Purpose
To assess clinical outcomes, quality of vision and patient satisfaction in patients bilaterally implanted with a toric continuous transitional focus presbyopia correcting intraocular lens (IOL).
Setting
Prospective multicentric study
Methods
This prospective study included 21 astigmatic patients (42 eyes) bilaterally implanted with the Precizon Presbyopic Toric®IOL (Ophtec BV, The Netherlands). Patients were evaluated one and three months after surgery. Three-months follow-up data included monocular corrected and uncorrected distance visual acuity, monocular distance corrected intermediate and near visual acuity (DCIVA and DCNVA), decimal values. Manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE), and refractive sphere and cylinder, were measured as a secondary outcome parameter. Quality of vision and patient satisfaction was inquired by the means of questionnaires. Patients were evaluated one and three months after surgery.
Results
Mean age was 61.5± 9.03 years. Three months after surgery, MRSE improved from -1.51D±4.45D to -0.35D±0.49D (p<0,01). Mean sphere and refractive cylinder were -0,17±0,48D and -0,35±0,43D respectively. Mean monocular corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) improved from 0.69±0.21 to 1.05±0.16 (p<0,01). Mean monocular DCIVA and DCNVA were respectively 0.91±0.15 and 0.78±0.12. No patient required distance glasses. No patient required IOL realignment during the postoperative follow-up. Data from questionnaires showed only 16% of patients have experienced halos or glare often/very often, 33% occasionally and 50% not at all. 76,5% and 11,8% of the patients were very and quite satisfied with the overall outcome of the procedure respectively.
Conclusions
Precizon Presbyopic Toric IOL provides excellent distance and intermediate visual acuity and a good functional near vision. It also provides good rotation stability. Patients reported low levels of photic phenomena and good percentage of overall satisfaction.
