Abstract
AIM: To investigate and compare the quality of life, satisfaction, contrast sensitivity, glare, depth perception, and intraocular lens (IOL) rotation in patients who underwent trifocal toric and bifocal toric IOLs. METHODS: A total of 80 eyes of 40 patients were included in this prospective study. Twenty patients in each group were implanted with trifocal toric and bifocal toric IOL, respectively. Preoperative and postoperative 6-month measurements were recorded for both patient groups. Comprehensive anterior and posterior segment examinations, distance-intermediate-near visual acuity values and the visual function scale questionnaire results were evaluated at these examinations. Patient satisfaction, contrast sensitivity, glare, intermediate-near and distance stereopsis and IOL rotation were also evaluated. RESULTS: No significant difference was found between the groups in terms of distance and near visual acuities (P=0.269, P=0.451). Intermediate visual acuity was significantly increased in the trifocal toric group (P<0.001). The visual function scale results were increased after surgery in both groups (P=0.001 and P<0.001), with no difference determined between them (P=0.158 and P=0.691). The number of patients wearing glasses was low in both groups and there was no significant difference between the groups (P>0.05). The overall satisfaction in the trifocal toric group was significantly higher than in the bifocal toric group (P=0.03). The highest sensitivity was observed at 6 cpd spatial frequency in all patients under photopic conditions (1.80±0.24 logU, 1.74±0.20 logU). Distance-intermediate-near binocular depth perception results in both groups were higher in the trifocal toric group (P=0.02, 0.048, 0.003, respectively). Although there was no significant difference for 3 meters stereopsis, the trifocal toric group had higher depth perception (P=0.577). Mean rotation was 5.76°±3.93° in the trifocal toric group and 12°±7.1° in the bifocal toric group. CONCLUSION: Better results in the middle distance are obtained in the trifocal toric group and less IOL rotation due to digital system-coordinated surgery. Moreover, the overall satisfaction in the trifocal toric group is significantly higher than in the bifocal toric group. International Journal of Ophthalmology Press.
