Visual outcomes after bilateral implantation of Versario intraocular lenses: six-month follow-up

Abstract PurposeTo study visual outcomes after implantation of Versario intraocular lenses (IOLs) Patients and MethodsIn 20 selected patients (40 eyes) uneventful, bilateral cataract surgeries with implantation of trifocal Versario (IOLs) were performed. Designprospective case series. Six months after surgery the following parameters were analysed: binocular uncorrected visual acuities (log MAR): for distance (UDVA) at 4 m, for intermediate (UIVA) at 60, 70, 80 cm and for near (UNVA) at 40 cm, photopic defocus curve, mesopic and photopic contrast sensitivities (CSs), spectacle independence, visual function test questionnaire (modified VFQ-25), subjective symptoms and postoperative complications. ResultsSix months after surgery, the mean of binocular visual acuities were as follows: UDVA: -0.12 ± 0.08; UIVA (60 cm): +0.07 ± 0.10, (70 cm): +0.05 ± 0.11, (80cm): +0.07 ± 0.09; UNVA (40cm): +0.12 ± 0.08. CSs in mesopic and scotopic conditions for distance and photopic for near were between normal range of age- match healthy control. All patients were spectacle independent. General satisfaction was high and equal 9.37±0.83. No severe glare and halo were detected. There were no postoperative complications. ConclusionsThe bimanual MICS with the Versario lenses implantation was a safe and effective method for patients who want to be spectacle independent at different distances.
