Photoprotection and photoreception of intraocular lenses under xenon and white LED illumination.
2016
Objective. To analyze the photoprotection and phototransmission that various intraocular lenses (10Ls) provide under the illumination of a xenon (Xe) lamp and white LEDs (light emitting diode). Methods. The spectral transmission curves of six representative 10Ls were measured using a Perkin-Elmer Lambda 35 UV/VIS spectrometer. Various filtering simulations were performed using a Xe lamp and white LEDs. The spectral emissions of these lamps were measured with an ILT-950 spectroradiometer. Results. The 10Ls analyzed primarily show transmission of nearly 100% in the visible spectrum. In the ultraviolet (UV) region, the filters incorporated in the various 10Ls did not filter equally, and some o…
Optical quality of rotationally symmetrical contact lenses derived from their power profiles.
2017
To present a methodology for evaluating the optical quality of rotationally symmetrical contact lenses (CLs) from a single power profile.Simulated rotationally symmetrical power profiles corresponding to different CLs designs (monofocal, two-zone center-near bifocal, and four-zone center-distance bifocal) were used to calculate the wavefront error profile by means of numerical integration. Then, each lens wavefront error profile was spun around the center to obtain the lens wavefront error surface. From the surface, monochromatic optical transfer functions (OTF), simulated images and the visual Strehl ratio based on the OTF (VSOTF) were obtained for different distances and pupil sizes (3 an…
In vitro optical quality comparison of 2 trifocal intraocular lenses and 1 progressive multifocal intraocular lens.
2015
Purpose To evaluate the optical quality of 3 multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs): the Mini Well Ready progressive multifocal aspheric IOL, the AT LISA trifocal diffractive IOL, and the Finevision full diffractive trifocal IOL. Setting University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain. Design Experimental study. Methods An instrument designed for measuring real-time modulation transfer function (MTF) and IOL power was used to measure the optical quality of each IOL for 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm apertures. This instrument measures both sagittal and tangential MTFs. The optical quality of each IOL was evaluated with the MTF, through-focus MTF, defocus tolerance, Strehl ratio MTF, and relative percentage of lig…
Optical Quality Comparison of Conventional and Hole-Visian Implantable Collamer Lens at Different Degrees of Decentering
2012
To compare the optical quality of implantable Collamer lens (ICL) with and without central hole (Hole ICL and conventional ICL) at different degrees of decentering.Experimental laboratory investigation.Wavefront aberrations of the -3, -6, and -12 diopter (D) V4b and -3, -6, and -12 D V4c ICLs were measured in 3 conditions-centered and decentered 0.3 and 0.6 mm-at 3-mm and 4.5-mm pupils. The root mean square of total higher order aberrations, trefoil, coma, tetrafoil, secondary astigmatism, and spherical aberration were evaluated. In addition, point spread function and simulated retinal images of ICLs were calculated from the wavefront aberrations for each ICL and all conditions of decenteri…
Assessing the in vitro optical quality of presbyopic solutions based on the axial modulation transfer function.
2016
Purpose To present a metric for assessing the in vitro optical quality of rotationally symmetrical optical elements based on volume calculation under the surface defined by the axial modulation transfer function (MTF). Setting University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain. Design Experimental study. Methods The metric volume under the axial MTF was used to assess the optical quality of 2 rotationally symmetrical multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) within various defocus intervals (0.50 diopter [D], 0.75 D, and 1.00 D) and at various spatial frequency intervals (7.5 cycles per degree [cpd], 15.0 cpd, and 30.0 cpd). Results The far focus of the bifocal IOL yielded higher volume values at all spati…
Predictability of intraocular lens power calculation after small-incision lenticule extraction for myopia
2019
PURPOSE To evaluate and compare the predictability of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation after small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for myopia and myopic astigmatism. SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Philipps University of Marburg, Marburg, Germany. DESIGN Retrospective comparative case series. METHODS Preoperative evaluation included optical biometry using IOLMaster 500 and corneal tomography using Pentacam HR. The corneal tomography measurements were repeated at 3 months postoperatively. The change of spherical equivalent due to SMILE was calculated by the manifest refraction at corneal plane (SMILE-Dif). A theoretical model, involving the virtual implantation of the same…
Residual astigmatism produced by toric intraocular lens rotation.
2010
Purpose To analyze changes in the eye’s refractive properties when a toric intraocular lens (IOL) rotates. Setting Fundacion Oftalmologica del Mediterraneo, Valencia, Spain. Design Experimental study. Methods The matrix definition of astigmatism was used in this theoretical study and compared with another vector representation. Two methods were compared: (1) The cylinder, C, resulting from the addition of 2 cylinders C1 and C2 whose axes form an angle a, is obtained by the addition of 2 vectors of values C1 and C2 forming an angle 2a; (2) the power matrix, F, of a thin astigmatic dioptric system that decomposes naturally into 3 orthogonal components: the purely spherical part Fnes, the orth…
Lateral magnification matrix from the dioptric power matrix formalism in the paraxial case.
2012
Background Previous studies have highlighted that power matrices fully characterize the concept of dioptric power of any astigmatic surface. Thus, the basic equations in physiological optics can be generalized using the matrix formalism of the dioptric power. Among others, lateral magnification has also been interpreted as a matrix but mainly concerning magnification modification induced by spectacle correction of refractive error. Purpose To provide a fresh look into a novel paraxial formulation for the assessment of the lateral magnification using power matrices and in presence of astigmatism for thin and thick imaging systems in general. Methods Linear optics provides the frame to genera…
Correlation between optics quality of multifocal intraocular lenses and visual acuity
2009
Purpose To study the relationship between the optics quality of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) and distance-corrected near, intermediate, and distance visual acuity to determine the degree to which optics quality must change to produce a significant difference in visual acuity. Setting Fundacion Oftalmologica del Mediterraneo, Valencia, Spain. Methods Monocular distance-corrected visual acuity (decimal and logMAR) was measured at 4 m, 70 cm, and 30 cm under photopic and mesopic conditions in eyes with 1 of 3 multifocal IOL models. Visual acuity versus the “average modulation” of the IOL was assessed. Results The pupil diameter and patient age were similar between the 3 IOL groups (20 …
Lens and Dual Lens Models
2019
This chapter presents variants of Brunswik’s lens model aimed to understand whether, when, and why trait judgments are more or less accurate. After outlining the basic concepts of lens models, it describes exemplary studies that have applied the lens model to unravel personality expression and impression formation processes that lead to more or less accurate judgments. Next, it gives an overview of factors that can influence the accuracy of trait judgments and explains these accuracy moderators within the lens model framework. It then describes an extension of the lens model, the dual lens model, that differentiates more controlled versus more automatic aspects on all levels of the lens mod…
