purpose : the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of misalignment (tilt & decentration) of iols in cataract surgery using liu-brennan optical eye model in a simulation. methods : a phantom with the real eye parameters –liu-brennan model– and tecnis z9000 iol were used for simulation. results : results showed that with 0.4 mm decentration and more the modulation transfer function (mt...

PURPOSE To study the effect of cataract surgery through 3.2 mm superior incisions on corneal aberrations with 2 types of monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with an aspherical design. SETTING Instituto de Optica, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, and Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Madrid, Spain. METHODS Corneal topography of 43 eyes was obtained before and after small corneal incisi...

AIM To evaluate the visual function after bilateral implantation of aspheric diffractive multifocal Tecnis ZMA00, aspheric monofocal ZA9003 versus spherical monofocal Akreos Adapt intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS Tecnis ZMA00, Tecnis ZA9003 or Akreos Adapt IOLs were bilaterally implanted in 180 eyes from 90 patients. The following parameters were assessed 3 months postoperatively: monocular...

PURPOSE To evaluate mesopic visual acuity and visual quality as measured by objective scatter index (OSI) in pseudophakic eyes with long-term follow-up after implantation of hydrophobic acrylic lenses made from two different lens materials. SETTING This study was carried out in a private clinic. DESIGN This study was an observational cohort study. METHODS This pilot study included 181 eye...

PURPOSE To compare spherical aberration and contrast sensitivity function following implantation of four different foldable posterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs), namely Sensar, Akreos AO, Tecnis, and AcrySof IQ. METHODS In this randomized clinical trial, 68 eyes of 68 patients with senile cataracts underwent phacoemulsification and IOL implantation with Sensar (n=17), Akreos AO (n=17),...

Purpose: To compare the clinical performance, contrast sensitivity and optical quality, following implantation of CT LUCIA 611 P TECNIS-1 monofocal IOLs cataract surgery. Design-Prospective, interventional, non-randomized comparative study. Setting- Nethradhama Super Speciality Eye Hospital, Bangalore, India. Methods: Eligible patients, undergoing phacoemulsification received with 611P or TECNI...

PURPOSE To evaluate intraindividual visual acuity, wavefront errors and modulation transfer functions in patients implanted with two diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses. METHODS This prospective study examined 40 eyes of 20 cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification and implantation of a spherical multifocal ReSTOR intraocular lens in one eye and an aspheric Tecnis ZM900 multif...

Purpose: To compare the impact of induced astigmatism with four different types of multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs). Method: Prospective, comparative, interventional, mono-centered study, including 80 eyes of patients with implantation of four different MIOLs: AcrySof ReSTOR +2.5 D (20 eyes), AcrySof ReSTOR +3.0 D (20 eyes), AcrySof Panoptix (20 eyes) (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth,...

Background The purpose of this prospective, randomised study was to interocularly compare the visual performance after implantation of two different toric IOLs with different haptic design. Methods 59 subjects with corneal astigmatism greater than 1.25 diopter (D) were implanted with an AT TORBI 709M IOL (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) in one eye and with a Tecnis toric aspheric IOL (Abbot Medical Op...

SYNOPSIS The aspheric, one-piece design of the Tecnis® ZCB00 intraocular lens provided higher mesopic contrast sensitivity and relatively constant refraction at different pupil sizes compared to the Sensar® AR40e. PURPOSE Comparing the impact on functional vision of the aspheric Tecnis® ZCB00 one-piece lens compared to the spherical Sensar® AR40e three-piece lens. SETTING National Eye Hospi...
