MONOFOCAL INTRAOCULAR LENS WITH ENHANCED INTERMEDIATE FUNCTION AS SUBSTITUTE FOR MULTIFOCAL INTRAOCULAR LENS IN POSITIVE DYSPHOTOPSIA

Monofocal intraocular lens with enhanced intermediate function as substitute for multifocal intraocular lens in positive dysphotopsia

Purpose: To present a case of a 62-year-old patient implanted with multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) who underwent a bilateral IOL exchange due to positive dysphotopsia.In an attempt to reduce the symptoms and compensate for the loss of multifocality, we implanted an aspheric monofocal IOL with enhanced intermediate function in one eye and a sph
