Purpose: To compare the refractive power profile, subjective depth-of-field and objective optical quality of two advanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) designed to improve intermediate vision.
Methods: This prospective study evaluated forty-six eyes of twenty-three patients, aged 54-68 years, binocularly implanted with two monofocal enhanced intraocular lenses (IOLs), the Tecnis Eyhance and the Physiol Isopure. Subjective through-focus visual acuity curves were obtained by placing trial lenses in front of the eye while wearing its best spherical-cylindrical correction for distance.
Article Synopsis
- Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a common cause of evaporative dry eye disease (DED), and the immune mechanisms behind it remain unclear, prompting a study using nCounter technology to analyze immune gene expression in DED-MGD.* -
- The study involved collecting conjunctival cell samples from 27 patients with DED-MGD and 22 asymptomatic controls, followed by RNA analysis to identify gene expression patterns linked to the condition and the development of a diagnostic signature.* -
- Results showed 45 immune genes were upregulated in DED-MGD, leading to the identification of a 4-gene mRNA signature that can distinguish DED-MGD from controls with 77.5% accuracy
Purpose: To investigate the clinical validity of using wavefront measurements obtained with a recently available pyramidal aberrometer to assess the optical quality of eyes implanted with diffractive intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods: Individual biometric data were used to create models of pseudophakic eyes implanted with two diffractive IOLs. Their synthetic wavefronts were calculated by ray-tracing with near infrared wavelength (0.
