Visual acuity comparison of 2 models of bifocal aspheric intraocular lenses.

Purpose To compare visual acuity after bilateral implantation of 2 models of multifocal aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs). Setting Fernandez-Vega Ophthalmological Institute, Oviedo, and University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain. Methods Prospective study of patients who had bilateral implantation of an AcrySof ReSTOR SN6AD3 IOL (Group 1) or an Acri.LISA 366D IOL (Group 2). Six months postoperatively, binocular uncorrected and best corrected distance visual acuity, uncorrected-distance and best distance-corrected near visual acuity, best corrected intermediate visual acuity, and the defocus curve were measured in both IOL groups. Results Group 1 comprised 36 eyes (18 patients) and Group 2, 40…

Visual Performance after AcrySof ReSTOR Aspheric Intraocular Lens Implantation

Purpose: To evaluate distance, intermediate and near visual performance in patients who had undergone implantation of the multifocal aspheric AcrySof ReSTOR intraocular lens (IOL). Methods: Binocular best distance corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at high and low contrast [4 m], best distance corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA) [40 cm], intermediate visual acuity [80 and 60 cm], and distance contrast sensitivity (CS) under photopic [85 cd/m2] and mesopic [3 cd/m2] conditions, were measured in 36 eyes that underwent implantation of the AcrySof ReSTOR Aspheric IOL (SN6AD3). Results: At the 3-month postoperative visit, binocular BCVA was -0.058±0.091, 0.200±0.079, and 0.258±0.071 logMAR, for 100…

Femtosecond laser for residual refractive error correction after refractive lens exchange with multifocal intraocular lens implantation.

Purpose To assess visual and refractive outcomes of femtosecond laser for residual refractive error correction after refractive lens exchange (RLE) with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Design Prospective, nonrandomized, masked observational case series (self-controlled). Methods Fifty-three eyes of 31 consecutive patients were submitted to femtosecond laser surgery after RLE with multifocal IOL implantation. Patients showed an average manifest refractive error (D) of M , 0.200 ± 0.490; J 0 , −0.051 ± 0.532; and J 45 , −0.007 ± 0.371. Visual acuity (VA) was measured at distance and near vision before and six months after the surgery. Results At six months after surgery, mean …

Visual function after implantation of an aspheric bifocal intraocular lens.

Purpose To evaluate distance, intermediate, and near vision after bifocal aspheric AcrySof ReSTOR SN6AD1 intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Setting Fernandez-Vega Ophthalmological Institute, Oviedo, Spain. Methods Binocular distance best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (4.0 m), best distance-corrected near (40.0 cm) and intermediate (70.0, 60.0, 50.0 cm) acuities, and contrast sensitivity under photopic (85.0 candelas [cd]/m 2 ) and mesopic (3.0 cd/m 2 ) conditions with and without glare were measured postoperatively. A patient-satisfaction and visual phenomena questionnaire was administered. Results Six months postoperatively, the mean acuities (logMAR) were binocular BCVA, −0.064 ± 0.049…
