“…Moreover, binocular defocus curves were generated with 0.50 D increments within the range of + 2.0 D to -5.0 D. Patients were also questioned about photopic symptoms such as halos, glare, sunbursts, and dark areas, and they were asked to rate the severity of their symptoms on a scale of 1 = none, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate, 4 = severe. The Visual Function 14 questionnaire (VF-14), consisting of 14 questions, was conducted to evaluate patients' visual satisfaction and quality of life [17]. In contrast to the original version of the questionnaire, responses were also noted without glasses to assess patients' functional ability to perform activities without glasses.…”

Background The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of trifocal and monofocal intraocular lens with enhanced depth of focus implantations Methods 40 patients who had bilateral implantation of the trifocal or monofocal extended depth of focus intaocular lenses after phacoemulsification were included in the study. The preoperative and postoperative examination findings were analyzed. At the 6th postoperative month, binocular defocus curves, contrast sensitivity measurements, subjective complaints, spectacles independence, and the quality of life questionnaire results of the VF-14 questionnaire were also examined. Results While distance and intermediate visual acuities were similar at 6 months postoperatively, near visual acuities were found to be statistically significantly better in the trifocal group. The contrast sensitivity values were found to be statistically better in the edof group. In the trifocal group, 25% of the patients had low-intensity and 5% of the patients had moderate intensity of photopic complaints respectively, while 10% of the patients in the edof group had low-intensity photopic complaints. While spectacles independence could be achieved in all patients in the trifocal group, in the edof group, 80% of patients needed spectacles. When examining VF-14 test values without spectacles, it was found that the values of the trifocal group were significantly higher. Conclusions Trifocal group performed better at near, although far and intermediate vision was comparable between the groups. On the other hand, a higher rate of photic phenomena was observed in the trifocal group. Trial registration: Retrospectively registered
