Abstract Details
Purpose:
To evaluate the clinical outcomes with a rotationally asymmetric, +2.00D add power multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) design.
Setting:
Optegra Solent Eye Hospital and Optegra Surrey Eye Hospital
Methods:
Observational case series. Twenty-eight patients (49 eyes) underwent Lentis® LS-313 MF20 implantation by a single surgeon at two sites. Pre- and post-operative monocular uncorrected distance (UDVA) and near (UNVA) vision was recorded along with corrected distance and near visual acuity (CDVA and CNVA respectively) and operative and post-operative complication rates.
Results:
Patients ranged in age from 46 to 76 years (mean±SD 63±8 years). Mean monocular pre-operative and post-operative UDVA was LogMAR 0.68±0.69 and 0.00±0.09 respectively (p<0.05). Pre-operative and post-operative CDVA was LogMAR 0.05±0.1 and -0.07±0.06 respectively (p<0.05). 100% of eyes achieved UDVA 6/9 or better and 71% of eyes achieved 6/6 or better postoperatively. 96% of eyes achieved UNVA N8 or better unaided. Binocularly all patients achieved combined 6/7.5 and N6 unaided and 81% of patients achieved combined 6/6 and N5 unaided. There were no operative complications and few post-operative complications (PCO, mild iritis) recorded. There was a low incidence of dysphotopsia symptoms reported.
Conclusions:
The Lentis® LS-313 MF20 IOL is an effective way to enhance both distance and near vision following phacoemulsification surgery. FINANCIAL INTEREST: NONE
