摘要: Abstract Purpose: To assess the efficacy and safety of a soft acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) in small incision cataract surgery. Methods: Sixty-four eyes 64 patients (mean age 71.0 ± 7.7 [SD] years) who had phacoemulsification implantation IOL were followed for 2 years. Results: At day 1, 96.9% corrected visual acuity 20/40 or better, 50.0% 20/20 better. years postoperatively, 100% 86.3% 20/20. Surgically induced keratometric cylinder remained quite stable throughout year follow-up period, with axis-based astigmatism ±0.3 diopters. Flare intensity measured laser flare-cell meter was less than that other type IOLs measured, including poly(methyl methacrylate) silicone. Neodymium:YAG capsulotomy performed seven cases (11.1 %) without causing damage to optic. No postoperative complications encountered. Conclusion: Soft have clinically apparent advantages
