Abstract
PURPOSE
To evaluate the clinical results of thermoplastic, hydrophilic acrylic IOL CV232 (MemoryLens(R), CIVA Vision, USA) to those of hydrophobic acrylic IOL AR40e (Sensar(R), AMO, USA). METHODS: Twenty patients had in-the-bag implantation of a MemoryLens(R) IOL in 1 eye and a Sensar(R) in the opposite eye in a randomized fashion after uneventful phacoemulsification. We evaluated the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and posterior capsule opacification (PCO) at a mean 30.05 months after surgery. RESULTS: Two years postoperatively, a BCVA of 0.8 or better was found in 65% of the MemoryLens(R) group and in 60% of the Sensar(R) group. There was no statistically significant differences between the two groups (p>0.50). PCO developed in 55% in the MemoryLens(R) group and in 65% of the Sensar(R) group. Again, no statistically significant differences were found between the two groups (p>0.50). CONCLUSIONS: There were no significant differences between the two different intraocular lenses in BCVA or PCO postoperatively.
