Effect of inclination and eccentricity of intraocular lens on optical imaging quality detected by wavefront aberration system

Abstract

AIM: To investigate the effect of inclination and eccentricity of intraocular lens(IOL),on optical imaging quality via wavefront aberration optical path system.METHODS: The spherical IOL Sensar AR40e, the aspherical monofocal IOL Tecnis ZA9003, and the aspheric multifocal IOL Tecnis ZM900 were measured at the center of the center using a laboratory-built Hartmann-Shack IOL wavefront aberration path system at 5.0mm simulated pupil diameter. 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8mm, the effect on the optical imaging quality when tilting 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25° to the nasal side and the temporal side, and quantitative imaging quality by high-order aberration and modulation transfer function.RESULTS: The Temnis ZA9003 MTF value was higher than AR40e and Tecnis ZM900 when inclinationed within 5°, while the three IOL MTF values were significantly different when inclinationed 5°, 10°, 15°, and 20°. Tecnis ZA9003 The IOL inclination angle was significantly positively correlated with the coma(r=0.842, Pr=0.229, P=0.241). The three IOL MTF values were obtained when the eccentricity was 0.6 and 0.8 mm. Significant differences(both PCONCLUSION: When the inclination of aspheric IOL(-0.27μm spherical aberration)is less than 5°and the eccentricity is less than 0.4mm, aspherical IOL has a better imaging quality than that of spherical IOL. Tecnis ZM900 IOL has a lower optical imaging quality than that of spherical and aspheric IOL when the eccentricity of IOL is more than 0.4mm.
