July 25, 2023 updated by: Leyla Asena, Baskent University Ankara Hospital

Comparison of Visual Performance and Quality of Life With a Novel Non-diffractive Extended Depth-of-focus IOL and a Trifocal IOL

The purpose of this study is to compare visual performance and quality of life (QOL) following bilateral implantation of a novel non-diffractive extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) (AcrySof® IQ Vivity, Alcon, TX, USA) and a trifocal IOL (Acrysof® IQ PanOptix, Alcon, Fort Worth, TX) in a prospective comparative interventional case series.

Detailed Description

Developments in cataract surgical devices and intraocular lenses (IOL) increased patient expectations and changed the practice patterns in ophthalmology. Nowadays, cataract surgery is considered as a refractive surgery. With multifocal IOLs, spectacle independence can be achieved with a good distance, intermediate and near visual acuity. This is associated with increased quality of life after cataract surgery.The most important disadvantages of multifocal IOLs are loss of contrast sensitivity and photic phenomena such as glare and halo. Although multifocal IOLs are more frequently associated with photic disturbances than monofocal IOLs, the trifocal IOLs have improved performance in photic phenomena when compared to bifocal IOLs. Recently, a new technology known as extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOLs have been developed. These lenses create a single elongated focal point to enhance the depth of focus, improving intermediate vision without compromising distance vision. Although EDOF IOLs provide better intermediate distance vision when compared to monofocal IOLs, near vision is not as good as trifocal IOLs. The most important advantage provided by the EDOF technology is lower rate of photic disturbances than trifocal IOL designs. The aim of this study was to compare the visual performance and patient-reported quality of life (QOL) outcomes following bilateral implantation of a novel non-diffractive wavefront shaping EDOF IOL (AcrySof® IQ Vivity, Alcon Research, TX, USA) and a trifocal IOL (AcrySof® IQ PanOptix, Alcon Laboratories, Fort Worth, TX).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

104 eyes of 52 consecutive patients with bilateral cataracts operated between April and September 2021 were included. All patients were interested in spectacle independence. Each participant underwent bilateral sequential cataract surgery and bilateral implantation of a novel non-diffractive EDOF IOL (n=26) or a trifocal IOL (n=26). The patients selected the IOL model after they were fully informed regarding the advantages and disadvantages of each IOL, by their surgeon. Their degree of interest in greater spectacle freedom at far, intermediate, and near distances, as well as their daily activities such as frequency of night driving or reading habits were discussed. The possibility of photic disturbances was described and explained as well.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Cataract patients scheduled for surgery who are interested in spectacle independence.
  • Bilateral cataract with plan of bilateral sequential cataract surgery.
  • Adult patients older than 18 years of age
  • Normal cognitive function, able to understand advantages and disadvantages associated with different types of IOLs.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Ocular diseases other than cataract including irregular astigmatism, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration or any other retinal diseases, severe dry eye, glaucoma, amblyopia, uveitis, pseudoexfoliation syndrome, abnormal pupillary function, history of intraocular or corneal surgery, congenital eye abnormalities, or eye trauma.
  • Patients with high myopia with axial length (AL) ≥ 26,5 mm and high hyperopia (AL ≤ 21.5 mm)
  • Lifestyle and work-related factors requiring sharp near or distance vision
  • Patients with unrealistic visual expectations.

EDOF IOL Group
Patients who were implanted with the novel wavefront shaping extended depth of focus IOL
Device: İntraocular lens implantation
Each participant underwent bilateral sequential cataract surgery and bilateral implantation of a novel non-diffractive EDOF IOL (n=26) or a trifocal IOL (n=26). The interval between the first and second-eye surgeries was 1 to 3 weeks. The patients selected the IOL model after they were fully informed regarding the advantages and disadvantages of each IOL, by their surgeon. Their degree of interest in greater spectacle freedom at far, intermediate, and near distances, as well as their daily activities such as frequency of night driving or reading habits were discussed. The possibility of photic disturbances was described and explained as well.

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative visual acuity with or without spectacle correction at near, far and intermediate distances
Time Frame: postoperative third month
uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), distance corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA), distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA)
postoperative third month
Defocus-curves
Time Frame: postoperative third month
The monocular defocus curves were evaluated under photopic conditions using defocusing lenses from +0.50 D to -4.00 D in 0.50 D steps. The measurements were performed by adding the lenses to the CDVA.
postoperative third month
Contrast sensitivity
Time Frame: postoperative third month
Monocular and binocular contrast sensitivity was assessed with the Pelli-Robson chart under photopic conditions at 3 meters.
postoperative third month
Reading speed
Time Frame: postoperative third month
Reading speed was measured using the validated Turkish version of the MNREAD chart in photopic illumination conditions. It was recorded as number of words read by the patient in one minute (words per minute-wpm).
postoperative third month
Quality of vision / dysphotopsia
Time Frame: postoperative third month
Dysphotopsia was assessed by the Quality of Vision (QoV) questionnaire developed by McAlinden et al. The QoV is a validated Rasch-adjusted questionnaire in which patients are asked to rate specific dysphotopsia items depicted in standard photographs. Patients score each item (0, 1, 2, or 3) in relation to how frequent, severe, and bothersome their symptoms are (30 items in total). Lower QoV scores indicate a better quality of vision.
postoperative third month
Vision-related quality of life (QOL)
Time Frame: postoperative third month
The vision-related QOL was assessed three months after the surgery by the VF-14 QOL questionnaire that was administered face-to-face by a trained researcher (İK). The grading scale was as follows: 0, no difficulty; 1, a little difficulty; 2, moderate difficulty; 3, quite difficult; 4, impossible to perform. Special care was taken not to influence the patients and to ensure that each question was fully understood.
