High-Quality Distance and Near Vision With Dual-Optic Accommodating IOL: 3-Year Follow-up
Narrative Responses:
Purpose
To study visual outcomes for far, intermediate and near after Synchrony IOL(Abbott Medical Optics, USA)implantation.
Methods
19 patients (33 eyes) underwent SynchronyIOL implantation.Follow
up visits were performed up 2 y. po. Contrast sensitivity and
occurrence of halos were also assessed.Defocus curve analysis was applied.
Results
Mean patient age was71.52±7.02ys.Distance UCVA was0.04±0.05logMAR at2years. Near Vision20/26.75±3.50 EDTRS with correction 0.81 ± 0.91 at 24 months.Intermediate20/32EDTRS. No contrast sensitivity penalization
occurred.Quality of vision study detected moderate halos in14.3%of the
patients.
Conclusion
Synchrony dual-optic accommodative IOL appeared to be clinically safe and effective. UCVA safe for car driving was achieved within1month
Intermediate and near vision were satisfactory within1week.
