“…The TyPE is a specific PRO instrument which has been used and validated in other studies [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]. It was administered during a retrospective case-control study on patients with no eye disease other than cataracts who were bilaterally implanted with a silicone-optic foldable zonal progressive IOL or with a monofocal IOL of similar design [2]. The TyPE instrument was also validated in a multicenter, double-blind, randomized study involving US, German and Austrian patients [9].…”

“…We considered the TyPE to be the best-adapted PRO instrument to use in these studies. Indeed, the TyPE was specifically developed and validated to assess visual functioning of patients in need of and after cataract surgery, especially after the implantation of a multifocal IOL [2.] By comparison, the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 (or -39) is a more general instrument measuring health-related quality of life related to disturbances in visual function [23, 24].…”

“…It measures the overall functional status related to near and distance vision, with and without glasses, at night and during the day. This questionnaire was developed in 1997 by Javitt et al [2] by combining (1) the Cataract TyPE Specification (a 17-item functional status instrument), (2) a scale based on 5 social activities and (3) global measures of vision, health and happiness.…”

“…Multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) were developed to address the above issue, using the principle of simultaneous vision [1]. Clinically, multifocal IOLs have been reported to provide patients with functional near and distance vision and an acceptable level of satisfaction [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]. …”

Background/Aim: To evaluate distance and near vision-related benefit after implantation of ReSTOR® multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) following cataract surgery. Methods: Two prospective open-labeled nonrandomized studies were pooled. Patients’ perception of benefit was assessed with the TyPE, administered at baseline and after each eye surgery. Results: A total of 499 patients received ReSTOR IOLs, and 173 received monofocal IOLs. The distance vision of monofocal and ReSTOR patients improved equally with and without glasses. A greater improvement in near vision without glasses was reported by ReSTOR-implanted patients as early as after the 1st eye surgery (p < 0.0001). More ReSTOR patients than monofocal patients reported independence from glasses after the 1st eye surgery (64 vs. 52%; p = 0.0002). This difference had increased after the 2nd eye surgery (85 vs. 51%; p < 0.0001). Conclusions: The improvement in near vision without glasses was significantly more evident in ReSTOR patients, allowing the majority of them to be free of glasses.

Quality of Life Before and After Cataract Surgery: Research in a Sample of Polish Patients

The goal of this paper is to present possible change in quality of life (QoL) in older sample of people with vision disturbances. The patients were investigated twice: before (N=193) and 4 month after the cataract surgery (N=69), by means of the scale for vision functioning, and the Life Quality Questionnaire (Schalock & Keith, 1993) extend with the items measuring health related quality of life (HRQoL). Two problems were formulated: To what extent are visual defects associated with the decreased subjective QoL? What changes are observed in perceived QoL during the period of treatment of visual defects? The patients reported significant increase of HRQoL, however they did not report similar increase of a general QoL. Few reasons are considered: overlapping of the content of visual function scales and HRQoL and different indices of a general QoL and HRQoL, lack of a proper postoperative care, low socio-economic status of the participants, and too high expectation concerning better functioning after the surgery.

To evaluate visual results after bilateral implantation of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with asymmetrical light distribution for the far and near focus. Methods: Twenty-nine patients underwent bilateral implantation of silicone-optic, foldable, diffractive IOLs in a prospective, 2-center, noncontrolled interventional study. Each patient had a distant-dominant multifocal IOL implanted in 1 eye and a near-dominant multifocal IOL implanted in the fellow eye. Refractive and visual results, including contrast acuity and binocular visual function, were determined. Patients were questioned for postoperative spectacle usage. Results: Visual and contrast acuity in the dominant focus of either lens was superior to that in the nondomi-nant focus at 3.5 to 12 months postoperatively, ie, performance was best at distance for the distant-dominant and at near for the near-dominant lens. In binocular viewing, the monocular maximal results added up to an improved binocular visual performance. Binocular visual function was within normal limits. Eighty percent of patients reported no use of spectacles at any time postoperatively. Conclusions: Bilateral implantation of asymmetrical diffractive IOLs is an effective alternative for restoring simultaneous distance and near vision with a potential for improved contrast sensitivity compared with conventional multifocal IOLs.
