Comparative Evaluation of Visual Outcomes in Combined Cataract and Vitrectomy for Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane with an Advanced or Conventional Intraocular Lens

Abstract: Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of new monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) in comparison with conventional monofocal IOL in patients undergoing combined cataract and vitrectomy surgery for epiretinal membrane (ERM). Methods: This prospective non-randomized comparative study included 65 eyes of 65 patients who underwent combined cataract and vitrectomy for ERM with implantation of advanced monofocal IOL (Eyhance ICB00, 33 patients) and standard monofocal IOL (Tecnis ZCB00, 32 patients). Monocular visual acuities were measured 6 months post-operatively, including corrected and uncorrected distance visual acuity (CDVA, UCDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA), and uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA). Furthermore, contrast sensitivity and metamorphopsia were measured. Results: There was no significant difference between two groups regarding operation time, post-operative CDVA, UCDVA, UCNVA, and spherical equivalent (p > 0.05). Monocular UCIVA was significantly higher in the Eyhance IOL group than in the Tecnis IOL group (p = 0.005). The photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivities were comparable between each group for any spatial frequency (p > 0.05). The correlation coefficients from correlations between retinal wrinkling ratio and M score did not differ significantly between groups (p = 0.877), and the degree of metamorphopsia was not significantly related to the type of IOL (p = 0.969). Conclusions: In combined cataract and vitrectomy for ERM, Eyhance IOL provided significant better visual performance at intermediate distance than standard monofocal IOL without compromising operation time, distance vision, contrast sensitivity, and evaluating metamorphopsia. Eyhance IOL can be a useful option for both surgeons and patients.
