Abstract

Background

To compare the visual efficacy and patient satisfaction between 2 toric IOLs (TIOL), enhanced for intermediate vision or monofocal.

Methods

A retrospective chart review was performed of 100 eyes from 68 astigmatic patients who underwent cataract surgery with implantation of a Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Irvine, CA, USA) (Group 1, 50 eyes) or Tecnis TIOL (Group 2, 50 eyes). The uncorrected distant (UDVA), intermediate (UIVA), and near (UNVA) visual acuities; residual refractive astigmatism; defocus curve; and IOL axis rotation were evaluated at 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months postoperatively.

Results

The postoperative UDVA and UNVA refractive astigmatism values of the two groups were better than the preoperative measurements (P < 0.05), but there was no statistical difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The postoperative UIVA of group 1 (0.18 ± 0.15 logMAR) was significantly better than that of group 2 (0.30 ± 0.25) (P < 0.05). The mean postoperative IOL rotation of group 1 (2.51 ± 0.79°) was lower than that of group 2 (3.02 ± 0.84°) (P < 0.05). Overall satisfaction of group 1 (1.27 ± 0.47) was better than that of group 2 (2.02 ± 0.53) (P < 0.05).

Conclusions

The Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL demonstrated less postoperative IOL rotation and excellent uncorrected intermediate vision compared with the Tecnis TIOL. Near visual acuity and overall satisfaction with the Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL were also higher than those with the Tecnis TIOL.

Introduction

Approximately 60% of patients who have undergone cataract surgery have greater than 0.75 diopters (D) of corneal astigmatism, and 20% have astigmatism of 1.5 D or greater [1, 2]. Even after cataract surgery, patients would have lower visual acuity and increased spectacle dependence if such astigmatism is not corrected [3]. Toric intraocular lenses (TIOLs) can improve uncorrected visual acuity in cataract patients by resolving both the opaque lens and the corneal astigmatism [4]. A 1° rotation of a TIOL results in a 3% decrease of effective cylinder power. When the TIOL is rotated by 30° following cataract surgery, the full corrective impact of astigmatism is lost [5].

In everyday life, intermediate distance tasks such as eating, computer work, and looking at the dashboard of a car are important and must be considered for every patient after cataract surgery [6, 7]. Therefore, IOLs that decrease spectacle dependence for intermediate vision are attractive for cataract patients [8].

An enhanced monofocal TIOL with a modified aspheric anterior surface and a continuous power profile has recently been designed to increase intermediate vision. The lens also has frosted haptics to significantly increase rotational stability after cataract surgery [9].

Several studies have analyzed the rotational stability of the enhanced monofocal TIOL [9, 10]. In the present study, we aim to compare intermediate visual efficacy and patient satisfaction with the enhanced monofocal TIOL and basic monofocal TIOL in cataract patients with corneal astigmatism.

Methods

This study was a retrospective data analysis carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by Bucheon St. Mary Hospital's Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Ethics Committee.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

A total of 100 eyes from 68 patients with greater than 1.0 D of total corneal astigmatism was included from January 2023 to December 2024. To minimize potential selection biases in a retrospective study, we included patients randomly based on the inclusion criteria. Eligible subjects were those who had total corneal astigmatism from 1.0 to 2.5 D and axial length from 22.0–25.0 mm. Nuclear opacity grades 3–4 were included based on the Lens Opacities Classification System III. Patients with bilateral cataract received the same type of IOL in both eyes. Patients with the following conditions that could affect clinical parameters were excluded: degenerative corneal disease, ectatic corneal disease, lens subluxation/dislocation, or amblyopia. We followed study reporting guidelines and a study flowchart (https://www.equator-network.org/reporting-guidelines/).

Patient examination

Data from astigmatic patients who underwent cataract surgery with implantation of a Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Irvine, CA, USA) (Group 1: DIU IOL, 50 eyes) or Tecnis TIOL (Group 2: ZCT IOL, 50 eyes) were collected retrospectively. Every patient underwent a total ophthalmological examination, and their perioperative information was recorded. Uncorrected and corrected distant, intermediate, and near visual acuities were recorded as logMAR at 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after surgery. Manifest refraction, keratometry, and biometry with the IOLMaster partial coherence interferometry device (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG); corneal topography (Pentacam®, Oculus, Germany); slit lamp examination; and dilated funduscopy were performed. The web-based toric calculator provided by the IOL manufacturer was used to calculate the required cylinder power and axis for each implanted IOL. Surgically-induced astigmatism was set at 0.5 diopters. The Scheimpflug system (Pentacam®, Oculus, Germany) was used to determine total corneal astigmatism. Patient satisfaction was assessed with a Cataract TyPE Specification questionnaire at 3 months after cataract surgery [11]. The subjective questionnaire was completed for each eye in patients who underwent bilateral cataract surgery. A score ranging from 0 to 100 was calculated for each dimension, and individual scores were combined to produce an unweighted overall score, also with a range of 0 to 100. The axis of toric IOL was measured with PicPickTools (NGWIN, Seoul, Korea) using a photograph of the anterior segment under pupil dilation from postoperative 1 day to 3 months. The mean angle rotation was calculated as the average of TIOL rotation values from postoperative 1 day to 3 months.

Operative procedures

With the patient sitting, the corneal limbus was marked at 0°, 90°, and 180° meridian after topical anesthetic eye drops were instilled. All patients received topical anesthetic by a single trained surgeon (E. C. K) utilizing a CENTURION® (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, TX, USA). Gentian violet was used to mark the corneal steep axis and 6.0 mm capsulotomy. A continuous curvilinear capsulotomy, hydrodissection, and hydrodelineation were performed. Phacoemulsification was performed using 2.75-mm-sized phacotips and infusion/aspiration (I/A) cannulas. A TIOL (Tecnis ZCT or DIU; Johnson & Johnson Vision, Irvine, CA, USA) was implanted in the capsular bag and was rotated to the total corneal astigmatism axis. The wound was hydrated with BSS. Gatifloxacin 0.3% (Gatiflo, Handok, Chungbuk, Korea) and fluorometholone acetate 0.01% (Ocumetholone, Samil, Seoul, Korea) eye drops were instilled postoperatively 4 times a day for 4 weeks.

Statistical analysis

SPSS for Windows, version 21.0.1 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL) was used to perform statistical analyses. A power analysis was conducted to estimate minimum needed sample size. To compare pre- and postoperative VA, as well as refractive and keratometer astigmatism values, the Wilcoxon signed rank test was performed. Mann–Whitney tests were used to compare the two groups. P values less than 0.05 were deemed statistically significant.

Results

The preoperative characteristics of patients in each group are demonstrated in Table 1. There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, preoperative UCVA or CDVA, refractive astigmatism, or total corneal astigmatism (p > 0.05).

Defocus curve

The defocus curves observed in both groups at 3 months after cataract surgery are shown in Fig. 1. Both curves indicate a peak at defocus of 0.00 D (4 m) and a decrease in visual acuity as negative defocus increased. The Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL showed significantly better defocus at -1.5 D and -2.0 D (corresponding to 66–50 cm) compared with the Tecnis Toric IOL (P < 0.05) (Fig. 1).

Discussion

Correction of astigmatism and presbyopia after cataract surgery is becoming more prevalent and popular among patients [8]. Because of the good clinical outcomes and increasing patient demand, the use of TIOLs in cataract surgery to correct corneal astigmatism has increased in popularity [12, 13]. Uncorrected vision after TIOL implantation, on the other hand, varies according to postoperative residual astigmatism change due to IOL axis rotation [3, 14]. To treat presbyopia in cataract patients, implantation of a multifocal IOL has been popular due to its excellent near vision; however, this type of lens causes a larger halo that is associated with a worse low-contrast UDVA and visual acuity [15]. The Tecnis Eyhance IOL can provide good intermediate vision while maintaining a visual acuity similar to that of a monofocal IOL [8].

The rotational stability of the Tecnis TIOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., Santa Ana, CA, US) has been reported, but the methodology used to assess “rotational stability” was not disclosed in the studies [1618]. In addition, some patients required repositioning surgery [19, 20]. The Tecnis Eyhance Toric II IOL has frosted haptics to increase surface friction between the capsular bag and the lens, as well as a constant power profile optic to improve intermediate vision [10, 2123].

Takaku R et al. reported higher rotational stability in Toric II IOL than the Toric I IOL, with lower residual manifest astigmatism (p = 0.018), lower axis misalignment (p = 0.04), lower incidence of misalignment > 10º (p = 0.0044), and smaller prediction errors (p= 0.043) [9]. Osawa R. et al. reported the same results with rotational stability and an incidence of misalignment > 10º but showed no significant differences in residual astigmatism. [10]

In our results, the axis rotation of group 1 was significantly smaller than that of group 2 from postoperative 1 day to 3 months (P < 0.05) (Fig. 2). However, there was no significant difference in residual astigmatism or percentage of eyes with misalignment > 10° (group 1: 2%, group 2: 3%) (P > 0.05).

Takaku R. et al. and Osawa R. et al. reported no significant differences in UDVA and CDVA between TECNIS Eyhance Toric II IOL and TECNIS TIOL. [9, 10]

In our results, there were no significant differences between the two IOLs in UDVA, CDVA, and UNVA. However, the UDVA and UNVA of group 1 were numerically higher than those of group 2 (P > 0.05). The uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA) of group 1 (0.18 ± 0.15 logMAR) was significantly better than that of group 2 (0.30 ± 0.25) (P < 0.05) (Table 2). Mencucci R. et al. reported better monocular and binocular UIVA in the Eyhance nontoric IOL compared with the Tecnis nontoric IOL. [8] In our results, there were no significant differences in far vision satisfaction, glare, and halo between the two groups (p > 0.05). Mencucci R. et al. also described no significant differences in glare and halo perception, photopic contrast sensitivity, MTF cutoff, OSI, and Strehl ratio between the Eyhance nontoric IOL and Tecnis nontoric IOL. [8]

In our results, the near vision and overall satisfaction of group 1 (1.53 ± 0.65, 1.27 ± 0.47, respectively) were significantly better than those of group 2 (1.97 ± 0.97, 2.02 ± 0.53, respectively) (P < 0.05) (Table 4).

The results of UNVA and satisfaction score for near vision do not coincide in this study. As the UNVA of the Tecnis Eyhance Toric II was numerically but not statistically higher than that of the Tecnis Toric, we thought that the subjective near vision satisfaction of the Tecnis Eyhance Toric II might be better than that of the Tecnis Toric. Because the TECNIS Eyhance Toric II has been shown to be better for intermediate vision, we wanted to compare the differences of far and near vision satisfaction between the IOLs. The non-significantly higher glare and halo score of group 1 was indicates that some patients are concerned about night driving and TV viewing in a dark environment after implantation of the Tecnis Eyhance Toric II.

The time differences between the first eye and the second eye cannot influence the subjective aspect of the study because the time difference was just from 1 day to 1 week.

In this study, we compared the intermediate visual efficacy and patient satisfaction of the enhanced monofocal TIOL and original monofocal TIOL in cataract patients with corneal astigmatism.

Limitations of our investigation were use of data from a single center, use of a small number of patients, and a short follow-up period. Further studies are needed to verify the efficacy of the Tecnis Eyhance TIOL compared to the Tecnis TIOL.

In conclusion, the Tecnis Eyhance TIOL may be a better option in cataract patients with astigmatism. This TIOL shows better spectacle independence for intermediate vision and higher rotational stability than the original Tecnis TIOL while maintaining similar visual acuity.
