| Abstract | PURPOSE: To evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes and quality of life after implantation of a multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) with a surface-embedded near section. SETTING: Private practice, United Kingdom. DESIGN: Case series. METHODS: This study comprised patients who had implantation of a Lentis Mplus multifocal IOL after phacoemulsification. The main outcome measures were refraction, uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities (logMAR), uncorrected (UNVA) and corrected (CNVA) near visual acuities (M notation), reading speed (Radner reading chart), contrast sensitivity (Pelli-Robson), and Quality of Life Impact of Refractive Correction (QIRC) questionnaire scores. A +3.00 diopter (D) reading addition (add) IOL was placed in the nondominant eye and a +1.50 D add IOL in the dominant eye. RESULTS: The study enrolled 44 eyes of 22 patients (mean age 59.9 years). The mean values 3 months postoperatively were UDVA, 0.04 logMAR ± 0.25 (SD); contrast sensitivity, 1.57 ± 0.13 logCS; near vision, M0.75 ± 0.33 at 32 cm and M0.90 ± 0.27 at 66 cm; reading speed, 161.74 words/minute; sphere, 0.08 ± 0.58 D; astigmatism, -0.60 ± 0.50 D; CDVA, -0.08 ± 0.07 logMAR. With best correction, intermediate (66 cm) and near (32 cm) vision were M0.89 ± 0.26 and M0.74 ± 0.32, respectively. The mean binocular UNVA at the preferred viewing distance was M0.57 ± 0.18, improving to M0.54 ± 0.19 with distance correction. The mean QIRC score improved from 42.15 ± 4.66 to 51.14 ± 8.22. CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative visual acuity was good with high-level contrast sensitivity, producing significant improvement in quality of life. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
