The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of age, postoperative refraction, and pre- and postoperative pupil size on postoperative halo size with a trifocal diffractive IOL (AcrySof IQ PanOptix) and extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) IOL (TECNIS Symfony) to determine whether these factors could predict postoperative halo size.Patients and Methods: This single-center, open-label study conducted between October 2018 and April 2020 in Yokosuka, Japan included 160 patients: 80 with PanOptix and 80 with Symfony IOLs. Size and intensity of the halos were examined binocularly using a computer-based simulator (Eyeland Design Network GmbH) and scored from 0 (minimum) to 10 (maximum) at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively, along with the change in each variable for both IOLs. The respective correlations of halo size with age, postoperative refraction, pre- and postoperative pupil size, and discomfort level due to the halo were also investigated 6 months postoperatively.Results: Halo size and intensity were significantly mitigated between 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Throughout the observation period, halo size was significantly larger with PanOptix than with Symphony (P < 0.05), and halo intensity was significantly higher with Symphony than with PanOptix (P < 0.05). The pre- and postoperative pupil size correlated positively with halo size, while age and postoperative refraction were negatively correlated, for both IOLs.Conclusion: Understanding the features and predictive preoperative factors of halos in different types of multifocal IOLs may be useful in improving patient satisfaction.Keywords: halo size, multifocal intraocular lens, biometric predictable factors, trifocal intraocular lens, extended depth-of-focus intraocular lens, photic phenomena, halo |
