Purpose: To evaluate the spherical aberration in aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs) using a model eye.
Setting: Nara Medical University, Nara, Japan.
Design: Experimental study.
Methods: This study tested 20.00 diopter (D) and 10.00 to 30.00 D aspheric IOLs in a fluid-filled model constructed to replicate the optical condition of a pseudophakic human eye. Spherical aberration was measured by Hartmann-Shack aberrometry. The 3 IOLs tested were the Acryfold AC60AD (IOL AC), Acrysof IQ SN60WF (IOL IQ), and Tecnis ZA9003 (IOL ZA). The 1-sample t test and Pearson correlation analysis were used for statistical evaluation.
Results: The measured spherical aberration in the 20.00 D IOL AC was statistically significantly less than the manufacturer-indicated value (P=.0020); there was no significant difference for the 20.00 D IOL IQ and IOL ZA. The correlation between IOL power and spherical aberration was significant for IOL AC with a 4.0 mm aperture (P=.0007, r = -0.646) and 6.0 mm aperture (P<.0001, r=-0.684), IOL IQ with a 4.0 mm aperture (P=.040, r=-0.390) but not with a 6.0 mm aperture (P=.929), and IOL ZA with a 4.0 mm aperture (P<.0001, r=-0.696) and 6.0 mm aperture (P=.011, r=-0.470).
Conclusions: Negative correlations were found between IOL power and spherical aberration for 3 aspheric IOL models, particularly for IOL AC and IOL ZA. In a clinical setting, aspheric IOL implantation may result in negative spherical aberration that could exceed the manufacturer-indicated value.

Objective: To assess the visual quality in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) complicated by cataracts after cataract phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and goniosynechialysis, and to explore the relationship between pupil size and visual quality.
Methods: A retrospective, non-randomized study was conducted, including 65 PACG patients (75 eyes) who underwent cataract surgery with IOL implantation and goniosynechialysis from July 2021 to June 2023, as well as a control group of cataract-only patients. Visual quality was evaluated using objective and subjective methods at least 3 months postoperatively.

Clinical Relevance: Horizontal rectus muscle surgeries may cause changes in corneal and anterior segment parameters. Corneal topography is an important device for identifying these alterations.
Background: The aim of this work is to evaluate the effects of horizontal rectus muscle surgeries on corneal topography, anterior chamber parameters and corneal wavefront aberrations.

This laboratory study aims to assess the effects of misaligning different trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) under varying spectral and corneal spherical aberration (SA) conditions. With an IOL metrology device under monochromatic and polychromatic conditions, the following models were studied: AT ELANA 841P, AT LISA Tri 839MP, FineVision HP POD F, Acrysof IQ PanOptix, and Tecnis Synergy ZFR00V. The SA was simulated using an aberration-free and average-SA cornea.

We aimed to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using (cardamom) extracts and assess the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of the cardamom extract, -AgNPs, and the insecticide ATCBRA-commonly used for pest control-on the root system of (broad bean). The chemical composition of the aqueous cardamom extract was identified and quantified using GC-MS, revealing a variety of bioactive compounds also present in cardamom essential oil. These included α-terpinyl acetate (21.

Methods: This retrospective case series enrolled 25 eyes with high astigmatism that underwent SMILERO surgery. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), manifest refraction, central corneal thickness, and corneal higher order aberrations were analyzed before surgery and after 3, 6, and 12 months of follow-up.
