[Evaluation of visual quality and refractive outcomes of myopia with presbyopia after laser blended vision surgery].

<b>Objective:</b> To investigate the postoperative outcomes and visual quality following laser blended vision (LBV) surgery for the correction of myopia with presbyopia. <b>Methods:</b> This is a prospective study. A total of 50 patients (100 eyes) who underwent LBV surgery for myopia with presbyopia at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, between August 2021 and March 2022 were included. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA), best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) were measured preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively for the dominant eye, non-dominant eye, and both eyes. Effectiveness Index (EI) and Safety Index (SI) were calculated to evaluate refractive outcomes. Accommodation function and contrast sensitivity were assessed to evaluate functional vision. Objective visual quality was assessed using higher-order aberrations (HOAs) and a dual-channel visual quality analysis system. Subjective visual quality was evaluated using a questionnaire. <b>Results:</b> At 24 months postoperatively, the EI and SI for the dominant eye were 1.04±0.23 and 1.14±0.14, respectively, while for the non-dominant eye, they were 0.85±0.21 and 1.06±0.08, respectively. Although there were statistically significant differences in UNVA between the eyes at 1 and 3 months postoperatively (all <i>P</i><0.05), no significant differences were observed from 6 months onward (all <i>P</i>>0.05). At 6 months postoperatively, the UNVA for the dominant and non-dominant eyes were 0.07±0.13 and 0.03±0.13, respectively, with no significant difference (<i>P</i>>0.05). MRSE showed no significant differences at any follow-up time points up to 24 months. Accommodation function did not decrease compared to preoperative levels at any postoperative follow-up. Increases in HOAs were primarily due to spherical aberrations, and there were no significant differences in objective visual quality before and after surgery. Contrast sensitivity improved significantly at 24 months postoperatively compared to preoperative levels. At 24 months postoperatively, 11 out of 12 patients reported good visual quality in the questionnaire. <b>Conclusions:</b> LBV surgery gradually achieves good binocular blended vision within 6 months postoperatively and demonstrates good safety, efficacy, and stability at 24 months. It maintains good functional vision and visual quality with high postoperative patient satisfaction.
