Purpose

To assess the refractive and visual outcomes of a monofocal, optimized, aspheric, intraocular lens (IOL) implanted in eyes with different degrees of corneal spherical aberration after cataract surgery.

Setting

Oftalvist, Valencia, Spain

Methods

This prospective study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital Clínico San Carlos and registered at the DRKS German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00032562). The inclusion criteria considered patients’ providing informed consent, age-related cataract patients, corneal astigmatism up to 1.00D, and IOL power to be implanted ranging from 0 to 34D. The exclusion criteria considered patients not able to/willing to give informed consent, irregular cornea, a history of previous corneal refractive surgery, ocular anomalies or pathologies that could reduce visual function or postoperative IOL stability.

Results

These are the preliminary results of a large study involving 55 eyes. All eyes were implanted with the CT LUCIA 621P IOL and analyzed at 3-months post-surgery. The main outcome measures were refractive error, corrected distance visual acuity, uncorrected distance visual acuity, corneal spherical aberration, photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity, and patient-reported outcome measures with the Catquest-9SF questionnaire. Eyes were categorized into 3 groups based on eye’s corneal spherical aberration (6-mm pupil): group A (0-0.2 mm), group B (>0.2-0.4 mm), and group C (>0.4-0.6 mm).

Conclusions

These preliminary outcomes show if different degrees of corneal spherical aberration may affect the visual performance of eyes implanted with the CT LUCIA 621P IOL after cataract surgery.
