Slimming diet for a Multifocal IOL
Peculiarities of Models
Micro-Incision vs. Modified “C” G. Gallo M.D.*
G. Rubiolini M.D.** Italywww.grvision.com
The Micro-Incision Phaco procedure is widely becoming the “Standard” for Cataract surgery. This means ALL Multifocal IOLs “Diffractive” & “Refractive” must be injected with a <2.2mm Corneal Tunnel. Due to their “Optical Geometry” Diffractive lenses have dominated because Modified “C” lenses can have problems with cartridges of <2.75mm.
- PURPOSE -
Contd.
Can a new Refractive, “Progressive” Multifocal, Micro-Incision Plate style IOL using new “Optical Geometry” be implanted using a <2.2mm tunnel and be as successful as a Modified “C” IOL using a 2.75mm corneal tunnel ?

PRESBIOPTICxTM by Imperial Medical, Cartersville, GA USA. The characteristic absence of lines is an IMT - Patent Pend.
THE IMT SOLUTION - NO LINES
EMPLOYING“THREE DIMENTIONAL CLOTHOID
CURVE” TECHNOLOGY
• Engineers reduced the thickness of the optic disc.• Eliminated areas for Halos & Glare.• Maintained the visual outcomes of the Mod “C” version. Patent Pend.

- IMPLANT STRATEGY -• Progressive addition of multifocality with the customized option with the second IOL implant.• First lens Implanted – If emmetropia & near vision achieved the second lens is identical or…• First lens implanted – If near vision is not achieved the second lens can easily correct the problem.
-MODIFIED “C”- VS. -MICRO INCISION-
• 35 Patients - 20F &15M Avg. 56yrs.• Bilateral Progressive Multi-Focal IOL implants with a non-linear reading add from +3.6D to +4.5D (Progressive) during surgery.
• PRESBIOPTICx C-LOOP by IMT.
• Exclusion criteria included but not limited to astigmatism >1D, dia- betic retinopathy, maculopathy & previous ocular surgery.
•17 patients - 8F & 9M Avg. 52yrs. • Bilateral Progressive Multi-Focal IOL implants with a non-linear reading add from +3.6D to +4.0D (Progressive) during surgery.• PRESBIOPTICx Micro by IMT• Exclusion criteria included but not limited to astigmatism >1D, dia- betic retinopathy, maculopathy & previous ocular surgery.
-MODIFIED “C”- VS. -MICRO INCISION-• Total freedom from glasses 28
patients (>80%) w/ two similar near addition implants.• 5 patients received an extra 0.30D addition for the 2nd eye • Total – 33 (95%) achieved J2 best uncorrected near visual acuity with bilateral vision.• 100% of the patients achieved 20/25 or better uncorrected visual acuity for distance.• 2 Patients (60-90days) complained some temporary night vision problems such as glare, halos and sparkles (5,7%).
•Total freedom from glasses 15 patients (>88%) w/ two similar near addition implants.• 2 patients received an extra 0.20D addition for the 2nd eye. •Total – 17 (100%) achieved J2 best uncorrected near visual acuity with bilateral vision.•100% of the patients achieved 20/25 or better uncorrected visual acuity for distance.•2 Patients (30-60days) complained some temporary night vision problems such as glare, halos and sparkles (11,7%).

- CONCLUSION -• The Micro-Incision version (HP60PM) of the IMT HP60CM, “Progressive” Refractive Multifocal IOL provides an excellent visual acuity for distance & near and it can be customized in the 2nd eye to achieve a full range of vision.
• Full range of vision can be achieved in 100% of the cases .• <2,2mm corneal tunnel can be successfully used for this IOL due to a slimming diet from the original Mod-C version IOL.
