Purpose: To evaluate computationally the optical performance of AcrySof IQ Vivity extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lenses (IOLs) in post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) eyes.

Setting: Visual Optics and Biophotonics Laboratory, Madrid, Spain.

Design: Experimental study.

Methods: Computer pseudophakic eye models were implemented using reported post-LASIK corneal aberrations (refractive corrections from -7.5 to +4.5 diopters [D]) and virtually implanted with monofocal (AcrySof IQ) or EDOF (AcrySof IQ Vivity) IOLs. Retinal image quality was quantified through visual Strehl (VS). The depth of focus (DOF) was calculated from the through-focus VS curves. Halos were estimated from the light spread in the image of a pinhole. Those quantitative parameters were obtained for 5.0 and 3.0 mm pupil diameters.

Results: Simulated virgin eyes showed VS of 0.89/0.99 with monofocal IOLs and 0.74/0.52 with EDOF IOLs for 5.0/3.0 mm pupils at best focus. VS decreased with induced spherical aberration (SA) by 25% and with induced SA + coma by 61% on average (3.0 mm pupils). The DOF was 2.50 D in virgin eyes with EDOF IOLs, 1.66 ± 0.30 and 2.54 ± 0.31 D ( P < .05) on average in post-LASIK eyes for 3.0 mm pupils, monofocal and EDOF IOLs, respectively. Halos were more sensitive to SA induction for 5.0 mm pupils, and induction of positive SA (myopic LASIK) resulted in reduced halos with the EDOF when compared with the monofocal IOLs, by 1.62 (SA) and 1.86 arc min (SA + coma), on average.

Conclusions: Computer post-LASIK pseudophakic eye models showed that the DOF was less dependent on the presence of SA and coma with EDOF IOLs and that halos were reduced with EDOF IOLs compared with the monofocal IOL for a range of SA.

Purpose: This study compares the functional outcomes of correction using two different types of aberrational extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lenses (IOLs).

Material And Methods: The study was conducted in two standardized groups (20 patients, 20 eyes in each group). Patients in group 1 were implanted EDOF IOL I, in group 2 - EDOF IOL II.

Visually relevant on-bench through-focus analysis of intraocular lenses.

Cataract surgery involves the implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) to replace the opacified crystalline lens. Monofocal IOLs, the most common type, are intended to have the eye in focus at a given distance, usually at infinity. Simultaneous vision IOLs (SVIOLs) and extended depth of focus (EDOF) aim to minimize postoperative dependence on spectacles by providing either multiple foci or an extended depth of focus.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of three different types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) used in cataract surgery: bilateral hybrid multifocal IOLs, a mix of enhanced depth of focus and hybrid multifocal, and a mix of enhanced monofocal and hybrid multifocal.
  • 75 patients were randomly assigned to one of the three groups and assessed after 6 months for various visual acuity measures, reading speed, and quality of vision.
  • Results indicated that while bilateral hybrid multifocal IOLs provided better near vision, they also caused more visual disturbances like starbursts compared to the mix-and-match options, suggesting that different IOL combinations could cater to individual patient needs.

This study presents a systematic method to simulate various intraocular lenses (IOLs) available in the market. Five IOLs (two trifocals, one bifocal, one enhanced monofocal, and one extended depth of focus (EDOF)) were evaluated in terms of through focus visual Strehl (TFVS) utilizing the OptiSpheric IOL PRO2 device (Trioptics GmbH). Then, the estimated TFVS (ETFVS) and the temporal coefficients necessary for temporal multiplexing were computed, and through an iterative process, the SimVis TFVS was obtained.

Effect of enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses on glaucoma patients' foveal threshold.

Purpose: We investigated the effect of enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOL) (TECNIS Eyhance DIB00V) on retinal sensitivity in glaucoma patients after cataract surgery by comparing results with of such patients implanted with non-enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (TECNIS ZCB00V).

Patients And Methods: This was a multi-facility retrospective study of glaucoma patients who had undergone cataract surgery. We measured the value of the foveal threshold with a Humphrey visual field analyzer before and after cataract surgery and considered this value to represent the sensitivity of the retina.
