Preliminary Feasibility of Contrast Sensitivity Testing Using the IMO vifa Perimeter After Cataract Surgery

Purpose

To evaluate the feasibility of contrast sensitivity (CS) testing using a head-mounted binocular perimeter (IMO vifa) and to describe postoperative CS in eyes implanted with three types of intraocular lenses (IOLs). Patients and Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 102 eyes of 71 patients who underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery with implantation of a segmented refractive IOL (Lentis Comfort [LC], 38 eyes), an enhanced monofocal IOL (Tecnis Eyhance DIB00V [DIB], 33 eyes), or a standard monofocal IOL (Tecnis DCB00V [DCB], 31 eyes). CS was measured in each eye with both eyes open under photopic room lighting 1 month postoperatively, and the area under the log CS function (AULCSF) was calculated. Groups were compared using age-adjusted linear regression accounting for inter-eye correlation.
