Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| intermediate vision assessment | 6 months postoperatively | Standardized logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) charts were used for visual acuity measurement at 80 cm . |
| near vision assessment | 6 months postoperatively | Standardized logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) charts were used for visual acuity measurement at 40 cm. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| defocus curve | 6 months postoperatively | The curve was obtained while the patient wearing his distance correction to provide the best distance visual acuity in both eyes. The test was performed under photopic conditions (85 candelas/m2) using ETDRS charts at a distance of 4m with the introduction of defocusing lenses from +1.00 D to -4.00 D in 0.50 D steps. |
