Comparison of 3-month clinical outcomes between two enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses: A single-center prospective study

This study aims to compare the 3-month clinical outcomes between two enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) following cataract surgery.Setting: Eye Clinic of Careggi University Hospital, Florence, Italy. Single-center prospective study. We included patients with cataract and corneal astigmatism less than 0.75 D, with no ocular comorbidities, who underwent unilateral cataract surgery with implantation of either the Tecnis Eyhance ICB00 ( = 25) or Evolux ( = 25) IOLs. Standard cataract procedures were performed without complications. The main outcome measures included uncorrected and corrected visual acuity at distance (4 m), intermediate (60 cm) and near (40 cm) at 3-month follow-up. Additionally, monocular defocus curves, aberrometric profiles, and perceptions of halo and glare were evaluated. The study involved 50 patients (26 male, 24 female) with a mean age of 68 ± 8 years. Preoperative characteristics were similar between the groups, and no intraoperative or postoperative complications were reported. Statistically significant differences were observed between the groups, with the Evolux IOL showing superior results (
