Clear Lens Extraction with Multifocal Apodized Diffractive Intraocular Lens Implantation
2007
Purpose To assess efficacy, safety, predictability, and stability after clear lens extraction (CLE) with multifocal diffractive intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Design Prospective, nonrandomized, masked observational case series (self-controlled). Participants Two hundred twenty-four eyes of 112 consecutive patients after CLE with bilateral AcrySof ReSTOR Natural IOL implantation. Eyes were divided into myopic (mean spherical equivalent [SE], −6.01±2.71 diopters [D]) and hyperopic (mean SE, +3.86±2.52 D) groups. Methods Monocular and binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (VA), best-corrected distance VA, uncorrected distance near VA, and best distance-corrected near VA were recor…
Refractive lens exchange with an array multifocal intraocular lens.
2002
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate safety, efficacy, predictability, stability, complications, and patient satisfaction after refractive lens exchange (clear lens extraction) followed by posterior chamber implantation of a multifocal intraocular lens (IOL). METHODS: Fifty eyes of 25 patients (mean age 51 years, range 44 to 62 years) with preoperative spherical equivalent refraction between -15.50 and +5.75 D and cylinder between 0 and 1.50 D underwent bilateral implantation of a zonal progressive multifocal IOL (Array, AMO). RESULTS: Eyes were divided into group A (n=24; myopia, average preoperative spherical equivalent refraction -7.11 ± 3.25 D (-1.75 to -15.50 D), and group B (n=…
