The AcrySof ReSTOR IOL and AcrySof Natural ReSTOR IOL provided good visual performance at distance and near under photopic and mesopic conditions. Intermediate vision with both models was reduced compared with distance and near vision.

A larger pupil was correlated significantly with better distance visual acuity and with worse near visual acuity. For all pupil diameters, intermediate visual acuity worsened significantly as the distance of the test increased. Distance contrast sensitivity was better with larger pupils at all spatial frequencies in bright-light and dim-light conditions.

Bilateral implantation of the distance-dominant bifocal 447D IOL provided good simultaneous distance, near, and intermediate vision with improved contrast sensitivity under photopic and mesopic conditions.
