Clinical Performance of New Enhanced Monofocal Intraocular Lenses: Comparison of Hydrophobic C-loop and Hydrophilic Plate-Haptic Platform.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) represent a new type of lens, which should lead to a very good distance vision similar to monofocal IOLs and an improved intermediate vision without increasing the risk for photic phenomena.

Methods

The aim of this clinical observation/registry study was to directly compare two different IOL platforms (hydrophilic acrylic L-333 (group A) vs hydrophobic acrylic AN6Q (group B)) with the same enhanced monofocal optic principle but different material and haptic design in clinical routine. A total of 102 cataract cases (51:51) were included in the study. Groups A and B were similar regarding demographics, age (71.6 ± 9 years for L-333 and 73.6 ± 8 years for AN6Q) and their calculated IOL power (20.9 ± 2.0 D for L-333 and 2
