Purpose
The aim of this poster is to evaluate the visual performance of new generation IOL for enhanced monovision
Setting
CAMO-Centro Ambrosiano Oftalmico located in Milan, Italy
Methods
The defocus curve is performed by adding on trial frame from +1.00 D to -3.00 D lens (in steps of 0.50 D), recording the visual acuity with the different lenses. This procedure is performed both monocularly and binocularly and data are plotted into a grafic with visual acuity values on Y axis and lens dioptric power on X axis
Results
This type of IOL provides distance vision comparabile to a standard monofocal IOL and a good vision up to intermediate/near distance (depending on myopic target in non dominant eye)
Conclusions
The defocus curve clearly show the wide depth of focus extension provided by this new design IOL, that reduce spectacle dependence for implanted patients
