Abstract Details

Purpose:

To evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent cataract surgery with the implantation of a monofocal IOL designed to improve both distance and intermediate vision (Eyhance, J&J Vision).

Setting:

Hospital da Luz, Lisbon, Portugal

Methods:

This prospective case series included patients who underwent phacoemulsification with the implantation of the new EyhanceIOL. 54 eyes of 27 patients were included, with 1-month follow-up period. The main outcome measures were uncorrected distance (UDVA), correct distance (CDVA) and distance correct, intermediate (DCIVA) and near (DCNVA) visual acuities, spherical equivalent (SE) refraction, contrast sensitivity, the presence of dysphotopsia and the defocus curve.

Results:

The mean post-operative residual SE was -0.13  0.33 D. The mean UDVA was 0.00  0.09 logMAR, CDVA was -0.03  0.09, DCIVA was 0.16  0.12 and DCNVA was 0.41  0.12 logMAR. Photopic contrast sensitivity was above aged-matched normal values for all spatial frequencies. The presence of dysphotopsia was very low with less than 5% report moderate Halos or glare. No starburst were report. The defocus curve showed visual acuity of 0.1 logMAR or better from 0.5 to -1.50 D of defocus.

Conclusions:

The new monofocal IOL design (Eyhance, J&J Vision) offers a good visual acuity over 0.1 logMar from 0.5 to -1.50 D of Defocus, without compromise normal photopic contrast sensitivity or distance acuity vision. Dysphotopsia fenomena report was similar to a monofocal IOL.
