AB 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.
