Abstract Aim To evaluate the objective visual outcomes following implantation of extended depth of focus intraocular lens (EDOF IOL) in individuals with varying axial lengths (AL) and targeted refraction. Methods This retrospective study comprised age-matched eyes that underwent implantation of the EDOF IOL. Eyes were categorized based on AL into groups: control group with AL 0.05). Additionally, in the high myopia group, the CS of the − 2.25 to -1.50 group was lower compared to that of the − 0.75 to 0.00 group (P = 0.017). Among high myopia patients, 90.00% with refraction ranging from − 1.50 to -0.75 reported achieving overall spectacle independence. Conclusions Implantation of extended depth of focus intraocular lenses (IOLs) yields satisfactory visual and refractive outcomes in eyes with axial myopia. Among high myopia patients, a refraction ranging from − 1.50 to -0.75 diopters achieves superior visual quality compared to other postoperative myopic diopters.
