Abstract EN
Purpose.
To investigate the intraocular straylight value after cataract surgery.
Methods.
In this study, 76 eyes from 62 patients were subdivided into three groups.
A hydrophobic acrylic, a hydrophilic acrylic, and a PMMA IOL were respectively, implanted in 24 eyes, 28 eyes, and 24 eyes.
Straylight was measured using C-Quant at 1 week and 1 month postoperatively in natural and dilated pupils.
Results.
The hydrophilic acrylic IOLs showed significantly lower straylight values than those of the hydrophobic acrylic IOLs in dilated pupils at 1 week and 1 month after surgery (P<0.05).
However, the straylight values of the hydrophilic acrylic IOLs were the lowest among the three IOL groups.
No significant difference was observed in straylight between 1 week and 1 month postoperatively in each group with natural and dilated pupils (P>0.05).
Moreover, no significant difference was found in straylight between natural and dilated pupils in each group at 1 week and 1 month postoperatively (P>0.05).
Conclusions.
Although the hydrophobic acrylic IOL induced more intraocular straylight, straylight differences among the 3 IOLs were minimal.
Pupil size showed no effect on intraocular straylight; the intraocular straylight was stable 1 week after surgery.
