Purpose: To assess the potential effect of surface light scattering on light transmittance of 1-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) with or without a blue-light filter.
Setting: John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.

Purpose: To evaluate the biocompatibility and capsular bag opacification of an accommodating intraocular lens (IOL) containing large haptic elements that separate the anterior and posterior capsules.
Setting: John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
We analyzed a single-piece plate-type hydrophilic acrylic posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) that was explanted due to a progressive loss of vision, which occurred 6 years after uncomplicated phacoemulsification. Gross and light microscopy, as well as anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed granular deposits below the IOL surface. Light scattering, as measured with Scheimpflug photography and densitometry analyses was found to be increased; spectrophotometry demonstrated a decrease in the light transmittance of the explanted lens.

Design: Comparative case series with pathology.
Participants: A total of 661 pseudophakic cadaver eyes, obtained from eye banks within the United States, implanted with different IOLs.
Purpose: To evaluate uveal and capsular biocompatibility of a 1-piece intraocular lens (IOL) manufactured from a new hydrophobic acrylic material that incorporates a barrier step at the optic-haptic junctions.
Setting: John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
