Halo and Through-Focus Performance of Four Diffractive Multifocal Intraocular Lenses

Abstract: Differences in the design of the diffractive IOLs translate into differences in optical quality at their foci, through-focus performance, and halo features, which can offer further information to surgeons when selecting which IOL to implant.

“…). Vega et al ., demonstrated in an optical bench study that diffractive multifocal IOLs show, at their foci, secondary out‐of‐focus images, from which halos originate and whose characteristics depend on the lens design and pupil size. However, the perception of these halos by the three IOL groups evaluated was not significantly different.…”

“…1 Visual disturbances such as halos or glare have been reported following implantation of multifocal IOLs. [1][2][3][4] The frequency and intensity of these undesired visual disturbances, despite the correction of the refractive error, may condition final patient satisfaction and consequently the impact of the surgery on patient quality of life. 5,6 For this reason, clinical comparative studies evaluating different types of multifocal IOLs should also include in their examination protocols tests for evaluating the visual quality, patient satisfaction and the impact on patient quality of life.…”

“…Despite the excellent technology, photopic phenomena can be generated by the overlapping of images, such as decrease image quality, lower contrast sensitivity and halo or glare perception. These are factors that can lead to dissatisfaction felt by some patients [8].…”
