Abstract

The results of visual simulation of the retinal images in eyes with three different multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) (apodized diffractive-refractive, full diffractive, and refractive) to evaluate optical performance and characteristics of the IOLs using an optical bench are described in this chapter. Because the optical characteristics of the tested multifocal IOLs differed markedly, careful consideration should be given to implantation of these multifocal IOLs based on the patients’ lifestyles.
