“…The increased incidence of post-operative dysphotopsia associated with acrylic lenses with flattened edges was verified in Tester et al study comparing AcrySof® MA30 and MA60 with Silicone SI-40 IOLs and phakic controls 16. A non-comparative study of a single-piece hydrophilic acrylic IOL, the C-flex® IOL (Rayner Intraocular Lenses Limited, Hove, UK) demonstrated that although the rate of glare was similar to other types of IOL reported in Tester's study, the incidence of unwanted imagery was significantly less [15].…”

“…The Aspheric Balanced Curve (ABC) design provides a sharp visual image while the square edge of the lens helps to minimize posterior capsule opacification. However, hydrophobic acrylic IOLs have been shown to be associated with a higher rate of dysphotopsias than hydrophilic IOLs [15]. Therefore, we wanted to study both the rates of YAG capsulotomy and dysphotopsias following implantation of this IOL.…”

“…A score is given to each answer, and a higher score indicates poorer QOL. We also asked questions regarding patient experience of unwanted images, satisfaction with vision, and disappointment due to unwanted images [ 11 , 12 ]. Finally, we recorded any side effects or complications over this 6-month period.…”

“…The exclusion criteria applied were: -preoperative condition: retinal or optic nerve damage (macular degeneration, glaucoma neuropathy), corneal or vitreous opacities, amblyopia, corneal astigmatism over 1,25 diopter, dry eye, traumatic cataract, other pathologies that can influence the comprehen-sion of the questionnaire (Alzheimer's disease) -intraoperative complications(capsular rupture, IOL out of the capsular bag), -postoperative complications: corneal oedema, significant inflammation, tilted intraocular lens, best corrected vision under 0.1 -unexpected vision loss, cystoid macular oedema, refractive errors (>1,00 spherical diopter, or astigmatism). [4,7,19,23] Questionnaire This study was designed to evaluate the photic phenomena from the perspective of subjective multiple question questionnaire, participants were surveyed at the two week postoperative examination. The questionnaire used was a validated questionnaire described in previous studies.…”

“…The questionnaire used was a validated questionnaire described in previous studies. [17,23] A single investigator performed all the questionnaires Our primary outcome measured was regarding patient satisfaction, followed by uncorrected/corrected visual acuity (measured using Sneller chart) and glass independence.…”
