Abstract: | PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bilateral multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation after cataract surgery. SETTING: Oftalmológico de Valencia-CEOVAL, Valencia, Venezuela. METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated patient charts for the patient selection method, preoperative evaluation, surgical technique, postoperative visual and refractive outcomes, and complications. It included 70 eyes of 35 patients who had lens extraction with bilateral implantation of an Array multifocal IOL. Fourteen eyes of 7 patients had hyperopia with presbyopia, and 56 eyes of 28 patients had cataract. RESULTS: All eyes achieved an uncorrected distance acuity of 20/40 or better and an uncorrected near acuity of J5 or better. Six patients (18%) reported moderate halos, and 22 patients (63%) occasionally wore glasses. CONCLUSION: Bilateral multifocal IOL implantation was effective and safe in cataract and hyperopic patients with presbyopia, providing good uncorrected distance and near acuities. |
