Comparison of tolerance to induced astigmatism in pseudophakic eyes implanted with small aperture, trifocal, or monofocal intraocular lenses

Robert Edward AngDepartment of Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Asian Eye Institute, Makati City, PhilippinesPurpose: To compare the effect of induced astigmatic defocus on visual performance in pseudophakic eyes implanted with a small aperture, trifocal, or monofocal intraocular lens (IOL).Patients a...

For astigmatic tolerance assessment, monocular distance visual acuity was measured with cylindrical lenses (power range=0.00–2.50 diopters (D) in 0.50 D increments) added to the subjects best-corrected distance manifest refraction. The assessment was repeated on three pre-determined axes (90°, 180°, and either 45° or 135°).

When the data was combined across all axes, the astigmatic tolerance of the IC-8 group was better than AT Lisa group from 0.50 D to 2.50 D and FineVision group from 0.50 D to 1.50 D (all P<0.05, ANOVA).
