Abstract

Purpose

To evaluate the tolerance for refractive errors and visual outcomes of extended depth of focus intraocular lens (EDOF IOLs) in patients with previous corneal refractive surgery for myopia.

Methods

Patients from Aier Eye Hospital of Wuhan University with previous myopia excimer laser correction underwent cataract surgery and implantation of an EDOF IOL. The follow-up period was three months. The uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuities (UDVA, UIVA, UNVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), spherical equivalent (SE), defocus curve, optical quality, including modulation transfer functions (MTF) and Strehl ratio (SR), National Eye Institute Visual Functioning Questionnaire-14 for Chinese people (VF-14-CN), spectacle independence, and dysphotopsia were assessed.

Results

At the final visit, UDVA, CDVA, UIVA, and UNVA (LogMAR) were 0.06 ± 0.09, 0.01 ± 0.06, 0.11 ± 0.08, 0.20 ± 0.10, respectively. The mean spherical equivalent (SE) was − 0.57 ± 0.58D, sphere and cylinder were − 0.24 ± 0.60D, − 0.70 ± 0.58D respectively. No statistical difference in UDVA between eyes with SE in ± 0.50 D and in ± 1.0 D (p > 0.05). Corneal astigmatism > 1.00D has no significant effect on postoperative visual acuity (p > 0.05). The defocus curve showed that visual acuity could reach 0.2 in the refractive range of + 0.50D ~ − 1.50D. SR and MTF values were all higher than before the surgery. In bilateral implantation patients, the VF-14-CN questionnaire score and visual quality were quite excellent.

Conclusion

The EDOF IOL have a certain tolerance for refractive errors and corneal astigmatism, and it’s recommended for patients with prior myopia excimer laser surgery to achieve satisfactory visual performance.
