Setting: San Carlos Clinical Hospital, Madrid, Spain. Design: Observational, noninterventional, pilot study, early feasibility of the device being studied. Methods: Cataract patients were tested preoperatively (n = 24) and postoperatively (n = 15) after bilateral implantation of monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs). The degree of cataract was evaluated objectively with the objective scatter index (OSI). Visual acuity (VA) and perceived visual quality of natural scene images (Multifocal Acceptance Score) were measured before and after cataract surgery at far (4 m), intermediate (64 cm) and near distance (40 cm) with 4 binocular presbyopic corrections (single vision, bifocal, monovision and modified-monovision) simulated with a binocular Simultaneous Vision simulator based on temporal multiplexing. Results: VA was significantly correlated with OSI (r = −0.71, P < .0005), although the visual degradation at far for each correction was constant and not correlated with OSI. The visual benefit at near distance provided by the presbyopic correction was noticeable (23.3% ± 27.6% across corrections) for OSI <5. The individual perceptual scores were highly correlated preoperatively vs postoperatively (r = 0.64, P < .0005) for all corrections and distances. Conclusions: Visual simulations of IOLs are an excellent tool to explore prospective postoperative vision. The high correlation in the perceptual scores pre- and post-cataract surgery demonstrates that SimVis Gekko can be used in cataractous patients to guide the selection of the optimal correction for a patient.engAtribución 3.0 Españahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/Visual simulations of presbyopic corrections through cataract opacificationjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000001040https://journals.lww.com/jcrs/Fulltext/2023/01000/Visual_simulations_of_presbyopic_corrections.8.aspxopen access617.741-004.1617.753.4Visual stimulationPresbyopiaCataractsPresbyopic correctionOftalmologíaOptometríaÓptica fisiológica3201.09 Oftalmología2209.15 Optometría
