Abstract

The question about how the efficacy of different cataract treatments will ultimately come down to the evaluation of visual quality, in particular, the effect of the implantation of different types of IOL on visual quality [1–6]. The parameters provided by the OQAS II are also applicable to the comparison of the quality of retinal imaging after different types of IOL implantation, which provides an objective basis for the selection of IOLs in the clinic [7–10]. Physicians can compare the measured visual quality after implantation of different IOLs and then use the result to guide clinical treatment.
