    The study compares visual performance outcomes of PanOptix and Symfony intraocular lenses using area under the distance-corrected defocus curve.

  • 2

    PanOptix utilizes trifocal technology while Symfony employs extended depth of focus technology, both aimed at improving presbyopia correction.

  • 3

    AUC analysis provides a comprehensive metric for assessing visual performance across a continuous defocus range, enhancing traditional visual acuity measurements.

  • 4

    The study enrolled patients undergoing cataract surgery, focusing on those desiring spectacle independence and meeting specific ocular criteria.

  • 5

    Postoperative visual outcomes were evaluated at 3 months, including corrected and uncorrected visual acuity across distance, intermediate, and near ranges.
