Visual Outcomes After Cataract Surgery: Multifocal Versus Monofocal Intraocular Lenses.
PURPOSE To evaluate visual outcomes, spectacle independence, and quality of life among nonastigmatic and astigmatic patients who received AcrySof IQ ReSTOR toric or nontoric multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) (Alcon Laboratories, Fort Worth, TX) compared with those who received commercially available nontoric monofocal IOLs after bilateral cataract removal. METHODS This randomized, patient-...
متن کاملCost of cataract surgery after implantation of three intraocular lenses
BACKGROUND Posterior capsule opacification is one of the most frequent adverse events following cataract surgery. This manuscript reports the lifetime cost of complications linked to posterior capsule opacification using three types of intraocular lens with square edges. METHODS Costs were estimated from a retrospective study of patients who underwent cataract surgery and data from the litera...
متن کاملVisual performance of Acrysof ReSTOR compared with a monofocal intraocular lens following implantation in cataract surgery
The aim of this study was to compare the visual performance of Acrysof ReSTOR and Acrysof Natural intraocular lenses (IOLs) following cataract surgery. A randomized prospective study was performed in which 64 eyes (51 patients) were divided randomly into two groups. Monofocal IOLs (Acrysof Natural) were implanted into 34 eyes (27 patients) and multifocal IOLs (Acrysof ReSTOR) were implanted int...
متن کاملIntra-Ocular Lenses for Cataract Patients
1989 was the 40th anniversary of intra-ocular lens implantation. Harold Ridley performed the first implant for cataract surgery in November 1949 at St. Thomas' Hospital. The idea developed on the following lines: It was known that trauma from plastic imbedded in the eye was inert, a situation seen mainly in air pilots who had suffered injuries from shattered windscreens. But the seed was sown b...
متن کاملMultifocal versus monofocal intraocular lenses after cataract extraction.
BACKGROUND Good unaided distance visual acuity is now a realistic expectation following cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Near vision however still requires additional refractive power usually in the form of reading glasses. Multiple optic (multifocal) IOLs are available which claim to allow good vision at a range of distances. It is unclear whether this benefit outweigh...
