PurposeTo compare biometry and prediction of postoperative refractive outcomes obtained by two swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) biometers (IOLMaster 700 and Argos), and a partial coherence interferometry (IOLMaster ver 5.4)MethodsBiometric values were measured using two SS-OCT and PCI device and evaluated against one another. Predictive errors were compared at one month after cataract surgery.ResultsOne hundred forty six eyes were considered. Axial length (AXL) measurements were not successful in 3 eyes measured by IOLMaster 700 and Argos devices, and in 17 eyes measured by IOLMaster ver. 5.4 devices. AXL as measured by Argos showed a tendency to be shorter in long eyes with AXL more than 26.0 mm (p < .001) and to be longer in short eyes with AXL less than 22.5 mm (p = .005). Anterior chamber depth as measured by IOLMaster ver. 5.4 was longer than that measured by the other two SS-OCT devices (vs. IOLMaster 700: p = .003; vs. Argos: p = .006). White-to-white diameter measured using Argos was significantly different measurements obtained using two IOLMaster (p < .001, respectively). The mean absolute postoperative prediction errors were 0.41 ± 0.31 diopters (D), 0.42 ± 0.32 D, and 0.35 ± 0.30 D for IOLMaster ver. 5.4, IOLMaster 700, and Argos, respectively.ConclusionThe ocular biometric measurements using three devices showed high agreement. AXL measured by Argos showed a significant difference compared with the measurements from two IOLMaster. ACD was highly correlated between two SS-OCT devices except IOLMaster ver 5.4. LT and CCT values between IOLMaster 700 and Argos were different significantly. SS-OCT devices demonstrated a superior ability to successfully perform measurements compared with PCI device.

BackgroundTo evaluate monocular and binocular visual outcomes for near, intermediate, and far distance in patients implanted with diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with different add power contralaterally.MethodsThis is a prospective contralateral study. Two diffractive multifocal IOLs with different added power were implanted bilaterally in twenty patients. TECNIS® ZKB00 (+ 2.75 D) was implanted in a dominant eye, and TECNIS® ZLB00 (+ 3.25 D) was implanted in a non-dominant eye. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), and manifest refraction (MR) values were measured at 1 month and 3 months postoperatively. At the 3-month follow-up, defocus curve, contrast sensitivity, and reading performance were evaluated. Quality of vision, overall satisfaction, and spectacle independence were evaluated by questionnaire.ResultsPostoperative binocular UDVA, visual acuity at 80 cm, 60 cm, 50 cm, 43 cm, 33 cm were − 0.08 ± 0.10, 0.12 ± 0.14, 0.09 ± 0.09, 0.07 ± 0.11, 0.14 ± 0.09, 0.25 ± 0.11 logMAR. The binocular defocus curve showed an extended range of good visual acuity with sharp vision being observed from 0 D to − 2.50 D defocus (logMAR≤0.1). Reading performance was significantly improved compared to baseline. All patients were spectacle-free at distance, and 94.74% of the patients did not require glasses for near and intermediate vision.ConclusionsMix-and-match implantation of diffractive multifocal IOLs with different add power provides an excellent wide range of vision, as well as high levels of visual quality and patient satisfaction.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02556944, https://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT02556944
