More precisely, we examined the proportion of blue light-filtering IOL in a wet AMD patients’ sample and compared it with a general North American pseudophakic population sample.Design: Retrospective case–control study.Methods: Case patients were diagnosed and treated for wet AMD and had prior IOL implantation at least 3 years before the diagnosis of wet AMD. Control patients were randomly selected among patients who had cataract surgery at our institution. They were exempt of AMD and paired for the year of surgery, sex and age at cataract surgery. A total of 196 patients were included in each study group.Results: Among patients with wet AMD, 62.8% had a blue light-filtering IOL compared with 63.3% among control patients (p = 0.92). Mean time between implantation and injection of anti-VEGF in AMD patients was 6.62 years (95% confidence interval (CI): 6.04– 7.19) in non-blue light-filtering IOL group and 5.76 years (95% CI: 5.41– 6.11) in blue light-filtering IOL group (p = 0.0120).Conclusion: No correlations could be established between the presence of a blue light filter in the IOL and the occurrence of wet AMD. AMD patients without blue light-filtering IOL were injected significantly later than patients with an IOL filtering blue light, which contradict the potential clinical benefit of the blue light filter.Keywords: blue-light filter, intraocular lens, cataract surgery, age-related macular degeneration, anti-VEGF injectionHamel TRheault JSimonyan DBourgault SRochette PJDove Medical Pressarticleblue-light filterintraocular lenscataract surgeryage-related macular degenerationanti-vegf injectionOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 2287-2292 (2021) |
