Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to assess the visual outcome after the combined binocular implantation of +2.5 D and +3.0 D apodized diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Binocular cataract surgery with phacoemulsification and implantation of multifocal intraocular lenses
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Bifocal multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOL) are effective in achieving good uncorrected visual acuities in the distance and the near. However, the intermediate vision is of increasing relevance for everyday's life. Several multifocal intraocular lenses have been developed to improvement intermediate vision. Nonetheless, those systems still possess adverse photic effects and do not garantuee spectacle independence. Therefore, the combination of a lower-addition bifocal intraocular lense in the distance-dominant eye with a higher-addition bifocal intraocular lense in the fellow-eye might be a promising approach to address these drawbacks of current binocular and trifocal intraocular lenses.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Visual acuities in the far, intermediate and near [1 month]

      Visual acuities are tested under photopic conditions at 5 m, intermediate (80 cm) and patient-preferred near distance (≈ 40 cm).

    2. Visual acuities in the far, intermediate and near [3 months]

      Visual acuities are tested under photopic conditions at 5 m, intermediate (80 cm) and patient-preferred near distance (≈ 40 cm).

    3. Mesopic vision [1 month]

      Mesopic visual acuities are tested under high-contrast, low-contrast and low-contrast with glare.

    4. Mesopic vision [3 months]

      Mesopic visual acuities are tested under high-contrast, low-contrast and low-contrast with glare.

    5. Scotopic contrast sensitivity [1 month]

      Scotopic contrast sensitivity are tested at 0.1 cd/m2, 0.032 cd/m2 and 0.1 cd/m2 with glare.

    6. Scotopic contrast sensitivity [3 months]

      Scotopic contrast sensitivity are tested at 0.1 cd/m2, 0.032 cd/m2 and 0.1 cd/m2 with glare.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Spectacle independence in the far, intermediate and near [3 months]

      Spectacle independence as stated by the patient.
