Clinical outcomes with a new diffractive multifocal intraocular lens optimized by the dynamic light utilization algorithm.

Background/objectives: To evaluate the refractive outcomes, optical performance, and the quality of vision in patients implanted with a new diffractive intraocular lens (IOL), the Intensity Hanita.

Subjects/methods: This observational, prospective, longitudinal study included 64 eyes underwent bilateral cataract surgery with the Intensity IOL (Hanita Israel) implantation. Main outcome measures after 6 months were the following visual acuities (VAs) of uncorrected and corrected distance (UDVA and CDVA), uncorrected and distance corrected intermediate VAs (UIVA and DCIVA), uncorrected and distance corrected near (UNVA and DCNVA), refraction, slitlamp biomicroscopy, defocus curve (DFC), high ocular aberrations (HOA), contrast sensitivity (CS), optical quality, subjective quality of vision (QoV) and near activity visual questionnaires (NAVQ).
