Purpose
To present clinical data on visual acuity, defocuscurve and photopsia profile of the new Tecnis SymfonyTM OptiblueTM intra ocular IOL (J&J Vision)
Setting
1Department of Ophthalmology, Elisabeth TweeSteden Hospital, Tilburg and 2Iris Eye Clinics, Boxtel, The Netherlands
Methods
34 eyes of 17 patients have been implanted bilaterally with a Tecnis SymfonyTM OptiblueTM intra ocular IOL. Outcomes measures include monocular visual acuity (target emmetropia), UDVA (4M), UIVA (66 cm), UNVA (40 cm), defocus curve, photopsia profile (MacAllinden Questionnaire) and spectacle dependency
Results
UDVA: 1.01 (± 0.19), UIVA: 0.94 (± 0.17), UNVA: 0.67 (± 0.15), Broad Defocuscurve : Max VA: 1.2, S=0 Diopter and VA: 0.69, S= -2 Diopter. Photic Phenomena (Severity Scale 0-1-2-3) : Halo : 70% (0)-18% (1)-6%(2)-6%(3), Glare : 26% (0), 41% (1), 34% (2), 0% (3), Starburst : 29% (0), 29% (1), 35% (2), 0% (3), Spectacle Dependency : 17% for near occasionally 17% for near often, 6% for distance occasionally
Conclusions
The new Tecnis SymfonyTM OptiblueTM IOL shows slight improved visual acuity values and enhanced defocus profile compared to its predecessor Tecnis SymfonyTM IOL. Less frequency of photic phenomena such as glare, halo and starburst were perceived. Low dependency on spectacles for near and seldom for distance
