Aim: To compare visual quality after unilateral cataract surgery with implantation of trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) and asymmetric refractive multifocal IOL.

Methods: The prospective nonrandom, comparative study consisted of 60 eyes of 60 patients suffering unilateral cataract surgery with implantation of two different IOLs: AT LISA tri 839MP (30 eyes; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Germany) and LS-313 MF30 (30 eyes; Oculentis GmbH, Germany). Visual acuity, refractive outcome, contrast sensitivity, defocus curves, quality of vision, and optical phenomena were evaluated at 3mo postoperatively.

Aim: To determine moxonidine in aqueous humor and iris-ciliary body by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and to evaluate the retinal neuroprotective effect after topical administration with moxonidine in a high intraocular pressure (IOP) model.

Methods: The eyes of albino rabbits were administered topically and ipsilaterally with 0.2% moxonidine.

Aim: To investigate the early outcomes of vision, objective visual quality and their correlation after cataract surgery with trifocal intraocular lens implantation.

Methods: The visual examination and objective visual quality analysis using Optical Quality Analysis System (OQAS) at 1mo and 3mo, and defocus curve examination at 3mo were performed in 20 patients (27 eyes) after phacoemulsification combined with trifocal intraocular lens implantation surgery.

Results: The uncorrected distant (UD), intermediate and near visual acuity (VA) were significantly improved after surgery (<0.

Aim: To study the effects of intraocular lens (IOL) explantation and demographic characteristics.

Methods: Retrospective non-comparative case series. Clinical data recorded from patient charts included the following: demographic, preoperative and postoperative characteristics; complications; surgical methods, and changes in visual acuity.
