Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate visual and refractive parameters in a series of subjects bilaterally implanted with presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) during cataract surgery.

Detailed Description

Each subject completed a preoperative examination of both eyes, implantation of IOL at the operative visit for each eye, and up to 4 postoperative visits (each eye examined at Day 1-2, with binocular visits at Month 1 and Month 3 after the second implantation). The second implantation occurred within 30 days of the first.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Binocular Defocus VA at Month 3Month 3 from second eye implantation

Defocus VA (an indicator of the expected range of vision with a presbyopia-correcting IOL) was tested binocularly with the participant's best spectacle correction using a chart. Lenses of different spherical powers were placed in front of the eyes to produce varying levels of defocus. The VA at each spherical power was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on an ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patient Reported Outcomes at Month 3Month 3 from second eye implantation

The Visual Task Difficulty Assessment (VISTAS) questionnaire was completed by the subject to assess difficulty in completing everyday tasks that depend on good vision. Tasks were rated using a 1 to 5 point scale, where 1 = no difficulty; 2 = minor difficulty; 3 = moderate difficulty; 4 = major difficulty; 5 = cannot accomplish. Individual scores for each task were averaged to obtain the overall score for each vision type/function. Near vision was defined as less than 50 cm; intermediate vision as 50 cm to 1 m; extended intermediate vision as 90 cm to 4 m; and distant vision as more than 4 m.

Mean Refractive Spherical Equivalent at Month 3Month 3 from second eye implantation

A manifest refraction (vision check) was performed using a 100% contrast ETDRS chart under well-lit conditions. Results were documented for sphere, cylinder and axis readings. The refractive spherical equivalent was calculated according to the formula: sphere + ½ cylinder power. Both eyes contributed to the mean.

Mean Radner Reading SpeedMonth 3 from second eye implantation

Reading performance was measured using the Radner Reading Chart with no correction (without) and with best distance corrective aids (with). Reading speed was measured in words per minute.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) Across a Range of Distances at Month 3Month 3 from second eye implantation

Visual acuity (VA) was tested binocularly (both eyes together) with correction in place if needed across a range of distances under well-lit conditions using Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts. VA was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on an ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity.

Uncorrected Visual Acuity Across a Range of Distances at Month 3Month 3 from second eye implantation

VA was tested binocularly unaided across a range of distances under well-lit conditions using Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts. VA was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on an ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity.
