Visual and optical performance with hybrid multifocal intraocular lenses
2010
During the past years, the wish to become independent of spectacles has been growing among cataract and presbyopic patients due to many factors, such as the increase in near visual demands, the aesthetic need for a spectacle-free image and ageing of refractive surgery patients, among others. This review assesses recently published studies that analyse visual and optical performance through different metrics of eyes implanted with multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs), particularly hybrid IOL designs. The published evidence suggests that hybrid multifocal IOLs provide very good outcomes in a number of visual and optical performance parameters. Patients implanted with this type of IOL obtain a…
Effect of sport-tinted contact lenses for contrast enhancement on retinal straylight measurements
2008
PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of two tinted contact lenses (CL) designed for outdoor sports activity on the psychometric determination of retinal straylight using the compensation comparison method. METHODS: Thirteen emmetropic subjects were randomly fitted with two different tinted Nike Maxsight (Bausch & Lomb, Rochester, NY, USA) CL in one eye, while the contralateral eye was fitted with a clear lens made of the same material (Optima 38, Bausch & Lomb). Three valid straylight measurements were taken on each eye before and a few minutes after lens insertion, when lens stabilization had occurred. RESULTS: The subjects' mean straylight values were 0.90 +/- 0.09 at baseline and 0.95 +/- …
Retinal Straylight Before and After Penetrating Keratoplasty in an Eye with a Post-Herpetic Corneal Scar
2008
Objetivo: Estudio in vivo de la luz dispersa que alcanza la retina en un paciente antes y despues de someterse a una queratoplastia penetrante (o sus siglas en ingles, PKP). Metodos: En un paciente varon de 65 anos con una ulcera corneal herpetica se midio la proporcion de luz dispersa que alcanza la retina tanto antes como despues de una PKP, utilizando para ello un metodo psicometrico denominado "de comparacion por compensacion" («Compensation comparison method», C-Quant straylightmeter, Oculus GmbH, Alemania). Resultados: La cantidad de luz dispersa que alcanza la retina medida antes de la cirugia fue elevada en comparacion con los valores obtenidos en estudios previos en sujetos normale…
The effect of blue-light-blocking lenses on retinal straylight
2021
Sometimes yellow-tinted lenses are recommended to help improve visual quality. As yellow lenses filter blue light, it is believed that their use could decrease the intensity of scattered light in the eye (retinal straylight). However, the results of some studies have contradicted this assumption (Van Os et al. 2017). Currently various nontinted blue-light-blocking lenses are used to protect the eyes from short-wavelength light. The objective of this study was to determine whether blue-light-blocking lenses affect the levels of retinal straylight in the eye. A straylight meter (C-Quant, Oculus) was used for retinal straylight measurements. The measurements were performed under four different…
