Comparison of Haptic Orientation in Negative Dysphotopsia

November 28, 2016 updated by: Loma Linda University

Comparison of Horizontal and Vertical IOL Haptic Orientation in Negative Dysphotopsia.

Previous studies attempted to understand the dysphotopsia phenomenon by examining intraocular lens type, anterior capsule depth, iris-to-lens depth, lens refractive material, clear cornea incision wounds and anterior capsulorrhexis. However, there is limited literature in understanding haptic orientation and negative dysphotopsia; postulated theories and anecdotal reports relate to horizontal haptic orientation and the lateralization of rays such that light is received both in smaller width and anterior to the peripheral retina; however, no formal studies currently exist.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Vertical orientation of Haptic orientation
The orientation of the IOL haptic will be implanted in the vertical position during routine cataract surgery
Other: Horizontal orientation of Haptic orientation
The orientation of the IOL haptic will be implanted in the horizontal position during routine cataract surgery
