Purpose

To evaluate post-operative refraction and patient-reported outcomes following cataract surgery with implantation of the PureSee intraocular lens, and to assess patient satisfaction, functional vision, and dysphotopsia.

Setting

Single-surgeon clinic in South Wales with retrospective analyses conducted for cataract surgery.

Methods

A retrospective review was performed of patients undergoing cataract surgery with implantation of the PureSee intraocular lens (DEN00V, DET). Post-operative unaided distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity were analysed. Subjective patient-reported outcomes included satisfaction with surgical outcome, willingness to repeat surgery, functional vision at different distances, and dysphotopsia symptoms (halos, glare, starbursts). Descriptive analysis was performed using cumulative distributions and reported outcome frequencies.

Results

We analysed127 eyes implanted with the PureSee lens. Among patients with recorded patient-reported outcomes, willingness to repeat surgery was high, indicating strong overall satisfaction. Dysphotopsias were infrequent, with the majority of responses describing symptoms as absent or only some of the time. Glare was only reported in 6% and with mild severity, and 4% reported mild haloes. Unaided vision was satisfactory for distance and intermediate tasks, with variable reliance on reading glasses for near activities. Spectacle independence was high, with 91.5% (43/47) never requiring glasses for distance vision and 85.1% (40/47) for intermediate vision. For near vision 91.3% (42/46) needed reading glasses never or only some of the time.

Conclusions

In this real-world audit, implantation of the PureSee presbyopia-correcting intraocular lens was associated with favourable visual outcomes and high patient satisfaction. Reported dysphotopsia was low among responding patients. These findings support the use of PureSee as a presbyopia-correcting option in appropriately selected patients, while highlighting the importance of systematic capture of patient-reported outcomes.
