Refractive Versus Diffractive Multifocal Intraocular Lenses in Cataract Surgery: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Abstract: Refractive MIOLs can provide better distance vision, whereas diffractive MIOLs provide better near vision, reading ability, and equivalent intermediate vision, reduce unwanted photic phenomena, and allow greater spectacle independence.

“…Mean logMAR VA in DCIVA was much higher in our study (0.04 ± 0.06) than in the spherical diffractive (0.38 ± 0.14) and aspheric diffractive MFIOLs (0.14 ± 0.17) at the 60 cm distance [ 10 ]. Binocular UIVA was significantly better in the refractive MFIOLs than in the diffractive MFIOLs [ 21 ] and was similar to OptiVis results. In the study by Chiam et al [ 22 ], UIVA was 0.24 ± 0.1 in the ReZoom group, similar to the results obtained for the OptiVis group (0.23 ± 0.22).…”

“…An eye with an IOL is usually referred to as pseudophakic. Extensive literature is available on the effect of IOL types on visual function 13,14 and reading. 1517 However, only a few studies 1821 have investigated the difference in reading performance across individuals with cataract, pseudophakia, and normal vision.…”
