KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — Eyes implanted with a novel enhanced monofocal IOL achieved usable intermediate and near visual acuity while maintaining distance vision, according to Christine Hill, MD, at Kiawah Eye.
“Enhanced monofocal IOLs have been shown to increase depth of field,” Hill, a postgraduate year 2 resident at the Medical University of South Carolina, said. “This IOL utilizes a 1.5-mm central zone with higher-order aspheric coefficients on its posterior surface to extend depth of focus.
“The purpose of this study was to evaluate the optical and refractive
