Wavefront Analysis and Contrast Sensitivity of Aspheric and Spherical Intraocular Lenses: A Randomized Prospective Study

After 90 days, all eyes had postoperative BSCVA ≥20/32. The AcrySofIQ IOL showed statistically significant less induction of spherical aberration (P < .001) when compared with the AMOSensar and the AcrySofNatural IOLs. The AMOSensar presented significantly less spherical aberration then the AcrySofNatural (P < .05). The AcrySofIQ also had lower values of total and high-order aberration (HOA) (P < .05) when compared with the AMOSensar and the AcrySofNatural. The mean values of trefoil 9, coma, and HOA root mean square (RMS) decreased between one and three months (P < .001, P < .001, P = .023, P < .001, respectively) in all groups. Mean Pelli-Robson contrast sensitivity values in photopic condition were similar between the groups. The AcrySofIQ showed better results in 3cpd spatial frequency in mesopic condition using FACT-Optec 6500 (P = .008), although there were no statistical differences in photopic and mesopic with glare conditions.
