Keywords
wavefront, multifocal IOL, modulation transfer function, intraocular lenses, wavefront data, Visual performance
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if differences in the design of multifocal intra-ocular lenses would mean different values of higher-order aberrations and different performance in objective parameters such as modulation transfer function.
Interventions
Implant of diffractive multifocal IOL Tecnis
Implant of multifocal IOL ReSTOR
Implant of multifocal IOL ReZoom
