Physician satisfaction with System U was also assessed.Patients and Methods: In this prospective observational study, subjects ≥ 18 years old underwent cataract surgery in 1 eye and received the AcrySof IQ IOL via the manually loaded System M (n=103) or the AcrySof IQ IOL model AU00T0 via the preloaded System U (n=93). Procedures were digitally recorded by an external camera or by a camera within the operating microscope. Device preparation, IOL delivery, and IOL positioning times were evaluated by 2 independent graders. Pearson χ2 test or Fisher exact test was used for categorical variables and Student’s t-test or Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables (all tests were 2-sided and performed at a 5% α-level). Physician satisfaction levels were assessed using questionnaires.Results: Lens delivery time was similar for System U and System M (12.9± 5.1 and 12.2± 6.3 s; P=0.412). Mean device preparation time for System U was significantly shorter compared with System M (30.3± 6.6 versus 59.8± 31.0 s; P< 0.05). This resulted in a significantly shorter total intraoperative time (device preparation + lens delivery) with System U versus System M (43.0± 8.6 versus 72.0± 32.5 s; P< 0.05). Total surgical case time (device preparation + lens delivery + lens positioning and unfolding) was shorter for System U versus System M (56.6± 12.6 versus 89.6± 34.6 s; P< 0.05). Physicians reported greater satisfaction levels with System U compared with other devices.Conclusion: Use of the preloaded delivery system (System U) resulted in faster device preparation and reduced total surgical time compared with the manually loaded system (System M). System U was intuitive to use, and physicians preferred it to other devices.Keywords: cataract surgery, intraocular lens delivery time, Monarch, UltraSert
