Factors influencing myopic shift in children after intraocular lens implantation.
2019
Introduction:Intraocular lenses have always been a controversial topic in pediatric cataract surgery. In the early 1990s in the post-Soviet states of Eastern Europe, intraocular lenses promised an easier full-time correction and amblyopia treatment. Since 1991, ophthalmologists in Latvia have been implanting intraocular lenses in infants. Amount of the postoperative myopic shift and its influencing factors, analyzed in this article, are important indicators of congenital cataract treatment.Materials and methods:A retrospective chart review off 85 children (137 eyes) who underwent foldable posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation at the Clinical University Hospital in Riga, Latvia, fr…
Visual function after implantation of an aspheric bifocal intraocular lens.
2009
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…
Visual function after bilateral implantation of a new zonal refractive aspheric multifocal intraocular lens.
2011
Purpose To evaluate visual function after bilateral implantation of a zonal refractive aspheric multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). Setting Private practice surgery center, Valencia, Spain. Design Cohort study. Methods Consecutive eyes with cataract had bilateral implantation of Lentis Mplus LS-312 multifocal IOLs. Distance, intermediate, and near visual acuities; contrast sensitivity; defocus curves; and a quality-of-vision questionnaire, including presence of halos or dysphotopsia, were evaluated 6 months postoperatively. A control group of age-matched monofocal pseudophakic patients was included to compare contrast sensitivity function. Results In the multifocal group, the mean binocular …
Multifocal intraocular lenses for unilateral cataract in children.
2009
Purpose To evaluate the implantation of apodized diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) in children with unilateral cataract. Setting Ophthalmology Service, Hospital Clinico Lozano Blesa, Zaragoza, Spain. Design Prospective clinical study. Methods Five children between 4 and 6 years of age with unilateral cataract had cataract extraction and implantation of an apodized diffractive multifocal IOL (AcrySof Restor SN60D3). Phacoaspiration was accompanied by posterior capsulorhexis followed by an anterior vitrectomy. Uncorrected distance (UDVA), corrected distance (CDVA), and corrected near (CNVA) visual acuities; binocular function using the Worth 4-dot test and the TNO stereotest; a…
ReSTOR® Diffractive versus Array®2 Zonal-progressive Multifocal Intraocular Lens: a Contralateral Comparison
2007
PURPOSE. To evaluate near and distance visual performance after implantation of a diffractive multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) (AcrySof ReSTOR ® ) or a refractive MIOL (Array ® 2) in bilateral cataract surgery. METHODS. In this prospective, comparative trial, 18 patients with bilateral cataract were selected to have lens surgery with asymmetric MIOL implantation. Eighteen eyes received ReSTOR MIOL and the 18 fellow eyes were implanted with Array 2. Five months after second lens implantation, main postoperative outcomes were uncorrected and distance corrected near visual acuities (VA). Secondary outcomes were distance VA and near acuity with power add, contrast sensitivity with and without…
Effect of large positioning holes on capsule fixation of plate-haptic intraocular lenses
2000
Abstract Purpose To compare the centration and fixation of silicone plate-haptic intraocular lenses (IOLs) with different-sized positioning holes. Setting Eye Clinic of the Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz, Mainz, Germany. Methods In a prospective randomized study, 51 Chiroflex C10 and 56 Chiroflex C11 IOLs were implanted under standardized conditions by the same surgeon. The IOL position was documented at the end of surgery and by retroillumination on the first day and 5 months postoperatively. The positioning-hole area was evaluated by ultrasound biomicroscopy (50 MHz) 5 months postoperatively. Results One day postoperatively, no IOL in either group was decentered more than 1.0 mm. Aft…
Clinical magnification and residual refraction after implantation of a double intraocular lens system in patients with macular degeneration
2007
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of a standard double intraocular lens (IOL) system (IOL-Vip) in patients with low vision and central scotoma due to macular degeneration and assess the predictability of the residual refraction and magnification. Setting Ophthalmology Department, Hospital General Universitario, Valencia, Spain. Methods This interventional prospective noncomparative case series comprised 13 consecutive surgical procedures in 10 patients with central scotoma. Follow-up was 12 months. Evaluation included the difference between preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction, position of the IOLs, endothelial cell density, and occurrence of postope…
Prevention of hyperopic surprise after LASIK in patients with refractive multifocal intraocular lenses.
2011
Purpose. Three cases of patients who developed a similar hyperopic defect in refraction following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) after multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation are described. Methods. Ophthalmologic evaluation including refractive status, corrected and uncorrected visual acuity (both at far and near), and corneal topography in patients presenting similar hyperopic refractive surprise in one eye as a result of LASIK refinement of residual ametropia after refractive multifocal IOL implantation. Results. Laser in situ keratomileusis enhancement for residual ametropia of −1.00 to −1.50 D in patients with a prior implantation of refractive multifocal IOL resulted in a…
One-Year Outcomes with New-Generation Multifocal Intraocular Lenses
2007
Purpose: To compare new-generation multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with monofocal IOLs. Design: Randomized prospective clinical trial. Participants: Sixty-two consecutive patients with cataract, seen between January of 2005 and January of 2006 at the Department of Ophthalmology of Palermo University Hospital in Italy, were bilaterally implanted with monofocal (AR 40, Advanced Medical Optics [AMO], Santa Ana, CA; 15 patients), multifocal refractive (Array SA40N, AMO; 16 patients), multifocal refractive (ReZoom, AMO; 15 patients), or multifocal diffractive pupil-independent (Tecnis ZM900, AMO; 16 patients) IOLs. Intervention: Bimanual phacoemulsification. Main Outcome Measures: Primary o…
Capsule measuring ring to predict capsular bag diameter and follow its course after foldable intraocular lens implantation
2003
Purpose: To evaluate the extent of capsular bag shrinkage after cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and develop a regression formula to predict postoperative capsular bag size. Setting: Eye Hospital, Johannes Gutenberg-University, Mainz, Germany. Methods: The axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth, and corneal radius in 58 eyes were measured preoperatively. Cataract surgery was by phacoemulsification followed by implantation of a 3-piece, acrylic, posterior chamber IOL. The capsular bag diameter and anterior capsulorhexis were measured intraoperatively and 1 day and 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively using a Koch capsule measuring ring (HumanOptics). Results: The me…
