Abstract

Material and methods. The short- and long-term results of phacoemulsification with implantation of 700 Clareon intraocular lenses (IOL) preloaded into disposable pneumatic AutonoMe delivery systems were studied. The optical power of the IOL was calculated using the Verion system using modern formulas for emmetropia. Functional and refractive results, surgical and postoperative complications were assessed. Results. Of the 700 Clareon IOL implantations performed, 693 (99.0%) were without complications; complications occurred in 7 (1.0%) eyes. By 12 months of observation, BCDVA and UCDVA increased from 0.15±0.03 to 0.65±0.09 and from 0.31±0.04 to 0.76±0.12 (p<0.05), respectively. Refraction of the target was achieved in 90% of patients. The loss of endothelial cells from the baseline level was 4.8%. In all patients, the optical part of the IOL remained stably transparent, no glistening phenomena were observed in any case; the haptic component of the IOL provided a stable correct central position of the IOL in the capsule bag. Secondary cataract developed in 22/605 (3.6%) eyes, which required dissection in 19/605 (3.1%) eyes. Conclusion. The new monofocal intraocular lens Clareon is high-tech and can be widely used in clinical practice. The new automated pneumatic delivery system AutonoMe is efficient and safe.
