Abstract
With increased patients’ demand for a spectacle-free lifestyle and technological advancements, cataract surgery with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation has become an effective solution for correcting presbyopia in patients who want to maintain their full range of vision.

The postoperative spherical equivalent was within 0.50 D in 72.4% of eyes, and 90.6% of eyes had less than 1.00 D of residual cylinder
Our study showed that bilateral implantation of an extended depth of focus (EDOF) lens provided excellent binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity despite the mean postoperative refractive error of -0.41 D
Summary
With increased patients’ demand for a spectacle-free lifestyle and technological advancements, cataract surgery with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation has become an effective solution for correcting presbyopia in patients who want to maintain their full range of vision. Conventional bifocal IOLs used either refractive or diffractive optics to split the light and create 2 principal focal points, providing functional vision at distance and near [1] This simultaneous imaging principle produces a Copyright © All rights are reserved by Jorge Tae im Kim. Tr Ophtha Open Acc J. The elongated focus allows imaging in a continuous range of vision without overlapping near and far images, and theoretically would provide a more consistent distance and intermediate vision with less dysphotopsia The aim of this multicenter study was to investigate the clinical outcome of patients bilaterally implanted with either Tecnis Symfony or Tecnis Symfony toric extended range of vision IOLs (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Santa Ana, CA, USA) in terms of visual performance at different distances, spectacle independence, photic phenomena, and patient satisfaction
