    The kappa angle is critical in cataract surgeries involving multifocal IOLs, influencing postoperative photic phenomena.

  • 2

    A larger preoperative kappa angle correlates with a higher likelihood of experiencing glare after multifocal IOL implantation.

  • 3

    Factors such as axial length, age, and refractive error significantly affect the size of the kappa angle before and after surgery.

  • 4

    This study included 95 cataract patients, analyzing various ocular parameters to assess their impact on changes in the kappa angle.

  • 5

    Statistical analysis revealed significant relationships between kappa angle changes and biometric parameters post-cataract surgery.
