TitelFirst clinical experience with the new Tecnis 1-Piece Multifocal IOL
DoelTo evaluate the performance of the new diffractive Tecnis 1-Piece Multifocal IOL ZMB00
MethodesIn a prospective study the Tecnis 1-piece multifocal IOL (Abbott Medical Optics Inc) was implanted bilaterally in 20 patients. Routine cataract surgery was performed with IOL placement into the capsular bag. One day and three months after surgery, the following examinations were performed: refraction, monocular and binocular visual acuity (near and distance), contrast sensitivity with the Ginsburg box, Radner reading speed as well as slit-lamp biomicroscopy
ResultatenAll surgeries were uneventful and first results on patients with Tecnis multifocal IOL are promising: While mean UCDVA was 20/25 1 week after surgery, patients with 3 month follow-up (n=12) improved to 20/20 or better. At that time UCNVA was 20/25 or better in all patients at 33cm. When patients were free to choose best individual reading distance, mean best UCNVA was > 20/20. 5 out of 20 patients reported on slight halos postoperatively. Patient satisfaction was very high in all these multifocal patients due to complete spectacle independence.
ConclusieFirst results with the new Tecnis Multifocal IOL indicate that combining a diffractive posterior surface with an established 1-Piece hydrophobic acrylic design results in ease of implantation, very good visual outcome and high patient satisfaction.
