implantation in Patients with Super-High Myopia Complicated with Cataract. Semin Ophthalmol 2024; 39:217-222. [PMID: 37997000 DOI: 10.1080/08820538.2023.2275618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical effect of piggyback multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in treating patients with high myopia complicated with cataract. METHODS This was a prospective controlled study. We compared 32 eyes of 32 patients who underwent femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with piggyback IOL implantation (two IOLs were implanted into the capsule) with 32 eyes of 32 patients who also underwent the same surgery (one IOL implanted into the capsule) due to high myopia complicated with cataract at the Wuhan Aier Eye Expert Hospital between January 2019 and October 2020. All patients were followed up for three months after surgery. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), best-corrected distance visual acuity, distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA), distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA), postoperative spectacle independence, postoperative visual interference, equivalent spherical lens, defocus curve, and IOL tilt and eccentricity were evaluated. RESULTS Three months after surgery, the patients' UCIVA, UCNVA, DCIVA, and DCNVA were 0.49 ± 0.07, 0.38 ± 0.15, 0.47 ± 0.09, and 0.36 ± 0.12, respectively, in the research group and 0.56 ± 0.18, 0.72 ± 0.22, 0.55 ± 0.13, and 0.69 ± 0.15, respectively, in the control group; the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P < .05). The spectacle independence rate was higher in the research group (93%) than in the control group (13%). The overall satisfaction regarding postoperative visual quality was also higher in the research group than in the control group. The absolute mean value of the spherical equivalents was 0.48 ± 0.28 D in the research group and 0.62 ± 0.33 D in the control group; the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < .05). CONCLUSION Piggyback multifocal IOL implantation can expand the multifocal IOL application range, and satisfy the desire of patients with high myopia complicated with cataract to see both near and far.

Phacoemulsification with implantation of a trifocal intraocular lens in eyes with asteroid hyalosis and synchysis scintillans. J Fr Ophtalmol 2024; 47:104105. [PMID: 38428321 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfo.2024.104105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the visual outcomes in both eyes of patients who undergo phacoemulsification and trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and have asteroid hyalosis (AH) or synchysis scintillans (SS) in only one eye. METHODS A retrospective comparative case series was performed. We evaluated uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), predictability, safety, efficacy, and satisfaction after implantation of the same model of trifocal IOL in both eyes (PhysIOL FineVision Pod-F and Micro-F and Rayner RayOne Trifocal). RESULTS A total of 164 eyes of 82 patients (41 females, 50%) met the inclusion criteria. There were no statistically significant differences in sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent, UDVA, UIVA, or UNVA between the groups. Postoperative CDVA was slightly better in the control group (logMAR 0.03) than in the AH/SS group (logMAR 0.04) (P: 0.014). There were no statistically significant differences in predictability, safety index, or efficacy index between the groups. Overall subjective satisfaction was good (98.2%). CONCLUSIONS Visual outcomes and satisfaction are good after implantation of trifocal IOLs in eyes with AH or SS. Therefore, trifocal IOLs should not be ruled out in these patients when no other vitreoretinal disorder is present.

Chord mu and chord alpha as postoperative predictors in multifocal intraocular lens implantation. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2024; 262:367-380. [PMID: 37278907 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-023-06098-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE With the aging population, the prevalence of presbyopia and the popularity of multifocal intraocular lenses is also growing worldwide. Unfortunately, in some cases, they are still associated with postoperative visual disturbances. Recent literature started to evaluate angle kappa- and angle alpha-derived metrics of chord mu and chord alpha as possible predictive values for visual outcomes after multifocal intraocular lens implantation but the published results are inconsistent between studies. Thus, this article aims to review the role of chord mu and chord alpha as postoperative predictors after multifocal intraocular lens implantation and lay the foundation for further research. METHODS Relevant articles were identified using the following keywords: "presbyopia," "multifocal intraocular lens," "angle kappa," "angle alpha," "Chord mu," and "Chord alpha" up to June 2022. An attempt was made to present the majority of publications that addressed the topic. CONCLUSIONS Chord mu and chord alpha have a predictive role on the outcomes after multifocal intraocular lens implantation but to a different extent. Cataract surgeons should take them into consideration and avoid implanting a multifocal intraocular lens for patients with speculated critical values of chord mu and alpha above 0.5-0.6 mm, depending on the device used for measurement and the multifocal intraocular lens implanted. Currently, chord alpha seems to be a more stable, more widely applicable, and reliable determinant in predicting postoperative outcomes and in patient selection prior to multifocal intraocular lens implantation when compared to chord mu. To draw conclusions on the topic, a controlled study is needed.

Retinal detachment after refractive lens exchange: A narrative review. ARCHIVOS DE LA SOCIEDAD ESPANOLA DE OFTALMOLOGIA 2023; 98:507-520. [PMID: 37364678 DOI: 10.1016/j.oftale.2023.06.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
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.

Objective cataract grading methods and expected contrast sensitivity reestablishment with multifocal intraocular lenses. Int Ophthalmol 2023; 43:2825-2832. [PMID: 36871115 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-023-02680-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 02/25/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the cut-off points for age and metrics provided by cataract grading objective systems for which a reestablishment in contrast sensitivity (CS) is expected after multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) implantation. METHODS One hundred seven subjects were included in this retrospective analysis carried out during the screening for presbyopia and cataract surgery. Monocular distance corrected contrast sensitivity defocus curve (CSDC) and visual acuity were measured, and crystalline lens sclerosis was graded with three objective metrics: Ocular Scatter Index (OSI), Dysfunctional Lens Index (DLI) and Pentacam Nucleus Staging (PNS). A CS value of 0.8 logCS at far distance, following published literature on this matter, was selected to compute the cut-off that maximized the detection of eyes exceeding this value at the preoperative screening, either for age or objective metrics. RESULTS The CDCS showed a stronger correlation than CDVA with objective grading methods, whereas all objective metrics were significantly correlated between them (p < 0.05). The cut-offs for age, OSI, DLI and PNS were ≤ 62, ≤ 1.25, ≥ 7.67 and ≤ 1, respectively. The OSI provided the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (0.85) followed by the age (0.84), DLI (0.74) and PNS (0.63). CONCLUSIONS Surgeons conducting clear lens exchange should communicate the possible distance CS loss after surgery with MIOL implantation according to the previous described cut-offs points. Age in combination with any cataract grading objective system is recommended to detect possible inconsistencies.

Spatio-chromatic vision with multifocal diffractive intraocular lens. EYE AND VISION (LONDON, ENGLAND) 2023; 10:32. [PMID: 37525263 PMCID: PMC10391998 DOI: 10.1186/s40662-023-00350-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to detect alterations in the spatio-chromatic pseudophakic vision produced by multifocal diffractive intraocular lenses (IOLs) and provides a physical interpretation. METHODS In vitro characterization of the imaging performance of two diffractive IOLs: AT LISA Tri (Zeiss) and FineVision (PhysIOL) in on-bench model eye illuminated with red (R, 625 nm), green (G, 530 nm) and blue (B, 455 nm) lights. We used the metrics: energy efficiency (EE), area under the modulation transfer function, longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA), and halo intensity. Through-focus (TF) analysis and calculation of the expected defocus curve under white (W) daylight were included. In vivo visual acuity (VA) of 50 pseudophakics (60 eyes) was assessed under W, R, G, B lights at far and near. Two clinical experiments evaluated LCA and R, G, B TF-EE effects on pseudophakic vision and their relative importance. RESULTS Clinical mean VA values under W light agreed with the predicted values at far and near for both IOLs. LCA measurements and R, G, B TF-EE curves were consistent with their lens design based on the 0th and 1st diffraction orders operative for far and near vision, respectively. LCA effects were compensated at near but noticed at far (- 0.75 D under B light). We detected strong asymmetry in visual resolution depending on the object distance and the illuminating wavelength-red predominance at far, blue predominance at near-in consistency with the TF-EE measurements. CONCLUSIONS Diffractive multifocal IOL designs produce asymmetries in the spatio-chromatic vision of pseudophakics beyond the alterations strictly due to LCA. VA asymmetry for far/near object distance under R and B illumination is clinically detectable in subjects implanted with IOLs with 0th and 1st diffraction orders for far and near vision, respectively. Such VA asymmetry cannot be explained solely from the influence of defocus, as would be derived from a chromatic difference of power, but mainly from the wavelength dependence of the EE.

Implantation of diffractive extended depth-of-focus intraocular lenses in normal tension glaucoma eyes: A case series. Am J Ophthalmol Case Rep 2022; 29:101792. [PMID: 36632337 PMCID: PMC9826872 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajoc.2022.101792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2022] [Revised: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Implantation of presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) has not been advised for glaucomatous eyes because of the risk of decreased contrast sensitivity with progress of glaucoma. Extended depth-of-focus (EDF) IOLs have been reported to provide comparable postoperative visual function and influence on the visual field to monofocal IOLs. Methods This case series was a retrospective medical record review of 16 eyes of 10 patients who had normal tension glaucoma (NTG) with no central visual field defects and underwent cataract surgery with implantation of diffractive EDF IOLs. At 3 months postoperatively, distance-corrected visual acuities (DCVAs) at distances of 5, 1, and 0.5 m and photopic contrast sensitivity were examined. Automated perimetry using the 30-2 Swedish interactive threshold algorithm was also performed, and the mean variance (MD) values, mean deviation values at the central four points (central MD), and foveal threshold were recorded. Results The mean age of the patients (5 men, 5 women) was 66.5 years. Over 80% of eyes obtained DCVAs of 20/20, 20/20, and 20/25 at 5 m, 1 m, and 0.5 m, respectively. Whereas 5 of 16 eyes were categorized as severe by the Hodapp-Parrish-Anderson classification, postoperative contrast sensitivity was within the normal range, except for 4 eyes at 18 cycles per degree. Conclusions and importance In this case series, the postoperative visual functions of NTG patients with EDF IOLs were almost comparable to those of normal eyes with the same IOLs, which demonstrated that the use of EDF IOLs for controlled NTG eyes would be permissible. While careful patient selection and follow-up for NTG progress are important, further investigations are necessary for confirming the safety and exploring the selection criteria.

Abstract
Background To assess and compare the efficacy, safety, accuracy, predictability and visual quality of a diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) and a refractive rotationally asymmetric bifocal IOL in eyes with axial myopia. Methods This prospective cohort study enrolled patients with implantation of the diffractive trifocal IOL or the refractive bifocal IOL. Eyes were divided into four groups according to the IOL implanted and axial length. Manifest refraction, uncorrected and corrected visual acuity at far, intermediate and near distances, prediction error of spherical equivalent (SE), contrast sensitivity and aberrations were evaluated three months after surgery. Results In total, 80 eyes of 80 patients were included: 20 eyes in each group. Three months postoperatively, the corrected distance visual acuity of two trifocal groups were significantly better than the axial myopia bifocal group (P = 0.007 and 0.043). There was no significant difference of postoperative SE (P = 0.478), but the SE predictability of the trifocal IOL was better, whether in axial myopia groups (P = 0.015) or in control groups (P = 0.027). The contrast sensitivity was similar among four groups. The total aberration, higher order aberration and trefoil aberration of bifocal groups were significantly higher (all P < 0.001). Conclusions The diffractive trifocal IOL and the refractive bifocal IOL both provided good efficacy, accuracy, predictability and safety for eyes with axial myopia. By contrast, the trifocal IOL had a better performance in corrected distance visual acuity and visual quality. Trial registration The study was retrospectively registered and posted on clinicaltrials.gov at 12/02/2020 (NCT04265846).

Abstract
Background We investigate the performance of new hydrophobic diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (IOL) with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and compare their optical quality, contrast sensitivity, and subjective photic phenomena. Methods Medical records of patients who underwent routine simple cataract surgery and insertion of an existing multifocal IOL (TFNT, TF group) or a new multifocal IOL (CNWT, CN group) were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical data was collected 2 months postoperatively and included optical quality analysis system (OQAS) indices, contrast sensitivity, and subjective degrees of photic phenomena. Results One hundred thirty-five eyes of 135 patients were included (CN group, 71; TF group, 64). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the visual acuity and defocus curve. The indices of OQAS did not show a significant difference between groups. Contrast sensitivity was significantly better in the CN group at all degrees, including the area under the log contrast sensitivity function (p = 0.01). The subjective photic phenomena survey showed better results for the CN group, with the proportion of patients reporting no photic phenomena as 9.9% and 3.1% in the CN and TF groups, respectively. The proportion of patients who reported severe photic phenomena was 11.3% in the CN group and 25.0% in the TF group. Although the follow-up period was only 2 months, glistening, surface scattering, and posterior capsule opacity were not observed in any patient. Conclusions The new multifocal IOL with HEMA is safe, and provides stable visual acuity as well as superior contrast sensitivity and lower subjective photic phenomena, over the prior IOL.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare binocular static visual acuity (SVA), stereopsis, contrast sensitivity (CS) and dynamic visual acuity (DVA) of 5 combinations of bifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs), trifocal IOLs and extended-depth-of-focus (EDOF) IOLs in age-related cataract patients. METHODS Two hundred and ninety-two eyes of 146 patients who underwent cataract surgery in the ophthalmology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were involved. Subgroups included group MM (33patients, bilaterally bifocal IOL, ZMB00), group TT (31patients, bilaterally trifocal IOL, AT LISA tri839MP), group XX (34patients, bilaterally EDOF IOL, ZXR00), group MX (25patients, bifocal IOL, ZMB00 + EDOF IOL, ZXR00) and group TX (23patients, trifocal IOL, AT LISA tri839MP + EDOF IOL, ZXR00). The uncorrected SVAs (UDVA, UIVA and UNVA), uncorrected DVAs (UDDVA, UIDVA and UNDVA), near and distance stereopsis, and CS were assessed 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS Subgroups of TT, XX, MX and TX showed better UIVA than MM (bP = 0.039, 0.021, 0.035 and 0.037, respectively). MX showed better UNVA than MM and TX (bP = 0.031 and 0.013, respectively). MX group had the optimal outcomes of both near and distance stereopsis. In the UDDVA, XX group and MX group showed better outcomes than TX group at 24 fps (frames per second) (bP = 0.019 and 0.023, respectively). XX group and MX group showed optimal outcomes at all speeds of UIDVA (P = 0.001, 0.005, 0.003 and 0.005, respectively). As the speed increased, the XX group and the MX group showed better UNDVA than the MM group and the TT group (P = 0.019, 0.002 and 0.003, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Mix-and-match implantation of bifocal IOLs and EDOF IOLs provides excellent and stable binocular visual outcomes including SVA, stereopsis and DVA in distant and near distances.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical outcomes of extended depth-of-focus (EDoF) AcrySof® Vivity® intraocular lens in eyes with low-grade epiretinal membrane (ERM). METHODS Forty-five eyes with low-grade ERM and history of Vivity implantation were compared with 50 age-matched controls with Vivity implantation and no ERM. Eyes with ERM showing widening of the outer nuclear layer and loss of the foveal depression, but no ectopic inner foveal layer or outer retinal defect were eligible. Corrected and uncorrected distant visual acuity (CDVA and UDVA), uncorrected intermediate and near visual acuity (UIVA and UNVA), contrast sensitivity detected by area under the log contrast sensitivity function (AULCSF), Strehl ratio, area ratio, and occurrence of dysphotopsia were compared between groups. RESULTS UDVA and CDVA were similar between groups (UDVA: 0.01 ± 0.05 vs 0.03 ± 0.06, P = 0.154; CDVA: 0.00 ± 0.00 vs 0.00 ± 0.02, P = 0.125). UIVA and mesopic AULCSF were significantly worse in eyes with ERM compared to those with no ERM (UIVA: 0.09 ± 0.09 vs 0.14 ± 0.10, P = 0.028; mesopic AULCSF: 1.26 ± 0.15 vs 1.17 ± 0.10, P = 0.013). The occurrence of dysphotopsia was similar in both groups (glare: P = 0.465; halo: P = 0.218; starburst: P = 0.457). DISCUSSION Eyes with low-grade ERM showed comparable outcomes to eyes without ERM after Vivity IOL implantation. Implantation of this newly developed EDoF IOL with low addition can be of benefit to eyes with low-grade, reversible ERM that is limited to the inner retina.

[PMID: 34674967 PMCID: PMC9237585 DOI: 10.1016/j.optom.2021.05.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2020] [Revised: 01/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess visual results (including the Lapid-Kushlin defocus coefficient), and satisfaction, following the implantation of PanOptix® a trifocal intraocular lens. METHODS Observational, retrospective cohort study. 130 eyes of 65 subjects with bilateral implantation were included. Binocular uncorrected visual acuities [distance (Binocular UDVA), intermediate (Binocular UIVA) and near (Binocular UNVA)] were measured. Also, the manifest refraction, binocular defocus curve and binocular contrast sensitivity were determined. The Lapid-Kushlin defocus coefficient, a new single numerical parameter based on the area under the curve of the defocus curve, was calculated. The validated Spanish CATQUEST-9SF satisfaction survey was applied. RESULTS Postoperative visual acuity ranges were: binocular UDVA 0.18 to 0.0 LogMAR, binocular UIVA 0.30 to 0.0 LogMAR and Binocular UNVA 0.18 to 0.0 LogMAR. The levels of contrast sensitivity both in bright light conditions (with and without glare) and low light conditions with glare, remained within the limits of normality. Under scotopic conditions without glare values below normality were found at lower spatial frequencies. The binocular defocus curve showed a plateau without a clearly evident peak. The Lapid-Kushlin defocus coefficient was 0.199. Two patients (3.1%) needed glasses after the procedure for near and intermediate vision. No patient manifested great visual difficulties or was dissatisfied with the results. CONCLUSIONS The trifocal platform showed very good results in this series of patients. 96.9% of the patients achieved independence of the glasses and expressed a high degree of satisfaction. The Lapid-Kushlin defocus coefficient was better than those calculated from literature, for other multifocal intraocular lenses.

The effects of premium intraocular lenses on presbyopia treatments. ADVANCES IN OPHTHALMOLOGY PRACTICE AND RESEARCH 2022; 2:100042. [PMID: 37846220 PMCID: PMC10577869 DOI: 10.1016/j.aopr.2022.100042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
Background Presbyopia has become a global disease affecting the world's aging population. Among various treatments, cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation have become the most popular and common methods of presbyopia correction. During the twentieth century, IOLs have underwent significant innovation and advancements to meet the patients' high demands for functional vision at all distances. Main Text To meet the increasing needs for excellent near and intermediate vision for daily activities, some premium IOLs with more than one focus have been developed, for example, the refractive MfIOLs, diffractive MfIOLs, extended depth of field (EDOF) IOLs, and accommodating IOLs (AIOLs) were introduced to meet this need. In addition, the add-on MfIOLs have been explored as promising supplementary IOLs for pseudophakic presbyopia. When selecting the MfIOLs, the IOLs' features, patients' characteristics, preoperative eye conditions, and treatment expectations should be considered. Conclusions In this review, we focus on the multifocal IOLs (MfIOLs) commonly used for presbyopia correction and systematically summarized their optical designs and clinical outcomes. More evidence-based studies are required to provide guidelines for MfIOL selection, provide maximum visual benefits, and develop personalized visual solutions in the future.

Binocular visual function after unilateral versus bilateral implantation of segmented refractive multifocal intraocular lenses: a pilot study. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2021; 260:1205-1213. [PMID: 34825956 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-021-05496-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2021] [Revised: 11/07/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate binocular visual function after unilateral and bilateral implantation of segmented refractive multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs). METHODS This prospective comparative pilot study included patients who underwent SBL-3 (Lenstec; + 3.00 D) implantation at Peking University Third Hospital. Patients were divided into two groups (monocular or binocular surgery). Thirty-two patients with emmetropic presbyopic contralateral eyes and 49 patients with bilateral SBL-3 implantation within a week between eyes were included in the unilateral SBL-3 and bilateral groups, respectively. At 3-month follow-up, the main outcomes were binocular uncorrected distant, intermediate, and near visual acuity (UDVA, UIVA, and UNVA). Secondary outcomes included binocular best-corrected visual acuity at all distances, defocus curve, contrast sensitivity, photic phenomena, spectacle independence, patient satisfaction, and National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ-25) score. The essential perceptual phenomena constituting binocular vision, simultaneous perception, fusion, and stereopsis were also evaluated. RESULTS Both groups showed similar binocular UDVA and UIVA, but UNVA was significantly better in the bilateral group (0.07 ± 0.07 versus 0.12 ± 0.07, P = 0.008). Better binocular defocus curve at intermediate to near focal points, higher percentage of spectacle independence at near distance, and NEI-VFQ-25 near activity scores were observed in the bilateral group. No significant differences in contrast sensitivity, photic phenomena, overall satisfaction, other NEI-VFQ-25 subscales, fusional amplitude, and stereoacuity were found between groups. CONCLUSION Unilateral implantation of segmented refractive MIOL provided desirable distant visual acuity and high patient satisfaction, but inferior intermediate and near visual outcomes compared with bilateral implantation.

Comparison of Visual Performance and Patient Satisfaction After Multifocal Intraocular Lens Implantation and During Multifocal Contact Lens Wear After Monofocal Intraocular Lens Implantation: A Pilot Study. Ophthalmol Ther 2021; 10:1119-1128. [PMID: 34705259 PMCID: PMC8589890 DOI: 10.1007/s40123-021-00414-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To compare the visual performance and patient satisfaction in multifocal intraocular lens (IOL)-implanted eyes and multifocal contact lens (CL)-wearing eyes undergoing monofocal IOL implantation. Methods We retrospectively assessed visual acuity at all distances (0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, and 5 m), contrast sensitivity function, patient satisfaction score, and the rate of spectacle independence in the multifocal IOL and multifocal CL groups. Results Binocular visual acuity at 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, and 5 m was 0.05 ± 0.11, − 0.02 ± 0.09, − 0.02 ± 0.09, − 0.02 ± 0.09, and − 0.04 ± 0.07, respectively, in the multifocal IOL group and 0.25 ± 0.13, 0.04 ± 0.10, 0.01 ± 0.09, − 0.01 ± 0.07, and 0.00 ± 0.08, respectively, in the multifocal CL group. We found significant differences in visual acuity at all distances. The area under the log contrast sensitivity function was 1.32 ± 0.14 and 1.33 ± 0.16 in the multifocal IOL and CL groups, respectively (p = 0.444). The patient satisfaction score for overall vision was 80.2 ± 20.6 and 82.9 ± 10.5 (p = 0.889), and the rate of spectacle independence was 23.4% and 41.7% in the multifocal IOL and CL groups, respectively (p = 0.277). Conclusions According to our experience, both multifocal IOLs and CLs provided good near-to-distance binocular vision and subsequent high patient satisfaction in daily activities with acceptable contrast sensitivity, suggesting their viability for presbyopic correction in elderly subjects.

Distribution of preoperative angle alpha and angle kappa values in patients undergoing multifocal refractive lens surgery based on a positive contact lens test. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2021; 260:621-628. [PMID: 34581851 PMCID: PMC8786761 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-021-05403-w] [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: 03/24/2021] [Revised: 07/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To assess the preoperative objective angle alpha and angle kappa measurements of patients deciding to undergo multifocal refractive lens surgery based on a subjective positive multifocal contact lens test (MCLT). Methods Retrospective, consecutive case series. Alpha and kappa angles were measured using the iTrace aberrometer. All patients also performed a 1-week MCLT. Only patients with a positive MCLT underwent surgery. Visual outcome (UCVA) was obtained in the 1-year follow-up. We assessed the preoperative distribution of angle values within MCLT positive and negative patient groups. Results Two hundred seventeen eyes (111 patients) were included. Mean age was 56.4 years (SD 5.6) and 46.9% were female. In 71 eyes (38 patients), MCLT was positive. Of them, 12 eyes (17%) had an angle alpha and angle kappa ≥ 0.5mm. Of 146 eyes (73 patients) who refrained from surgery due to a negative MCLT, 71 eyes (48.6%) had both angles small (<0.5mm). In the 1-year follow-up, UCVA improved by 0.68 logMAR (SD 0.51; p<0.001) from baseline. Eyes with both small angle alpha and kappa sizes improved by 0.78 logMAR (SD 0.56), as did eyes with high (≥0.5mm) angle sizes (0.82 logMAR (SD 0.53). UCVA of eyes (n=24) with high alpha but low kappa sizes improved less (−0.31 logMAR (SD 0.13; p=0.019)). Conclusion Four out of five patients with a positive MCLT also had correspondingly small angle values. One-half of patients with low preoperative angle values refrained from surgery due to a negative MCLT result. One-year visual acuity improvement was substantial and independent from angle sizes.

Influence of mild non-foveal involving epiretinal membrane on visual quality in eyes with multifocal intraocular lens implantation. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2021; 259:2723-2730. [PMID: 33963918 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-021-05225-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2021] [Revised: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the influence of mild non-foveal involving epiretinal membrane (ERM) on visual outcome in eyes with multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) implantation. METHODS Patients with history of MIOL implantation were screened for the presence of ERM using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at postoperative 6 months. Ninety-one eyes with mild non-foveal involving ERM and history of MIOL implantation were compared with 83 age-matched controls without ERM and history of MIOL implantation. The visual acuity (corrected and uncorrected) and visual quality (contrast sensitivity, Strehl ratio, area ratio, and higher-order aberrations; HOAs) of the eyes with mild non-foveal involving ERM were compared with the data of the age-matched control group. RESULTS There was no difference in visual acuity between the groups at baseline and postoperative 6 months. The mild non-foveal involving ERM group showed significantly low contrast sensitivity at a visual angle of 4.0°, 2.5°, 1.0°, and 0.64° under scotopic conditions (P = .048, P = .025, P = .003, and P = .02, respectively) and 4.0°, 1.0°, and 0.64° under photopic conditions (P = .028, P = .002, and P = .001, respectively). The mean area ratio of the mild non-foveal involving ERM group was 45.13 ± 10.93, which was significantly lower than that of the control group, which measured 50.34 ± 12.66 (P = .044). CONCLUSION A mild non-foveal involving ERM has no effect on visual acuity, but it reduces visual quality in eyes with MIOL implantation. A thorough screening using SD-OCT is warranted for this condition when considering MIOL implantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the visual and refractive outcomes of bifocal toric and trifocal toric intraocular lenses (IOL) in patients with moderate to high myopia at 12 months after implantation. METHOD This is a prospective and comparative study. In 120 eyes with moderate to high myopia and astigmatism, bifocal toric IOLs (n = 60 eyes) or trifocal toric IOLs (n = 60 eyes) were implanted. Eyes with axial lengths from 24.0 to 26.5 mm were included. Postoperative examinations measured near, intermediate, and distance visual acuity (VA), along with refractive measurements, binocular defocus curves, and patient satisfaction with the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire. RESULTS For uncorrected- and corrected distance intermediate VA, the trifocal group showed significantly better VA at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months than the bifocal group. Driving subscale scores from the questionnaire were significantly better in the trifocal than the bifocal group. Concerning the binocular defocus curve, uncorrected distance VA was significantly higher in the trifocal than bifocal group at test distances of -1.5 D. CONCLUSIONS Both trifocal and bifocal toric IOLs effectively corrected the near, intermediate, and distance vision in patients with moderate to high myopia and astigmatism. However, intermediate vision was significantly better in eyes with trifocal than bifocal toric IOLs.

Abstract
Objectives: To compare early subjective and objective vision quality of postoperative patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract surgery combined with implantation of refractive segmental multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) SBL-3 and apodized diffractive MIOL SN6AD1. Methods: As a prospective study, it enrolled 53 patients (53 eyes) to undergo phacoemulsification cataract surgery combined with MIOL implantation. According to differences in MIOL implanted, patients were divided into a SBL-3 group (25 eyes) and a SN6AD1 group (28 eyes). Ophthalmological evaluation included uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, uncorrected intermediate (UIVA) and near (UNVA) visual acuities, distance-corrected intermediate (DCIVA) and near (DCNVA)visual acuities and corrected near(CNVA) visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, modulation transfer function (MTF) and high order aberration (4 mm pupil diameter) at three months postoperatively. Moreover, a questionnaire survey was carried out to assess near spectacle independence, patient satisfaction and symptoms of visual disturbance. Results: At three months after surgery, UIVA and UNVA in the SBL-3 group are statistically significantly superior to those of the SN6AD1 group (P>0.05). There was statistical difference in contrast sensitivity at four spatial frequencies (3, 6, 12, 18cycles/degree) under mesopic conditions and mesopic conditions with glare (P>0.05). The total ocular high order aberration, coma and trefoil were statistically significantly larger in the SBL-3 group than in the SN6AD1 group with 4.0 mm pupil diameters (P>0.05). Statistical differences were found in the MTF at spatial frequencies of 5, 10 and 15 cycles/degree between the groups. There were no significant differences in spectacle independence, patient satisfaction and visual disturbance between the groups (P>0.05). Conclusions: Both the two multifocal intraocular lens provided an excellent level of quality of vision three months postoperatively. However, the application effect of SBL-3 MIOL is superior to that of SN6AD1 MIOL as far as intermediate vision, near vision and contrast sensitivity are concerned.

Abstract
Purpose To report clinical outcomes of a four-flanged intrascleral fixation technique using toric and multifocal intraocular lens. Observations We describe two cases of premium intraocular lens (IOL) implantation after which the patients fully recovered their visual function following a four-point sutureless scleral fixation technique via a 2.8-mm corneal incision. In the first case, a monofocal toric hydrophobic lens consisting of two haptic plates with four holes for suturing was fixated with 5-0 polypropylene monofilament. In the second case, a bifocal hydrophobic lens with the same haptic design was fixated. No conjunctival or scleral sutures, glue, or flap formation was required during the surgery. There were no complications related to the surgical process. Conclusions and Importance A four-flanged intrascleral fixation technique may benefit patients with poor zonular support who have high expectations for postoperative visual quality.

Multifocal and Extended Depth-of-Focus Intraocular Lenses in 2020. Ophthalmology 2020; 128:e164-e185.

Abstract
Ophthalmic surgeons have been overwhelmed by the influx of multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) options in recent years, with close to 100 IOLs on the market in 2020. This practical and technical update on a representative group of established as well as newly launched multifocal IOLs on the market focuses on multifocal IOLs, including extended depth-of-focus lenses. We also describe the optical basis of lens platforms used and thorough preoperative planning to aid decision making. This allows the surgeon the knowledge base to deliver the required relative customized spectacle independence with the least photic phenomenon and loss of contrast possible while achieving high individual patient satisfaction. Data of reviewed IOLs displayed in tabular format include mean monocular uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuities (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution), with standard deviations and ranges where available. The range of vision targeted, pupil dependence, toric availability, as well as type of optical platform, are provided as a practical guide to demystify existing terminology on the market that may create interest around a seemingly new design that is actually not novel at all. Halos and glare experienced, levels of patient satisfaction, and spectacle independence achieved also are summarized. A wide range of multifocal IOLs options are available on the market to surgeons. Comprehensive patient selection and examination, combined with knowledge of the most recent options and adequate patient counseling, including neuroadaptation, can avoid dissatisfaction. Many recently available IOLs are awaiting formal results, but the methods by which we label and compare these types of IOLs must also be standardized.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the clinical and visual outcomes, quality of near vision and the influence of photic phenomena in patients bilaterally implanted with a new Precizon Presbyopic multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Methods In this prospective consecutive case series, 20 eyes of 10 patients were included (mean age 63.80 ± 12.55 years). Uncorrected and corrected visual acuity (far, intermediate and near), subjective refraction, binocular defocus curve, contrast sensitivity (CSV-1000) and quality of vision and satisfaction questionnaires were measured. The follow-up was 12 months after surgery. Results At 12 months after surgery, uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) improved with surgery (p = 0.001) with a value of 0.08 ± 0.08 logMAR. Uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) was 0.22 ± 0.12 logMAR and distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) was 0.16 ± 0.13 logMAR. Intermediate distance visual acuity (UIVA) was 0.22 ± 0.10 logMAR. Contrast sensitivity outcomes were similar to normal population in photopic conditions and slightly reduced in mesopic conditions of lighting. Defocus curve showed that this multifocal IOL was able to provide a visual acuity (VA) equal or better to 0.16 logMAR between defocus levels of + 1.00 to − 2.50 D. Good patient satisfaction was obtained in quality of vision and satisfaction questionnaires outcomes. Conclusions The Precizon Presbyopic NVA IOL (OPHTEC BV) provides good visual outcomes. This multifocal IOL provides a high percentage of spectacle independence due to good VA at far, intermediate and near distances and satisfactory contrast sensitivity. High patient satisfaction was observed in quality of vision and satisfaction questionnaires with a low percentage of patients manifesting photic phenomena.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify the most sensitive visual performance metric for evaluating the pupil-dependency of a multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) and to determine the pupil measurement method most correlated with such metric. METHODS Twenty-seven right eyes implanted with a MIOL were included in the analysis. Three pupil size measurements were obtained preoperatively and at 1 month after surgery with the Keratograph 5M system: photopic (PP), mesopic (MP), and the average from both (AP). Pupil was also measured with a rule (RP) under the same light conditions of postoperative visual performance measurements that included, corrected visual acuities (VA) at three distances (far, 67 cm and 40 cm), visual acuity (VADC) and contrast sensitivity defocus curves for optotype sizes of 0.3 logMAR (CSDC3) and 0.7 logMAR (CSDC7). Differences in visual performance were also analyzed for eyes with RP > 3 mm (Group A) and RP ⩽ 3 mm (Group B). RESULTS PP diameter decreased after surgery by 16% (p = 0.001), whereas MP (p = 0.013) and AP (p = 0.008) decreased by 10%. The best agreement with RP was obtained for AP. Group B showed a trend to better performance than Group A for all the included metrics (p > 0.05). From the three types of defocus curves, CSDC3 obtained generally highest statistical power for testing differences between groups. The strongest statistically significant correlations between pupil size and CSDC3 were obtained for RP and AP. CONCLUSION The CSDC3 was the most sensitive metric to detect MIOL pupil-dependency. PR and AP were more correlated with CSDC3 than PP and MP.

Abstract
Background To show how the world appear to patients with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) using a novel mobile model eye. Methods The mobile model eye was composed of an artificial cornea, IOL, IOL chamber, and a camera. A monofocal IOL (Tecnis monofocal IOL) and two diffractive multifocal IOL (ReSTOR, Tecnis multifocal IOL) were used in the study. We went outside to take a picture of the scenery. At night, we stood on a road and took pictures to see how the traffic lights and headlights of cars looked. For an indoor analysis, we approached the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart to the model eye from a distance of 95 cm to check the multifocal function of the lenses. In the car, we took pictures of the street and a cell phone in turn to check the multifocal function of the lenses. Results Two multifocal IOLs showed definite multifocal function. Far objects appeared either similarly clear or slightly hazier (depending on the IOL model) than those with the monofocal IOL. In the night vision, there was a mild or severe halo around light sources compared to those with the monofocal IOL. Conclusion We believe that this mobile model eye can be used to evaluate how the real world appear to a patient with a multifocal IOL, to explain multifocal function of the IOLs, and possible complications in the patients, before performing a surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) effects on contrast sensitivity function (CSF) in patients with a multifocal intraocular lens (MfIOL). METHODS This single-center prospective case-control study analyzed 27 patients with 43 consecutive eyes. Twenty patients with 36 consecutive eyes received MfIOL implantation with either ZLB00 or ZMB00. CSF was measured as the area under the log contrast sensitivity function (AULCSF) in the presence and absence of PVD (PVD+ group and PVD- group, respectively). Seven eyes associated with a symptomatic PVD and severe visual dissatisfaction after MfIOL implantation underwent PPV (symptomatic PVD+ group). CSF was measured prior to and after PPV. RESULTS The mean AULCSF was significantly lower in the PVD+ group (1.5 ± 0.1) versus the PVD- group (1.7 ± 0.1, p < 0.0001). Major complaints in the symptomatic PVD+ group included floaters (n = 2) and blurry vision (n = 5). The preoperative AULCSF (1.4 ± 0.1) was significantly lower in the symptomatic PVD+ group versus the PVD- group (p < 0.0001) and PVD+ group (p = 0.02). The preoperative AULCSF in the symptomatic PVD+ group was significantly improved after PPV (1.4 vs. 1.7, respectively, p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS PVD significantly decreased CSF in patients with MfIOL. Patients with symptomatic PVD exhibited the greatest decrease in CSF, which was significantly improved after PPV. Measurement of CSF and careful assessment of PVD may be useful in determining the appropriateness of surgical intervention for improving visual performance and satisfaction in MfIOL patients with symptomatic PVD.

Decentration and tilt of plate-haptic multifocal intraocular lenses in myopic eyes. EYE AND VISION 2020; 7:17. [PMID: 32280721 PMCID: PMC7137526 DOI: 10.1186/s40662-020-00186-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2019] [Accepted: 03/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Background To investigate the decentration and tilt of plate-haptic multifocal intraocular lenses (MfIOLs) in myopic eyes. Methods Myopic (axial length [AXL] > 24.5 mm) and non-myopic (21.0 mm < AXL ≤ 24.5 mm) cataract eyes were enrolled in this prospective study and randomly assigned to receive implantation of Zeiss AT LISA tri 839MP lenses (Group A) or Tecnis ZMB00 lenses (Group B). In total, 122 eyes of 122 patients were available for analysis. Decentration and tilt of MfIOLs, high-order aberrations (HOAs), and modulation transfer functions (MTFs) were evaluated using the OPD-Scan III aberrometer 3 months postoperatively. Subjective symptoms were assessed with a Quality of Vision questionnaire. Results Near and distance visual acuities, tilt and horizontal decentration did not differ between the two groups, postoperatively. However, myopic eyes of Group B showed greater vertical decentration than those of Group A (− 0.17 ± 0.14 mm vs. -0.03 ± 0.09 mm, respectively), particularly when the MfIOLs were placed horizontally or obliquely. Overall decentration of myopic eyes was greater in Group B than in Group A (0.41 ± 0.15 mm vs. 0.16 ± 0.10 mm, respectively). In Group B, AXL was negatively correlated with vertical decentration and positively correlated with overall decentration. No such correlations were found in Group A. Intraocular total HOAs, coma, trefoil and spherical aberrations were lower in Group A than in Group B for a 6.0 mm pupil among myopic eyes. Generally, Group A had better MTFs and fewer subjective symptoms than Group B among myopic eyes. Conclusions Plate-haptic design of MfIOLs may be a suggested option for myopic cataract eyes due to the less inferior decentration and better visual quality postoperatively.

Abstract
Patients undergoing lens surgery nowadays have the option to choose between different intraocular lens (IOL) options depending on the ocular situation and personal preferences. For example, it is possible to implant a toric IOL to compensate for extensive corneal distortion or a multifocal IOL to have good visual acuity at various distances. The high level of competition in the lens market leads to fast development of new lens models giving patients the advantage to choose between a variety of options. This review article presents the most commonly used premium IOL options namely, aspheric, toric and multifocal IOLs and a summary of the current study situation for the different lens types. Compared to standard lenses, these lenses can improve uncorrected distance and near visual acuity; however, in some patients the added benefit can be only marginal and this is then an unnecessary cost factor for the patient. Furthermore, if inclusion and exclusion criteria are not respected the special forms of lenses can even lead to a poorer overall result.

Multifocal intraocular lenses and retinal diseases. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2020; 258:805-813. [PMID: 31955239 PMCID: PMC7575463 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-020-04603-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2019] [Revised: 01/04/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) are often discouraged in patients with or at risk of retinal disorders (including diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and epiretinal membranes), as MIOLs are believed to reduce contrast sensitivity (CS). Concerns with MIOLs have also been raised in individuals with visual field defects, fixation instability or eccentric preferred retinal locations. The aim of this study is to review the influence of MIOL on quality of vision in patients with retinal diseases. Methods We reviewed the PubMed and Web of Science databases to identify relevant studies using the following keywords: multifocal intraocular lens, cataract surgery, cataract extraction, lens exchange, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and contrast sensitivity. Results Studies evaluating CS in MIOLs present conflicting results: MIOLs either did not influence CS or resulted in worse performance under low-illuminance conditions and higher spatial frequencies when compared to monofocal IOLs. Nevertheless, MIOLs preserved CS levels within the age-matched normal range. Two studies reported that patients with concurrent retinal diseases receiving a MIOL, both unilaterally and bilaterally, reported a significant improvement in visual-related outcomes. Individuals with a monofocal IOL in one eye and a MIOL in the fellow eye reported greater subjective satisfaction with the MIOL. Conclusion We were unable to find evidence suggesting that patients with retinal diseases should be advised against MIOLs. Nevertheless, more research is needed to address the aforementioned concerns and to optimize the use of MIOLs in eyes with retinal disease.

Visual acuity and defocus curves with six multifocal intraocular lenses. Int Ophthalmol 2019; 40:393-401. [PMID: 31624988 DOI: 10.1007/s10792-019-01196-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2019] [Accepted: 10/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this prospective, randomized, double-masked, study was to compare the visual performance of patients after bilateral implantation of six different IOLs. METHODS The following IOLs were used in the study: SV25T0 (n = 19), ATLISA 809M (n = 18), ATLISA Tri 839MP (n = 19), ZKB00 (n = 20), ZLB00 (n = 20) and Symfony ZXR00 (n = 20). Visual performance was assessed by the monocular distance-corrected visual acuity at 4 m (CDVA), distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) at 60 cm and distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) at 40 cm. Binocular defocus curves were obtained for a range of defocus from + 1.50 D to - 4.50 D, in 0.50 D steps. Quality of life was assessed with the VF-14 questionnaire. RESULTS CDVA was better with the Symfony ZXR00 than with the SV25T0 (p = 0.032), ATLISA Tri 839MP (p = 0.032) and ATLISA 809M (p = 0.018). The Symfony ZXR00 offered the best DCIVA, followed by the ZKB00. The best and worst DCNVA results corresponded to the ZLB00, and the SV25T0 and Symfony ZXR00, respectively. Defocus curves at distance were good in all groups, although the Symfony had a wider range of clear vision (- 1.50 D to + 0.50 D), with no decay. For intermediate vision, only the Symfony obtained sharp visual acuity. The ATLISA 809M, ATLISA Tri 839MP and ZLB00 were superior at near distance. CONCLUSIONS The extended depth of focus of the Symfony ZXR00 offers a superior range of clear vision at far and intermediate distances than other multifocal designs, with worse results at near distance. Visual outcomes reflect the particular optical, geometrical and power distribution characteristics of each IOL.

Unilateral Multifocal Intraocular Lens Implantation in a Patient with Adie's Pupil. Case Rep Ophthalmol 2018; 9:369-374.

Abstract
Purpose To report a case of a patient with unilateral Adie's pupil who underwent bilateral cataract extraction with multifocal and monofocal posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Methods A 74-year-old woman presented to our institution complaining of worsening near vision. Gross examination revealed a 6-mm fixed pupil on the right eye (OD) and a 5-mm pupil reacting to 3 mm with light on the left eye (OS). Slit lamp examination revealed a tonic pupil with an exaggerated pupillary constriction to dilute pilocarpine OD. Dilated exam revealed 2–3+ nuclear and cortical lens changes bilaterally. The patient's active lifestyle, personality, and biometry measurements made her a good candidate for multifocal IOL (MfIOL) implantation OS. Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract extraction with a ReSTOR +3 ADD (SN60D1) implantation was performed OS. Monofocal lens implantation (SN60WF) was performed OD 6 months later. Results One year postoperatively, our patient had an uncorrected visual acuity (VAsc) of 20/15 for distance and J10 for near OD. Her VAsc was 20/25 +1 for distance and J1 for near OS. Visual acuity when using both eyes was 20/15 for distance and J1 for near. Conclusion Optimizing success for MfIOL implantation is a multifactorial process. Large pupils preoperatively are of particular concern, as this may lead to increased dysphotopsia with pupil-dependent MfIOLs. Thus, patients with unilateral mydriasis, such as Aide's pupil, may have a beneficial outcome combining multifocal-monofocal implantation after bilateral cataract extraction, especially if they are not a candidate for monovision but desire spectacle independence.

Abstract
Purpose/Aim: To evaluate the impact of ocular parameters on the visual performance achieved with the multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) Bi-Flex M 677MY. MATERIALS AND METHODS About 26 subjects were included in the current study. Several physiological variables were retrieved from the 3-month follow-up visit, including pupil diameter and distance from pupil center to the vertex normal of the anterior cornea (µ). These variables were also obtained in the preoperative visit. Binocular and monocular visual acuity defocus curves were measured at 1 and 3 months after surgery, respectively. The monocular Area Under the Curve (AUC) was computed along the total range (Total Area Under the Curve (TAUC), +1.00 to -4.00 D) and for the ranges of Far (Far Area Under the Curve (FAUC), +0.50 to -0.50 D), (Intermediate Area Under the Curve (IAUC), -1.00 to -1.50 D) and Near vision (Near Area Under the Curve (NAUC), -2.00 to -4.00 D). Correlations between these areas and the postoperative physiological variables were assessed. RESULTS The mean µ was reduced from 0.21 to 0.10 mm after surgery, as well as pupil diameters, either photopic (-7.4%) or mesopic (-8.1%) (p < 0.05). The mean AUCs were 2.08 ± 0.74 for TAUC, 0.57 ± 0.17 for FAUC, 0.16 ± 0.09 for IAUC, and 0.81 ± 0.29 for NAUC. Significant correlations were found between NAUC and corneal power (r = -0.39, p = 0.05) as well as between IAUC and temporal decentration of the lens from vertex normal (ρ = -0.41, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS The visual performance at near distance with the IOL evaluated improved in eyes with less corneal power. On the other hand, a slight temporal IOL decentration from vertex normal also improved intermediate visual acuity. The binocular defocus curve was similar to other trifocal IOLs.

Abstract
We report the case of an emmetropic 32-year-old female with decreased uncorrected visual acuity and diplopia due to intermittent episodes of spasm of the near reflex. Neurologic, general, and ophthalmic examination could not find an organic cause. Attempts at spontaneous recovery, psychogenic therapy, and cycloplegic therapy were unsuccessful and the symptoms persisted for almost 5 years, leading to psychogenic distress. Final treatment with refractive lens exchange and implantation of a toric trifocal intraocular lens resolved the spasm of the near reflex, resulting in an uncorrected distance and near visual acuity of 20/20.

Abstract
Background Today, patients often expect to achieve spectacle independance after cataract surgery. New trifocal intraocular lenses have been developed to try and fullfill this demand. The purpose of this study is to report the short-term visual outcomes of a new trifocal intraocular lens (AcrySof PanOptix™). Methods Consecutive adult patients undergoing cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of the study intraocular lens in a private practice clinic were considered for inclusion. Exclusion criteria were the presence of other ocular pathologies or preoperative astigmatism >1.5 diopters (D). Patients with intraoperative complications were excluded from analysis. One month after surgery patients underwent: monocular defocus curve; monocular and binocular uncorrected visual acuity in photopic and mesopic conditions, for far (4 m), intermediate (60 cm) and near (33 cm) distances and binocular contrast sensitivity. Patients completed a visual satisfaction questionnaire between 9 and 12 months after surgery. Results One hundred and sixteen eyes of fifty-eight patients receiving bilateral implantation of the study intraocular lens were analysed. Mean binocular uncorrected visual acuity in photopic conditions was 0.03 LogMAR for far, 0.12 for intermediate and 0.02 for near distances. All patients achieved a binocular uncorrected visual acuity better than 0.3 LogMAR (20/40 Snellen equivalent) for distance and near vision and 94.8% of patients for intermediate vision. Mesopic binocular uncorrected visual acuity values were similar to photopic values. The monocular defocus curves showed that the best visual acuity was reached at a vergence of 0.00D. Visual acuity dropped slightly at −1.00D and peaked again at −2.00D. Visual acuities better than 0.2 LogMAR were maintained between −2.50D and +0.50D. Contrast sensitivity was high and similar in photopic and mesopic conditions. As regards patient-evaluated outcomes, only 2 patients (3.4%) were fairly dissatisfied with their sight after surgery. Three patients (5.1%) reported the need for spectacle correction for certain activities. All other patients (94.8%) reported never using spectacle correction. Conclusions The PanOptix trifocal IOL provides good short-term visual outcomes, with good intermediate performance and excellent patient-reported satisfaction. The similar values achieved in mesopic and photopic conditions in binocular uncorrected visual acuity and contrast sensitivity suggest low pupillary dependence for light distribution. Trial registration number ISRCTN60143265, retrospectively registered on the 24th of April 2017.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the visual and refractive outcomes up to 1 year postoperatively following implantation of a refractive segmented or a refractive segmented toric multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). METHODS This retrospective study included 108 eyes of 64 patients who underwent cataract surgery with implantation of a refractive segmented multifocal IOL (Lentis Mplus LS-313 MF30 IOL) (LM group) and 81 eyes of 49 patients with implantation of a refractive segmented toric multifocal IOL (Lentis Mplus LU-313 MF30T IOL) (LMT group). The visual and refractive postoperative outcomes and the rate of additional refractive procedures were evaluated up to 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS The uncorrected distance visual acuity (VA) and uncorrected near VA exceeded 1.0 and 0.60 in decimal VA, respectively, and both were stable postoperative groups. The postoperative subjective refractive astigmatism was also stable and the postoperative refraction was near emmetropia in both groups. No significant differences were found in the need for additional surgical refractive procedures. CONCLUSION The outcomes with a refractive segmented toric multifocal IOL were comparable to those with a non-toric model despite higher preoperative corneal astigmatism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Refractive lens exchange and implantation of a multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) is mainly advised for ametropes with presbyopia. Non-presbyopic young ametropes who wish spectacle-independence are usually treated with corneal refractive surgery or phakic lenses. OBJECTIVES This retrospective case series aimed to analyse the refractive and subjective satisfaction outcome after MIOL surgery in both eyes of non-presbyopic ametropes where other treatment options were not possible. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective case series comprised consecutively treated 32 eyes of 16 patients (5 myopic, 11 hyperopic patients; mean age 31 ± 6 years) who wished spectacle-independence and thus received an aspheric bifocal biconvex refractive-diffractive single-piece MIOL (Acri.Lisa 366/809, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG). Refractive data prior to and after surgery as well as subjective satisfaction at the 1‑year follow-up examination were assessed. RESULTS Related to distance corrected near visual acuity myopic eyes had a median efficacy index (EI) of 0.92 (±0.20) and hyperopes of 0.91 (±0.12) (P = 0.415). For intermediate vision, in both groups a lower EI (<0.5; P = 0.188) resulted in lower subjective satisfaction, which was higher for near and distance vision. Some of hyperopic patients reported limitations in near and distance vision, only one hyperopic patient would not have chosen this surgery again. None had a related complication during the follow-up. CONCLUSIONS When neither laser refractive surgery nor implantation of a phakic lens is possible, young non-presbyopic ametropes do profit from MIOL surgery with an aspheric bifocal biconvex refractive-diffractive MIOL.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate postoperative outcomes and visual performance in intermediate distance after implantation of a +1.5 diopters (D) addition, aspheric, rotational asymmetric multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL). METHODS Patients underwent bilateral cataract surgery with implantation of an aspheric, asymmetric MIOL with +1.5 D near addition. A complete ophthalmological examination was performed preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. The main outcome measures were monocular and binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), distance corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) and distance corrected keratometry, and manifest refraction. The Salzburg Reading Desk was used to analyze unilateral and bilateral functional vision with uncorrected and corrected reading acuity, reading distance, reading speed, and the smallest log-scaled print size that could be read effectively at near and intermediate distances. RESULTS The study comprised 60 eyes of 30 patients (mean age, 68.30 ± 9.26 years; range, 34 to 80 years). There was significant improvement in UDVA and CDVA. Mean UIVA was 0.01 ± 0.09 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) and mean DCIVA was -0.02 ± 0.11 logMAR. In Salzburg Reading Desk analysis for UIVA, the mean subjective intermediate distance was 67.58 ± 8.59 cm with mean UIVA of -0.02 ± 0.09 logMAR and mean word count of 96.38 ± 28.32 words/min. CONCLUSIONS The new aspheric, asymmetric, +1.5 D near addition MIOL offers good results for distance visual function in combination with good performance for intermediate distances and functional results for near distance.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was initiated to introduce the term non-corneal ocular residual astigmatism (N-CORA) as a new parameter in astigmatic change analysis after implantation of two different types of non-toric, multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOL). METHODS Seventy-two eyes from 72 consecutive patients after MIOL surgery were studied in terms of a retrospective, cross-sectional data analysis. Two types of spherical MIOL were used. Surgical technique in all patients was a 2.4-mm incision phacoemulsification, performed by one surgeon. To investigate the magnitude and axis of astigmatic changes, the true corneal astigmatism and Alpins vector method were applied. RESULTS There were no statistically significant between-group differences related to the preoperative refraction or ocular residual astigmatism (ORA). After surgery, the mean refractive surgically induced astigmatism (RSIA) and the topographic SIA (TSIA) did not differ significantly between the lenses. The magnitude and orientation of ORA and N-CORA changed after surgery. CONCLUSIONS There are no statistically significant differences in postoperative ORA in magnitude or axis when implanting different types of MIOL. The similarity of N-CORA between both MIOL types shows that both diffractive and refractive asymmetric MIOLs with plate haptics have the same pseudolentogenic astigmatic effect which could be presented in terms of the newly introduced parameter N-CORA.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) before and after implantation of two different optical types of non-toric multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOL) in pre-cataract patients. This retrospective cohort study analyzed 72 eyes from 72 consecutive patients after MIOL surgery . To investigate magnitude and axis of astigmatic changes, the concepts of true corneal astigmatism and Alpins vector method were applied. There were no statistically significant between-group differences prior to surgery. The mean refractive surgically induced astigmatism (RSIA) (P = 0.063) and the topographic SIA (TSIA) (P = 0.828) did not differ significantly between the lenses, and the summated vector mean for ORA was reduced in terms of magnitude by approximately 0.30 Diopter. ORA in pseudophakic eyes mainly results from the posterior corneal surface and less from IOL tilting, postoperative posterior capsule shrinkage, or secondary cataract.

Abstract
The outcomes of a prospective consecutive study aimed at evaluating the visual and refractive benefit after cataract surgery with the implantation of the aspheric diffractive multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) Tecnis ZMB00 (Abbott Medical Optics) are reported. A total of 31 eyes of 19 patients (age range, 40 to 81 years) underwent phacoemulsification surgery with implantation of this aspheric multifocal IOL. At 6 months after surgery, postoperative spherical equivalent was within ±1.00 D in 96.8% of eyes, with 94.7% of patients presenting a postoperative binocular far LogMAR uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of 0.1 or better. Far best-corrected distance VA improved significantly (p < 0.01), with postoperative values of 0.1 or better in 96.8% of eyes. Postoperative near UCVA was 0.10 (equivalent to J1) or better in 93.55% of eyes. Furthermore, the IOL power was found to be very poorly correlated with the postoperative far LogMAR (r = 0.13) and near UCVA (r = 0.13). In conclusion, the aspheric diffractive multifocal IOL Tecnis ZMB00 provides a restoration of the far and near visual function after phacoemulsification surgery for cataract removal or presbyopia correction, which is predictable and independent from the optical power of the implanted IOL.
