PURPOSE: To evaluate peripheral refraction and contrast detection sensitivity in pseudophakic patients implanted with a new type of inverted meniscus intraocular lens (IOL) (Art25; Voptica SL) that was designed to provide better peripheral optics. METHODS: One month after cataract surgery, in 87 eyes implanted with the Art25 IOL, peripheral contrast detection sensitivity was measured psychophysically at 40° visual angle, both horizontally and vertically, and compared with a control group of 51 eyes implanted with standard biconvex IOLs. Thirty-one eyes with the Art25 IOL and 28 eyes from the control group were randomly selected to also measure peripheral refraction using a scanning Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor along 80° in the horizontal meridian. RESULTS: Most patients achieved emmetropia and good visual acuity, and no significant adverse events were observed after cataract surgery with Art25 IOLs. Peripheral contrast detection sensitivity was significantly better ( P < .01) in the group with the Art25 IOL in both directions (7.78 ± 3.24 vs 5.74 ± 2.60 vertical, 10.98 ± 5.09 vs 7.47 ± 3.96 horizontal), which was in agreement with the optical quality improvement in the periphery due to a reduction of defocus (1.97 and 1.21 diopters [D] at 40° temporal and nasal sides) and astigmatism (1.17 and 0.37 D at 40° temporal and nasal sides) that was statistically significant ( P < .01) from 20° of eccentricity. CONCLUSIONS: Patients implanted with a new inverted meniscus IOL present a reduced amount of peripheral defocus and astigmatism compared to patients implanted with standard biconvex IOLs. This improvement in optical quality leads to better contrast detection sensitivity measured at 40° of eccentricity. [ J Refract Surg . 2022;38(4):229–234.] |
