Surgical outcome comparisons of multifocal IOLs of Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 and Tecnis Eyhance DIB00V.

Aim: To compare the surgical outcomes of a multifocal intraocular lens (IOL; Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15) with those of an enhanced monofocal IOL (Tecnis Eyhance DIB00V).

Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent cataract surgery with LS-313 MF15 or Eyhance IOL implantation. Data regarding patient demographics, surgical records, and ophthalmic examination before the cataract surgery and one and three months postoperatively were collected. Visual acuities, refractive values, defocus curves, contrast sensitivities and subjective symptoms were evaluated.

Results: Among the 71 eyes (47 patients) included in this study, 32 eyes (20 patients) underwent LS-313 MF15 IOL implantation, and 39 eyes (27 patients) underwent Eyhance IOL implantation. No significant differences were observed in age, axial length, or refractive error between the two groups preoperatively. Furthermore, the distance-corrected and uncorrected distance visual acuities one month postoperatively did not differ between the groups, and both groups had sufficient visual acuities at the distances of 5, 1 m, 70, 50, and 30 cm. Other ophthalmic data, including subjective symptoms based on the 14-item Visual Function Index Questionnaire, monocular defocus curves, contrast sensitivities, and halo and glare, did not differ between the groups three months postoperatively. Moreover, both groups had good outcomes. The spherical equivalent one month postoperatively was significantly myopic in the LS-313 MF15 group compared with that in the Eyhance group (=0.033); however, this difference was not observed three months postoperatively (=0.471).

Conclusion: Comparison of the surgical outcomes of LS-313 MF15 with those of Eyhance with different optical properties reveal that both IOLs show good postoperative outcomes, with no significant differences being noted between the two IOLs.
