Abstract
PURPOSE: To compare the 12-month postoperative quality of vision and visual performance of 2 different refractive rotationally asymmetric multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs). SETTING: Cathedral Eye Clinic, Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. METHODS: Refractive lens exchange (RLE) patients were divided into 2 groups. Group A comprised eyes receiving a Lentis Mplus LS-312 MF30 IOL and Group B, eyes receiving a Lenstec SBL-3 IOL. Refraction, uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuities, uncorrected intermediate (UIVA) and near (UNVA) visual acuities, distance-corrected intermediate and near (DCNVA) visual acuities, and quality of vision were evaluated preoperatively and up to 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS: Each group comprised 90 eyes. Both groups had a high level of quality of vision 12 months postoperatively with no significant difference between the 2 groups (P = .919). There was no significant between-group difference in mean monocular and binocular UDVA, monocular UIVA, or monocular UNVA. Group B had statistically significantly better mean monocular DCNVA (P = .049), binocular UNVA (P = .011), and binocular DCNVA (P = .035). Group B had a higher percentage of complete spectacle independence. CONCLUSIONS: Both refractive rotationally asymmetric multifocal IOLs provided an excellent level of quality of vision 12 months postoperatively. Both IOL models restored distance, intermediate, and near visual function; however the IOLs in Group B provided better near visual performance.
