Abstract

Objective To compare the accommodation of accommodative and monofocal intraocular lens (IOL), in order to solve the problem of deficiency after the cataract surgery. Methods A total of 51 patients (69 eyes) who received cataract surgery were recruited. According to the type of IOL, patients were divided into two groups: accommodative IOL group (group A) and monofocal IOL group (group B). The uncorrected and best-corrected distance visual acuities (UCDVA and BCDVA), uncorrected and best-corrected near visual acuities (UCNVA and BCNVA), and amplitude of accommodation were measured at postoperative 3 months. Results Differences in UCDVA, BCDVA and BCNVA among the two groups were not significant. Patients in group A exhibited a better UCNVA and accommodation compared to patients in group B at postoperative 3 months (P <0.01). Conclusions All the two types of IOL achieve great distance visual acuity; however, accommodative IOL produce better UCNVA and accommodation. Key words: Intraocular lens; Accommodative; Monofocal; Accommodation
