Abstract:
The extended depth-of-focus intraocular lenses (EDOF IOLs) represent one of the most exciting advancements in the field of lens surgery. EDOF IOLs promise an excellent visual experience, minimizing visual disturbances (ie, halos and glare) commonly associated with multifocal IOLs. The pros and cons of EDOF IOLs should be evaluated in comparison with other more traditional multifocal or monofocal IOLs. The aim of this review is to provide the most current information regarding EDOF IOLs for power calculating formulas, refractive outcomes, incidence of photic phenomena, and patient satisfaction.
