    Optical Behavior of an Enhanced Monofocal Intraocular Lens Compared with a Standard One
    (Applied Sciences, 2023) Albarrán Diego, César; García Montero, María; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; González Fernández, Verónica; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio
    The aim of this work was to compare an enhanced monofocal (RayOne EMV RAO200E, Rayner) and standard monofocal (RayOne RAO600C Aspheric, Rayner) intraocular lenses (IOLs) for three nominal powers (+10.00 D, +20.00 D and +30.00 D) as a function of the optical aperture diameter (pupil diameter) using a commercial Schlieren phase-shifting deflectometer NIMO TR1504 (Lambda-X, Belgium). From the wavefront maps measured by this instrument, the radial power profiles, the spherical aberration coefficients of the Zernike polynomial expansion (as a function of the optical aperture radius), and the root-mean-square (RMS) of the high-order aberrations (HOAs) were obtained and analyzed by comparing the two models. The results showed that the effective added power that could be obtained with the enhanced model depended directly on the pupil size and the power of the IOL implanted. The higher additions were achieved with the higher nominal IOL powers. The relationship between the pupil diameter, the corneal aberration of the patients and the power profile of these IOLs could have a crucial implication on the far distance and the final effective addition. However, it is important to note that these findings should be clinically validated through the implantation of these models in patients’ lenses.

    Design of an optical bench for polychromatic characterisation of advanced intraocular lens designs with spatial light modulator
    (2023) González Fernández, Verónica; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; García Montero, María; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Fernandez Nuñez, Sara; Albarrán Diego, César
    In recent years, the design of intraocular lenses (IOLs) has experienced a great deal of development and there is now a wide variety of designs. At the moment, some of the most interesting designs that allow for the greatest degree of innovation and customisation are lenses that combine a refractive part with a diffractive part

    Influence of Instrumental Factors in the Measurement of Power Profiles of Intraocular Lenses with a Commercial Deflectometer
    (Applied Sciences, 2023) Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Albarrán Diego, César; García Montero, María; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; González Fernández, Verónica
    Deflectometry is an optical technique for determining properties such as power distribution, wavefront, etc., and measurement of the optical properties of an intraocular lens can provide relevant information for clinicians. The aim of the current study was to establish a protocol for measuring lens power maps and profiles of various optical designs of intraocular lenses with a deflectometer based on the phase-shifting Schlieren principle (NIMO TR1504, Lambda-X, Nivelles, Belgium). The results are discussed with respect to accuracy and repeatability, the influence of the use of filters, and whether to consider the intraocular lens as a thin or thick lens.

    Optical Characterization of a Rotationally Asymmetric Refractive Multifocal Intraocular Lens Compared to a Standard Monofocal One
    (Applied sciences, 2024) Albarrán Diego, César; García Montero, María; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio
    This study compares a standard monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with two rotationally asymmetric refractive multifocal IOLs, analyzing power profiles and wavefront data across three nominal powers. Tested IOLs included monofocal Acunex AN6 and multifocal AN6V (addition +1.50 D) and AN6VM (addition +3.00 D) by Teleon Surgical, at powers +10.00 D, +20.00 D, and +30.00 D. Using NIMO TR1504, power profiles, spherical aberration, and coma were analyzed. Multifocal lenses displayed an asymmetrical design, with zones for far and near vision and a central notch for far power. The multifocal AN6V and AN6VM showed neutral spherical aberration in the center, increasing to positive values, and finally achieving negative values towards the periphery. The vertical coma coefficient [Z(3:−1)] remains almost stable for the monofocal IOLs. The lower-addition multifocal IOLs induce primary vertical coma of +0.11 microns at 3 mm away from the lens center compared to +0.21 microns obtained with the high-addition lens. We can conclude that the multifocal AN6V and AN6VM lenses display an asymmetrical design. The final addition provided by these lenses depends on its nominal power. The variation of SA with optic size is more pronounced for the monofocal model, and it is dependent on the nominal power.

    Optical and Clinical Outcomes of an Isofocal Intraocular Lens vs. a Monofocal Standard Lens
    (Life, 2023) Pérez Sanz, Lidia; González Fernández, Verónica; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Albarrán Diego , César; García Montero, María; Garzón Jiménez, Nuria
    The aim of this study is to evaluate the results obtained on the optical bench and clinically with an isofocal lens (ISOPure, BVI medical, Belgium) to compare them to a standard monofocal one (MicroPure, BVI medical, Belgium). To do so, we have combined laboratory investigation and a prospective, comparative, and randomized clinical study. First, we have measured the wavefront of the two models studied using a NIMO TR1504 (Lambda-X, Belgium) deflectometer for three nominal powers: +10.00, +20.00 and +30.00 D. In the randomized study with 48 patients, half of them implanted with ISOPure and the other with MicroPure, we have measured visual acuities and contrast sensitivity under photopic and mesopic conditions. The optical bench results show that the isofocal lens presented higher power than the monofocal one, at the lens center, due to the spherical aberration (coefficients Z(4,0), Z(6,0) and Z(8,0)) induced by the greater asphericity of its design. The addition obtained depended on the nominal power, from +1.00 to +1.50 D. The results of the clinical study showed that the ISOPure lens presented better visual outcomes, which were statistically significant, at intermediate distance compared to the MicroPure lens (p-values of 0.014 and 0.022 for 80 and 60 cm, respectively) without decreasing the contrast sensitivity. Clinical outcomes were not affected by pupillary size. In conclusion, due to the increase in power at the lens center due to its highly aspherical design, the isofocal lens evaluated showed better intermediate vision than the monofocal one.

    Optical power profiles and aberrations of a non-diffractive wavefront-shaping extended depth of focus intraocular lens
    (Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2024) Garzón Jiménez, Nuria; Gómez Pedrero, José Antonio; Albarrán Diego, César; Fernández Núñez, Sara; Villanueva Gómez-Chacón, Sara; García Montero, María
    Purpose: This study is to evaluate the optical characteristics of a non-diffractive wavefront-shaping intraocular lens which incorporates surface refractive modifications for shaping the wavefront in order to achieve extended depth of focus (EDoF) and to assess whether the nominal power of this IOL influences the attainable add power. Methods: A commercially available optical bench NIMO TR1504 device (LAMBDA-X, Nivelles, Belgium) was employed to obtain full optical characterization of three non-diffractive EDoF intraocular lenses with + 10 D, + 20 D, and + 30 D powers. After NIMO measurements, data were computed using a custom-made MATLAB program (Mathworks, Inc., Natick, MA, USA) to evaluate the optical quality functions, such as the point spread function (PSF), wavefront profiles, and modulation transfer function (MTF) for two pupil sizes: 3 mm and 4.0 mm. Results: The non-diffractive EDoF intraocular lens showed a central serrated power profile behavior with additions of + 2.00 to + 2.50 D over the nominal power. Higher order aberrations were found to be driven mainly by the spherical aberration, with almost null comatic influence. Optical quality metrics showed good values, better for a 3 mm pupil compared to a 4.5 mm one, as expected. The three IOL powers tested showed a very similar behavior in terms of power and aberrometric profiles, with minimal to null differences related to the nominal power. Conclusion: The non-diffractive wavefront-shaping EDoF intraocular lens achieves a near addition up to + 2.50 D aiming for an extended range of vision, almost independently of the base power.
