Exact positioning and optimal axial alignment are mandatory to achieve satisfactory postoperative refractive results after implantation of a toric or presbyopia correcting intraocular lens (IOL). Posterior capsule rupture can preclude stable capsular fixation. In such cases, reverse optic capture with haptic tuck results in stable fixation of the lens with respect to centering, rotation and axial position.

Background: Evaluation of clinical and functional results of a new extended depth of focus intraocular lens (EDOF-IOL).

Methods: Fourteen cataract patients (28 bilateral implantations) were assessed for uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities; uncorrected (UNVA), distance-corrected (DCNVA) and best corrected (CNVA) near visual acuities; and uncorrected (UIVA) and distance-corrected (DCIVA) intermediate visual acuities - as well as binocular defocus curves. Photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity was recorded.
