Automated refraction after trifocal and trifocal toric intraocular lens implantation

To analyze the correlation between automated refraction and manifest refraction after implantation of a trifocal intraocular lens or its toric version. This cross-sectional study involved 105 eyes of 105 patients. Subjects were divided in two groups: 62 with trifocal (AcrySof PanOptix) and 43 with trifocal toric (AcrySof PanOptix Toric) intraocular lenses. Automated refraction was employed as starting point for obtaining the manifest refraction. Automated refraction and manifest refraction measurements were analyzed and compared using the vector analysis 3 months after the surgery. In both groups, the higher differences between automated refraction and manifest refraction measurements were found for the cylinder and the spherical equivalent (M). Cylinder values for PanOptix were: -0.60 ± 0.36 D with automated refraction and -0.17 ± 38 D with manifest refraction (
