Contrast Sensitivity and Patient Reported Outcomes After Bilateral Implantation of a Bi-Aspheric Hydrophobic Trifocal Diffractive Intraocular Lens.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To assess contrast sensitivity and patient reported outcomes after uncomplicated cataract surgery with a new bi-aspheric diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.

Methods

Twenty-five patients who underwent bilateral implantation with the Asqelio Trifocal TFLIO130C IOL (AST Products Inc., Billerica, MA, USA) were analyzed at 6 months post-surgery. Binocular contrast sensitivity with and without glare was measured under photopic conditions (85 cd/m²) and mesopic conditions (3 cd/m²). Patients were asked to complete the Catquest-9SF patient outcomes questionnaire and a visual symptoms questionnaire.

Results

Photopic contrast sensitivity values were either within or above normal levels without glare; when glare was induced, th
