Clinical safety and efficacy of a hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens in a real-world population: a 1-year follow-up retro-prospective study.

Background: This multicentre, retro-prospective real-world study evaluated the visual, refractive and safety outcomes of a monofocal lens 1 year after implantation in cataract patients with or without pre-existing ocular pathologies.

Methods: Records from 4 centres in Germany and Sweden were reviewed to select eyes with aged-related cataracts, having undergone crystalline lens extraction by phacoemulsification and implantation of a CT ASPHINA 409 IOL. Preoperative, 1-month and 3-month postoperative data was collected retrospectively.
