Metric-Based Visual Acuity and Defocus Curve Simulation of Two Multifocal Intraocular Lens Models.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To predict clinical defocus curve performance of the PanOptix intraocular lens (IOL) model TFNT00, a population-based image quality metric was applied to a pseudophakic eye model.

Methods

Visual acuity (VA) was simulated using a 2-surface reduced eye model. For each virtual eye, the derived corneal surface was combined with scaled IOL surface. Corneal power and aberration, anterior chamber depth, and pupil size were iterated using a Monte-Carlo approach. Image quality of the IOLs was assessed using the total aberration map to compute the amplitude point spread function. A diffraction-normalized light-in-the-bucket metric was calculated for each virtual eye for defocuses from -3.5 D to +1.0 D (step size 0.25 D) and transformed to VAs and defocus curves.
