Factors for good near and distance visual outcomes of multifocal intraocular lens with inferior segmental near add

Pupil size measurements with a multifunctional aberrometer/coherence interferometer/tomographer and two infrared-based pupillometers

PURPOSE

To compare precision of pupil size measurements of a multifunctional device (Pentacam AXL Wave [Pentacam]) and 2 infrared-based pupillometers (PupilX, Colvard) and to compare repeatability of Pentacam and PupilX.

SETTING

Department of Ophthalmology, Goethe-University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

DESIGN

Prospective, comparative trial.

METHODS

Pupil diameter of healthy eyes was measured with Colvard once and Pentacam without glare (WO) and with glare (WG), PupilX in 0, 1, and 16 lux 3 times each. In a second series, measurements with Pentacam WO and PupilX in 0.06 and 0.12 lux were assessed.

RESULTS

36 eyes of participants aged 21 to 63 years were included. Mean pupil diameter was 6.05 mm with Colvard, 5.79 mm (first series), 5.50 mm (second series) with Pentacam WO, 3.42 mm WG, 7.26 mm PupilX in 0, 4.67 mm 1, 3.66 mm 16, 6.82 mm in 0.06, and 6.39 mm in 0.12 lux. Measurements with Pentacam WO were significantly different to PupilX in 0, 0.06, 0.12, and 1 lux (all P < .001), but not to Colvard ( P = .086). Pupil size measured with Pentacam WG and PupilX in 16 lux was not significantly different ( P = .647). Consecutive measurements with Pentacam WO and WG had mean SD of 0.23 mm and 0.20 mm, respectively, and with PupilX 0.11 in 0, 0.24 mm 1, and 0.20 mm in 16 lux.

CONCLUSIONS

Pentacam provided good assessment of pupil size but was not equivalent to PupilX in low lighting conditions. Repeatability was more favorable for Pentacam.

Visual Outcomes According to Age After Bilateral Implantation of Trifocal Intraocular Lenses

PURPOSE

To investigate the effect of age on visual outcomes after the bilateral implantation of trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs).

METHODS

A total of 290 patients (580 eyes) who underwent bilateral implantation of a trifocal IOL were enrolled in this retrospective case-control study. Patients were divided into five age groups: 45 to 49, 50 to 54, 55 to 59, 60 to 64, and 65 years and older. Postoperative monocular uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA, respectively), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), binocular distance-corrected defocus curve, spectacle dependence for near and distance vision, and patient satisfaction scores were compared among the five groups.

RESULTS

The 45 to 49 years group had significantly better mean UDVA (0.02 ± 0.05 logMAR) and UNVA (0.02 ± 0.04 logMAR) than the 65 years and older group (0.06 ± 0.09 and 0.09 ± 0.09 logMAR; P = .029 and P < .001; respectively). However, no significant differences were observed in the mean CDVA among the groups. Binocular visual performance of the 45 to 49 years group was better than that of the 65 years and older age group at defocuses of +1.00, +0.50, -1.00, and -3.00 D. No significant differences were observed in spectacle dependence for near and distance vision or in patient satisfaction scores among the five groups.

CONCLUSIONS

Bilateral implantation of trifocal IOLs can provide excellent near and distance vision in both young and older patients. However, UDVA and UNVA revealed considerably worse results in the older group, although no significant difference was observed in CDVA and postoperative refractive errors by age.

Modified intraocular lens power selection method according to biometric subgroups Eom IOL power calculator

This study evaluates the accuracy of a newly developed intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation method that applies four different IOL power calculation formulas according to 768 biometric subgroups based on keratometry, anterior chamber depth, and axial length. This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in at Korea University Ansan Hospital. A total of 1600 eyes from 1600 patients who underwent phacoemulsification and a ZCB00 IOL in-the-bag implantation were divided into two datasets: a reference dataset (1200 eyes) and a validation dataset (400 eyes). Using the reference dataset and the results of previous studies, the Eom IOL power calculator was developed using 768 biometric subgroups. The median absolute errors (MedAEs) and IOL Formula Performance Indexes (FPIs) of the Barrett Universal II, Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Ladas Super, SRK/T, and Eom formulas using the 400-eye validation dataset were compared. The MedAE of the Eom formula (0.22 D) was significantly smaller than that of the other four formulas, except for the Barrett Universal II and Ladas Super formulas (0.24 D and 0.23 D, respectively). The IOL FPI of the Eom formula was 0.553, which ranked first, followed by the Ladas Super (0.474), Barrett Universal II (0.470), Holladay 1 (0.444), Hoffer Q (0.396), Haigis (0.392), and SRK/T (0.361) formulas. In conclusion, the Eom IOL power calculator developed in this study demonstrated similar or slightly better accuracy than the Barrett Universal II and Ladas Super formulas and was superior to the four traditional IOL power calculation formulas.

Four-flanged polypropylene optic piercing technique for scleral fixation of multifocal intraocular lens

BACKGROUND

To evaluate the feasibility of creating flanges using an optic piercing technique with a 6 - 0 polypropylene monofilament for scleral fixation of dislocated one-piece diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs).

STUDY DESIGN

Experimental study and case series.

SUBJECTS

Optical bench test and eyes with IOL dislocation.

METHODS

Two separate 6 - 0 polypropylenes were penetrated twice at the opposite peripheral optic of the TECNIS Synergy IOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision). The root mean square of the modulation transfer function (MTFRMS), at between + 1.00 and - 4.00 D of defocus, was measured in the TECNIS Synergy IOL both with and without optic piercing in the optical bench study. This case series included three eyes from two patients who underwent scleral-fixation of multifocal IOLs using the four-flanged polypropylene optic piercing technique. The postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) at 4 m, the uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) at 40 cm, and IOL centration were evaluated.

RESULTS

The optical bench test showed no differences in MTFRMS values measured in the TECNIS Synergy IOL, either with or without optic piercing at all defocuses. In all three case series, the postoperative CDVA at 4 m was 20/20 and UNVA at 40 cm was J1. Postoperative anterior segment photographs showed good centration of IOLs in all cases.

CONCLUSION

The four-flanged polypropylene optic piercing technique for multifocal IOL scleral fixation can provide excellent clinical outcomes and IOL stability after surgery without diminishing the performance of the multifocal IOLs.

Outcomes of a Refractive Segmented Bifocal Intraocular Lens with a Lower Near Addition

Purpose

To evaluate clinical and subjective outcomes of a segmented bifocal IOL with a 2.0 D near addition.

Patients and Methods

Retrospective analyses of patients who had undergone refractive lens exchange with bilateral implantation of the SBL-2 IOL (Lenstec, Inc., Christ Church, Barbados) were performed. The number of patients included in the study was 389 (778 eyes). Refractive, visual and patient-reported outcomes were presented for the last available visit (mean follow-up 2.05 ± 1.33 months).

Results

The percentage of eyes within ±0.50D and ±1.00D of emmetropia was 82.5% (642/778) and 97.8% (761/778), respectively. The mean uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (66 cm) of the last available visit was 0.08 ± 0.15 logMAR monocularly and 0.04 ± 0.14 logMAR binocularly. The mean monocular and binocular uncorrected near visual acuity (40 cm) were 0.30 ± 0.15 logMAR and 0.24 ± 0.14 logMAR, respectively. Of all patients, 97.2% (378/389) claimed never to use any correction for distance vision, while 93.1% (362/389) of patients did not require any correction for near vision. The mean scores for visual phenomena (on the scale from 1 – no difficulty to 7 – severe difficulty) were 1.8 ± 1.3, 1.7 ± 1.2, 1.7 ± 1.2 and 1.6 ± 1.2 for glare, halo, starburst, and ghosting/double vision, respectively.

Conclusion

Despite the lower near addition of SBL-2 segmented bifocal IOL, patients achieved reasonable rates of spectacle independence and a low incidence of visual phenomena.

Comparison of visual outcomes after two types of mix-and-match implanted trifocal extended-depth-of-focus and trifocal intraocular lenses

PURPOSE

To compare visual outcomes between two types of mix-and-match implanted trifocal extended-depth-of-focus (EDoF) and trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs).

METHODS

A total of 212 eyes of 106 subjects with mix-and-match implanted FineVision Triumf and FineVision HP IOLs (Triumf-HP group) and 212 eyes of 106 subjects with mix-and-match implanted Zeiss AT LARA and AT LISA IOLs (AT LARA-LISA group) were enrolled in this retrospective case-control study. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), and binocular distance-corrected defocus curves were measured between 6 and 10 weeks after cataract surgery.

RESULTS

There was no significant difference in UDVA among the four IOLs. UNVA was the best in eyes with the FineVision HP IOL (0.04 ± 0.06 logMAR), followed by eyes with the AT LISA IOL (0.07 ± 0.07 logMAR), the FineVision Triumf IOL (0.09 ± 0.09 logMAR), and the AT LARA IOL (0.11 ± 0.08 logMAR), respectively. The AT LARA-LISA group had better visual acuity than the Triumf-HP group between - 1.00 D and - 1.50 D of defocus, and the Triumf-HP group had better visual acuity than the AT LARA-LISA group between - 3.00 D and - 4.00 D of defocus.

CONCLUSION

Mix-and-match implantation of trifocal EDoF and trifocal IOLs provided good visual outcomes in far, intermediate, and near distances. The mix-and-match implantation of Triumf-HP IOLs led to better visual outcomes in near vision, while that of the AT LARA-LISA IOLs led to better visual outcomes in intermediate vision.

Algorithmic intraocular lens power calculation formula selection by keratometry, anterior chamber depth and axial length

PURPOSE

To compare the prediction accuracy of algorithmic intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formula selection method using conventional formulas (Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, SRK/T and/or Barrett Universal II) based on keratometry (K), anterior chamber depth (ACD) and axial length (AL).

METHODS

A total of 1653 patients (1653 eyes) implanted with Tecnis ZCB00 IOL during cataract surgery were enrolled in this study. Intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas with a small absolute value in the sum of the area under the curve measured by K, ACD and AL subgroup were selected to calculate IOL power in the relevant biometry subgroup. The median absolute error (MedAE) calculated by the Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, SRK/T and Barrett Universal II formulas individually was compared to that calculated by the algorithmic selection method using four formulas, Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1 and SRK/T, or five formulas when Barrett is included.

RESULTS

The MedAE was 0.27 D in the Haigis, 0.30 D in the Hoffer Q, 0.27 D in the Holladay 1, 0.29 D in the SRK/T and 0.26 D in the Barrett Universal II formulas. The MedAEs determined by the algorithmic selection method using four (019 D) and five (0.21 D) formulas were significantly lower than those by the conventional IOL power calculation formulas.

CONCLUSIONS

The IOL power calculation formula selection method by biometry subgroup combined with biometric parameters K, ACD and AL may offer a more superior postoperative refractive error prediction in cataract surgery.

The relationship between angle kappa and astigmatism after phacoemulsification with implanting of spherical and aspheric intraocular lens

Purpose:

To determine the significance of any association between either change in angle kappa (K°) or the rectilinear displacement (L, mm) of the first Purkinje image relative to the pupil center and unexpected changes in astigmatism after phacoemulsification.

Methods:

Orbscan II (Bausch and Lomb) measurements were taken at 1, 2, and 3 months after unremarkable phacoemulsification in patients implanted with spherical (group 1, SA60AT, Alcon) or aspheric (group 2, SN60WF, Alcon) nontoric IOLs. The outputs were used to calculate L. Astigmatism, measured by autorefractometry and subjective refraction, was subjected to vector analysis (polar and cartesian formats) to determine the actual change induced over the periods 1–2 and 2–3 months postop.

Results:

Chief findings were that the mean (n, ±SD, 95%CI) values for L over each period were as follows: Group 1, 0.407 (38, ±0.340, 0.299–0.521), 0.315 (23, ±0.184, 0.335–0.485); Group 2, 0.442 (45, ±0.423, 0.308–0.577), 0.372 (26, ±0.244, 0.335–0.485). Differences between groups were not significant. There was a significant linear relationship between (A) the change in K (ΔK = value at 1 month-value at 2 months) and K at 1 month (x), where ΔK =0.668-3.794X (r = 0.812, n = 38, P = <0.001) in group 1 and ΔK = 0.263x -1.462 (r = 0.494, n = 45, P = 0.002) in group 2, (B) L and the J₄₅ vector describing the actual change in astigmatism between 1 and 2 months in group 2, where J₄₅ (by autorefractometry) =0.287L-0.160 (r = 0.487, n = 38, P = 0.001) and J₄₅ (by subjective refraction) =0.281L-0.102 (r = 0.490, n = 38, P = 0.002), and (C) J₄₅ and ΔK between 2 and 3 months in group 2, where J₄₅ (by subjective refraction) =0.086ΔK-0.063 (r = 0.378, n = 26, P = 0.020).

Conclusion:

Changes in the location of the first Purkinje image relative to the pupil center after phacoemulsification contributes to changes in refractive astigmatism. However, the relationship between the induced change in astigmatism resulting from a change in L is not straightforward.

Scleral fixation of subluxated or dislocated multifocal and multifocal toric intraocular lenses

PURPOSE

To evaluate the feasibility of scleral fixation of subluxated or dislocated multifocal/multifocal toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) to rescue the IOL and restore both near and far vision.

METHOD

A total of 18 eyes of 17 patients who underwent transscleral or intrascleral fixation of subluxated or dislocated multifocal or multifocal toric IOLs at 2.5 mm posterior to the limbus were enrolled. Preoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and postoperative UDVA values were compared in this retrospective cross-sectional study. The postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) at 40 cm, residual sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent, and IOL centration were evaluated.

RESULTS

The mean follow-up period was 4.0 ± 5.0 months. The mean preoperative UDVA was 0.73 ± 0.71 logMAR and the postoperative UDVA was 0.05 ± 0.10 logMAR, which was significantly improved relative to the preoperative UDVA. The mean postoperative CDVA was 0.00 ± 0.00 logMAR and the mean postoperative UNVA at 40 cm was 0.05 ± 0.07 logMAR. The mean postoperative residual sphere, cylinder, and spherical equivalent values were - 0.21 ± 0.41 D, - 0.29 ± 0.26 CD, and - 0.33 ± 0.39 D, respectively. Postoperative anterior segment photographs showed good centration of optics in all cases of single-piece foldable multifocal IOLs but a slight inferior decentration in one case of a three-piece multifocal IOL.

CONCLUSION

Scleral fixation of subluxated or dislocated multifocal and multifocal toric IOLs could be one of the treatment options to rescue subluxated or dislocated multifocal IOLs and restore both near and far vision.

Increased Near Vision Spectacle Dependence of Patients With Preoperative Myopia After Mix-and-Match Implantation of Trifocal EDOF and Trifocal IOLs

PURPOSE

To investigate the factors affecting near vision spectacle dependence after mix-and-match implantation of the trifocal extended depth of focus (EDOF) and trifocal intraocular lens (IOL).

METHODS

A total of 204 eyes of 102 patients who underwent mix-and-match implantation of one trifocal EDOF and one trifocal IOL were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to spectacle dependence for near vision: reading glasses and no glasses. Clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups and multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the odds ratio of factors potentially associated with the need for reading glasses.

RESULTS

Eighty-one patients (79.4%) did not need reading glasses and 21 (20.6%) did. The mean age of the no glasses group (55.6 ± 5.6 years) was significantly higher than that of the reading glasses group (52.7 ± 4.1 years). Preoperative refractions were more myopic in the reading glasses group than in the no glasses group. The postoperative uncorrected near visual acuities were better and the satisfaction scores were higher in the no glasses group compared to the reading glasses group. Multivariate binary regression analysis revealed that only pre-operative spherical equivalent (odds ratio: 1.397; P = .025) was related to the spectacle independence for near vision.

CONCLUSIONS

Patients who had preoperative myopia and underwent mix-and-match implantation of trifocal EDOF and tri-focal IOLs tended to need spectacles for near vision. Surgeons should be aware of patients with myopia when considering mix-and-match implantation of trifocal EDOF and trifocal IOLs. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(11):746-753.].

A comparison of clinical outcomes and optical performance between monofocal and new monofocal with enhanced intermediate function intraocular lenses: a case-control study

Background

To compare clinical outcomes and optical performance of a new monofocal with enhanced intermediate function intraocular lenses (IOLs) with that of conventional monofocal IOLs.

Methods

Sixty eyes of 30 patients who underwent phacoemulsification with bilateral implantation of the ICB00 (15 patients) or ZCB00 (15 patients) IOLs were enrolled. Binocular corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA), and distance corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) were measured at 4 weeks after surgery. Patient satisfaction for overall, near, intermediate, and distance vision were assessed. The binocular defocus curves were measured. The root mean square of modulation transfer function (MTF_RMS) was measured in the optical bench study.

Results

The mean binocular DCIVA was significantly better in the ICB00 group (0.01 logMAR) compared to the ZCB00 group (0.13 logMAR), but CDVA and DCNVA were not. The patient satisfaction for near and intermediate vision was significantly higher in the ICB00 group compared to the ZCB00. However, there was no difference in patient satisfaction for overall and distance vision between two groups. The defocus curves showed that mean visual acuity of the ICB00 group was significantly better than that of the ZCB00 group at between − 1.00 D to − 3.00 D of defocus. The ICB00 IOL had higher MTF_RMS values at between − 0.50 D to − 2.00 D of defocus compared to the ZCB00 IOL.

Conclusions

The ICB00 IOL provides better binocular intermediate vision and higher satisfaction for near and intermediate vision than the ZCB00 IOL while maintaining excellent distance vision.

Distribution of angle α and angle κ in a population with cataract in Shanghai

PURPOSE

To describe the distribution of angle α and angle κ in a population with cataract in Shanghai.

SETTING

Eye and Ear, Nose, Throat Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

DESIGN

Hospital-based, cross-sectional study.

METHODS

Angle α, angle κ, and other ocular biometric parameters were determined by IOLMaster 700. The distributions of angle α and angle κ and their associations with systemic and ocular parameters were assessed.

RESULTS

This study included 15 127 eyes of 15 127 cataract patients. The mean angle α and angle κ values were 0.45 ± 0.21 mm and 0.30 ± 0.18 mm, respectively. Angle α and angle κ were both predominantly located temporal to the visual axis. A greater angle α or angle κ was associated with older age, lower corneal power, shorter white-to-white distance, and shallower anterior chamber depth (all P < .05). Angle α correlated positively with angle κ. With increasing axial length (AL), angle α gradually decreased in a nonlinear way and shifted to the nasal side of the visual axis, whereas angle κ decreased in eyes with AL less than 27.5 mm but increased again in eyes with longer AL.

CONCLUSIONS

Angle α and angle κ, both predominantly located temporal to the visual axis, were influenced by multiple anterior segment parameters. As AL increased, the changes in angle α and angle κ were nonlinear, and their locations gradually shifted from the temporal to the nasal side of the visual axis.

Visual performance of four types of diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses and a review of articles

AIM

To compare the clinical outcomes of a variety of multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) in patients diagnosed with presbyopia or cataracts.

METHODS

This clinical trial study included 141 patients (282 eyes) with different MIOLs implantation. The Symfony (60 eyes), the ReSTOR (100 eyes), the AT LISAtri (60 eyes), and the PanOptix (62 eyes) intraocular lenses were evaluated in this prospective interventional study. The near, intermediate, and distant visual acuities, contrast sensitivity, and defocus curve were measured as valid criteria. To statistically analyze the results, we used the Statistical Package for Social Science software, the non-parametric Wilcoxon signed-rank t, the one-way analysis of variance and the Tukey's post-hoc test in our analysis. Moreover, we conducted a detailed literature search on the PubMed database in English about MIOLs, in total 59 studies were included in this review article.

RESULTS

The four approaches did not show any significant difference in the best-corrected distance visual acuity (P>0.05). The defocus curves at the contrast of 100% showed that trifocal IOLs had better intermediate performance than the bifocal IOL (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between AT LISAtri and PanOptix lenses for visual acuity at all distances. The eyes with PanOptix, Symfony, and AT LISAtri IOL showed better contrast sensitivity than those ReSTOR at spatial frequencies of 1, 3, and 6 cpd in photopic and mesopic conditions (P<0.001).

CONCLUSION

All four groups of the multifocal lenses were satisfying in terms of distance and near vision. Also, the group of trifocal lenses led to satisfactory outcomes in intermediate vision, without degradation in quality of vision.

Comparison of Nd:YAG Laser Capsulotomy Rates Between Refractive Segmented Multifocal and Multifocal Toric Intraocular Lenses

PURPOSE

To investigate the early incidence of neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy according to intraocular lens (IOL) type (nontoric vs toric) and surgical techniques (femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery vs conventional phacoemulsification) in eyes with refractive multifocal IOLs.

DESIGN

Retrospective case-control study.

METHODS

Nine hundred thirteen eyes from 483 patients implanted with Lentis Mplus LS-313 MF20 (767 eyes) or Lentis Mplus Toric LU-313 MF20T (146 eyes) IOLs (Oculentis GmbH, Berlin, Germany) were enrolled. We compared the incidence of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy between the nontoric and toric groups. In addition, the incidence of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was also evaluated according to the surgical technique used.

RESULTS

The overall incidence of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was 10.2% (93/913 eyes). The Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy rate was significantly higher in the toric group (24/146; 16.4%) than in the nontoric group (69/767; 9.0%; P = .007). Of the 913 enrolled eyes, 448 eyes (49.1%) underwent femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and 465 eyes (50.9%) underwent conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery. There was no significant difference in the incidence of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy between eyes with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and eyes with conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery.

CONCLUSION

Patients with refractive multifocal toric IOLs had higher early incidence rates of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy when compared to those with refractive multifocal nontoric IOLs. Furthermore, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery could not reduce the early incidence of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy in this study.

The impact of visual axis position on the optical quality after implantation of multifocal intraocular lenses with different asphericity values

PURPOSE

To evaluate the effect of visual axis positioning on the optical performance of the Tecnis MIOL and the Diff-aA MIOL.

METHODS

In this prospective, randomized comparative study, 70 eyes of 35 subjects with senile cataract were implanted with the spherical aberration-correcting diffractive, bifocal Tecnis ZLB00 IOL and 60 eyes of 30 age-matched subjects with the spherical aberration neutral, diffractive, bifocal Diffractiva IOL. Observation procedure was performed 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Main outcome measures included uncorrected and corrected distance and near visual acuity, manifest refraction, ocular aberrations, and visual quality metrics with 2 mm and 4 mm pupil and the position of visual axis.

RESULTS

At the 6-month visit, no significant difference was found in monocular and binocular uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance and near (UNVA, CNVA) visual acuity between the groups. Spherical and coma-like aberrations were similar measured with a 2-mm pupil, but with a 4-mm pupil, the SA was significantly larger (in negative direction) in the Diffractiva group. The higher-order Strehl ratio and MTF was significantly larger in the Diffractiva group measured at 2 mm entrance pupil; however, this difference disappeared by the 4-mm pupil measurements. Postoperative angle alpha distance had a significant influence on HO Strehl value.

CONCLUSIONS

The size of angle alpha is a predictive factor of image quality by multifocal IOL patients.
