AIM: To evaluate the centration of the SBL-3 multifocal intraocular lens, the size of the distant and near power zone in the pupil area and the area of the visual axis using Itrace visual function analyzer. METHODS: Retrospective case study. From January 2018 to January 2019, 51 eyes of 36 patients underwent phacoemulsification cataract combined with regional refraction multifocal intraocular lens implantation at Beijing Aier-Intech Eye Hospital were enrolled. The centration, visual axis, angle α, angle Kappa and the orientation of the intraocular lens measured by Itrace were used to calculate the position of the visual axis in the intraocular lens and the changes in the proportions of the distant and near power zones in the pupil area. RESULTS: The centration(R)of intraocular lens is 0.217±0.09mm. The distribution of the visual axis in the intraocular lens is 0.217±0.09mm. The visual axis is evenly distributed in the distant and near power zones. There was no statistical significance between the two groups with postoperative visual acuity ≥0.8 and 0.05). The size of the angle Kappa is 0.187±0.079mm. The displacement of angle Kappa on the y-axis is 0.10±0.06mm. There was no statistical significance between the changes in the pupil size of distant and near power zones in the pupil area caused by the deviation of the pupil and the postoperative visual acuity ≥0.8 and 0.05). CONCLUSION: The intraocular lens centration and axial data measured by the Itrace visual function analyzer can be used to estimate the area where the visual axis is located and the size of the distant and near power zones in the pupil area, thereby assisting in evaluating the postoperative visual quality of the regional refraction multifocal intraocular lens implanted after cataract surgery.
