Abstract Details

Purpose:

Evaluation of the visual performance after bilateral implantation of a new advanced EDOF monofocal implant (Synthesis Plus©, Cutting Edge) based on the combination of two asphericity, 3 months after cataract surgery.

Setting:

University Brest Hospital - CHU Morvan Department of Ophthalmology - BREST - France

Methods:

15 patients, candidates for bilateral cataract surgery, received this IOL introduced on the market as an advanced reimbursed monofocal. Visual acuity was measured at 4m, 70cm and 35cm, supplemented by a defocus curve and an assessment of the quality of vision by aberrometry (iTracey) , questionnaire of life (VF-11R) and Salzburg Reading chart ©.

Results:

Mean age of the patients was 73 years old. Mean uncorrected visual acuity for distance, intermediate and near vision was respectively 0.8, 0.8 and 0.63. The defocus curve showed a depth of field of an average of 1.5 D in dome shaped. 20% of cases were spectacles independent at all distances when 70% still use glasses for near vision. We have to report 2 refractive unexplained surprises. Non-disabling halos and glare are noted in 8% of cases and 90% of patients declare to be very satisfied.

Conclusions:

the progress of optics, such as the modulation of asphericity, seems to be an added value in the comfort of life of cataract operated patients who access most of their daily activities without additional optical equipment, with preservation of correct quality of vision.
