Purpose
To investigate visual performances after unilateral implantation of an enlarged depth-of-focus intraocular lens in patients with unilateral cataracts with transparent crystalline in the other eye.
Setting
Department of ophthalmology of hospital Quironsalud Marbella
Methods
In this prospective study, uneventful phacoemulsification and Luxsmart (Bausch+Lomb) intraocular lens implantation were performed in 5 eyes of 5 patients with unilateral cataracts in one eye and transparent crystaline in the second eye. At postoperative 1, 4, and 12 weeks, the logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution visual acuity at far, intermediate, and near distances and the spherical equivalent in manifest refraction, Modulation transfer function ( MTF), and automated refraction were measured. A questionnaire was used to investigate glare, spectacle dependency, and satisfaction at 12 weeks.
Results
Visual performances were not significantly different between unilateral implanted EDOF lens and non-operated eye.The satisfaction levels were high in unilateral cataracts patients with low spectacle dependence and no binocular disparity in unilateral surgery patients.
Conclusions
Unilateral implantation of the enlarged depth-of-focus intraocular lens seems to be effective in improving visual performances in patients with unilateral cataracts.
Therefore, Luxsmart (Bausch+Lomb) IOL can be effectively used in patients with unilateral cataracats with or without presbyopia.
