Purpose: To determine whether implantation of the AcrySof Natural intraocular lens (IOL) worsened the severity of existing color deficit in congenital partial red-green color deficient individuals (CPRG).
Methods: A prospective controlled randomized double-masked analysis of 30 consecutive patients with CPRG defect and bilateral cataracts received a Natural IOL (test group) in 1 eye and a single-piece AcrySof IOL (control group) in the other eye. Patients were tested unilaterally to detect CPRG defect using Ishihara pseudoisochromatic plates and the Farnsworth D-15 test. Plates 1 to 21 measured the Ishihara error score; plates 22 to 25 indicated severity of defect based on clarity of both numerals as partial mild/moderate (both visible), partial severe defect (only 1 visible). The D-15 test is based on number of diametrical crossings on the circular diagram; severity is graded as mild (1 crossing), moderate (2 crossings), or severe (>2 crossings). Tests were performed before and after IOL implantation at 1, 3, and 6 months. At mean follow-up of 6.13 months +/- 1.2 (SD), analysis of variance test judged the difference in error scores and cross tabulation represented change in number of diametrical crossings.
Results: The mean age was 62.3 +/- 8.5 years. All patients were men. Before IOL implantation, all patients had moderate CPRG defect on both tests. The Ishihara error score in the test and control groups did not reveal statistically significant differences (P = .505 and P = .119, respectively). With D-15, none of the patients in the test or control group showed >2 crossings.
Conclusion: The implantation of AcrySof Natural IOL did not worsen the preexisting severity of color defect in CPRG individuals.

Aim: To compare the postoperative binocular visual performance with an iTrace analyzer following femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) combined with bilateral implantation of two different types of diffractive trifocal intraocular lenses (IOL).
Methods: During this retrospective observational study, patients who received bilateral FLACS combined with implantation of two different types of diffractive trifocal IOLs were evaluated. According to the IOLs' different types and design, the patients were divided into AT LISA tri839MP group (tri839 group) and AcrySof PanOptix TFNT00 group (TFNT group).
Quantitative evaluation of microvacuole formation in five intraocular lens models made of different hydrophobic materials.

In this laboratory study, we assessed the resistance to microvacuole (glistening) formation in hydrophobic intraocular lenses (IOLs). Glistenings were induced in five lenses each of five different hydrophobic acrylic IOL models, using an established in vitro laboratory model: 800C (Rayner, Worthing, UK), AcrySof SN60WF (Alcon, Fort Worth, USA), Tecnis ZCB00 (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Santa Ana, USA), Vivinex XY1 (Hoya, Tokyo, Japan) and CT Lucia 611P (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany). We evaluated the number of microvacuoles per square millimeter (MV/mm2) in the central part of each IOL.

Introduction: Foldable hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) are prone to develop a long-term postoperative material change called glistenings. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the predisposition for glistening formation in one type of hydrophobic acrylic IOL material from its introduction to the present day.
Methods: In a laboratory setup, an in vitro model was used to induce glistenings in hydrophobic acrylic IOLs manufactured by one company (Alcon, Fort Worth, TX, USA) in different years: 23 1990s-manufacture hydrophobic acrylic three-piece IOLs (MA30BA/MA60AC) that were explanted in 1996 and 1997, and five of each of the newer AcrySof IOL models (MA60AC, SA60AT, TFNT00 and SN60WF) from 2014 to 2017.

Aims: To compare the characteristics of glistenings and forward light scatter between the Alcon Acrysof SN60WF and Santen Eternity Natural Uni NW-60 intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods: Five Acrysof SN60WF and five Eternity Natural Uni NW-60 IOLs were studied. All IOLs were single piece blue blockers with the same dioptric power (20D) and optic diameter (6.

To evaluate the rotational stability of the Toric intraocular lens (TIOL) and influencing factors in cataract patients with different axial length. This retrospective cohort study consecutively enrolled patients who had phacoemulsification and AcrySof TIOL implantation in Peking University Third Hospital from May 2018 to January 2019. Based on axial length, patients were divided into two groups.
