Abstract Details

Purpose:

The purpose of this study is to compare the visual outcomes of Panoptix trifocal intraocular lenses (IOL) and the multifocal ReSTOR �.0 D IOL�â�€�™s.

Setting:

Bayindir Hospital, Ankara, TURKEY

Methods:

This prospective, non-randomized comparative study included 50 eyes in 38 patients underwent cataract surgery and multifocal intraocular lens implants. 30 eyes received multifocal Restor�.0 D IOL, 20 eyes received Panoptix IOL. Ophthalmological evaluation included the measurement of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA), and distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA).

Results:

Postoperative UDVA was 0.05 and 0.04 logMAR in the multifocal Restor �.0 D IOL and Panoptix trifocal IOL groups, respectively (p=0.825); postoperative CDVA was 0.01 and 0.02 logMAR, respectively (p=0.66); DCIVA was 0.19 and 0.52 logMAR, respectively (p=0.000); and DCNVA was 0.05 and 0.09 logMAR, respectively (p=0.001). In both groups, there was an improvement in the spherical equivalent and UDVA (p<0.05). The Panoptix lenses exhibited better behavior for intermediate vision, according to the defocus curve and a shorter reading distance than the ReSTOR � group.

Conclusions:

Good visual quality for long and short distances provided by both lenses. Panoptix exhibited a better intermediate vision.
