Comparison of Stability Between Panoptix and AT Lisa Trifocal Intraocular Lenses with Distinct Haptic Designs Utilizing the iTrace System - Summary - MDSpire
To compare the rotational stability of C-haptic PanOptix Toric and plate haptic AT Lisa Toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) using the iTrace system.
Approach:
Key Findings:
The study utilized the iTrace system for objective measurement of IOL alignment.
Rotational stability differences between the two IOL designs were evaluated.
Hydrophobic acrylic (PanOptix) and hydrophilic acrylic (AT Lisa) materials were compared.
Interpretation:
The findings suggest that the haptic design and material of trifocal toric IOLs may influence their rotational stability, which is critical for optimal visual outcomes.
Limitations:
The study was retrospective and lacked formal randomization.
Sample size may limit the detection of smaller differences in rotational stability.
Conclusion:
Understanding the differences in rotational stability between IOL designs can guide selection for patients with significant corneal astigmatism seeking spectacle independence.
Spontaneous posterior capsular rupture affected both eyes years following uncomplicated cataract surgery, but intraocular lens dislocation required surgery in only 1 eye.
