Vision and patient-reported outcomes with nondiffractive EDOF or neutral aspheric monofocal intraocular lenses

Abstract

To compare outcomes in patients who underwent cataract extraction with implantation of nondiffractive extended depth-of-focus (ND-EDOF; Alcon AcrySof Vivity) or neutral aspheric monofocal (Bausch & Lomb enVista) intraocular lenses (IOLs).Setting:Academic medical center.Design:Prospective single-center double-arm patient- and assessor-masked randomized controlled trial.Methods:Patients were randomized to receive either a ND-EDOF or monofocal IOL in both eyes, targeted for emmetropia. Uncorrected and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA), distance-corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA), level of spectacle independence, and severity of photic phenomena were assessed at 3 months postoperatively.Results:56 patients were enrolled, of which 24 in the ND-EDOF group and 27 in the monofocal group completed follow-up. The binocular mean CDVA, DCIVA, and DCNVA were 20/20, 20/19, and 20/21 for the ND-EDOF IOL and 20/18 (P =.188), 20/31 (P
