Astigmatism, spherical aberration, contrast vision and defocus of 124 MICS cases in a multicentre study Jean-Claude Rigal-Sastourné The author of this poster has received travel expense reimbursement from Phys. IOL ASCRS 2010
Purpose n To evaluate the refractive outcomes in terms of astigmatism, spherical aberration, contrast vision and defocus, of microincision cataract surgery after implantation of a micro-incision aspheric intraocular lens. Methods n Prospective multicentre study n 124 eyes implanted with Micro AY (Phys. IOL) n n Four surgeons performing micro-incision cataract surgery: D. Deidier, G. Lesieur, P. Rozot, JC Rigal-Sastourné Examinations at 1 week (124 eyes) and 3 month (101 eyes) ASCRS 2010

Conclusion Good visual outcomes with low levels of astigmatism, good visual acuity and good contrast vision were observed in this study three months after MICS and implantation of an aspheric micro-incision lens. When aberrometry was performed, most eyes ended with an expected slightly positive balance of spherical aberration. Defocus curves have shown only a slight decrease of depth of focus in comparison to spherical IOLs. No complications were due to the implant: there were no problems during insertion, no IOL deposits and no posterior capsule early opacity. ASCRS 2010
