{Abstract}: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical outcomes following bilateral implantation of the AcrySof™ IQ Vivity™ toric extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL).
METHODS: Prospective interventional case series.
METHODS: Patients with bilateral significant cataracts and pre-existing corneal astigmatism underwent cataract surgery and implantation with the AcrySof™ IQ Vivity™ toric IOL. Dominant eyes were targeted at emmetropia and non-dominant eyes at -0.50D. Primary endpoints were binocular uncorrected distance (UDVA), intermediate (UIVA at 66 cm) and near (UNVA at 40 cm) acuities at 3 months. Secondary outcomes were corrected distance (CDVA), distance corrected intermediate (DCIVA) and distance corrected near (DCNVA), refractive predictability, rotational stability, binocular defocus curve, contrast sensitivity, Questionnaire for Visual Disturbances (QUVID) and Visual Function Index (VF-14) questionnaire scores. All visual acuities were converted to logarithm of minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) for analysis.
RESULTS: 30 patients underwent uneventful phacoemulsification. The mean binocular UDVA, UIVA and UNVA were 0.06 ± 0.12, 0.11 ± 0.10 and 0.26 ± 0.10 respectively. The mean refractive spherical equivalent (MRSE) for dominant and non-dominant eyes were - 0.07D ± 0.27 and - 0.12D ± 0.54 respectively. 92.4% of dominant eyes and 84.6% of non-dominant eyes within 0.50D of target. The mean IOL rotation was 3.85° ± 5.09 with 86.7% of eyes with less than 5° of rotation. 26.7%, 20% and 36.7% of patients reported starbursts, haloes and glare respectively. The mean VF-14 score was 91.77.
CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral implantation of the AcrySof™ IQ Vivity™ Toric IOL resulted in very good unaided visual acuities for far and intermediate distance with functional near vision. Dysphotopsias were reported but despite this, a high level of visual function was achieved.
