Quantifying glare phenomena in patients with different intraocular lenses using a standard and modified clinical straylight meter
Straylight measurements at 2.5 degrees using the modified technique showed higher straylight levels with Synergy when compared to PanOptix and monofocal IOLs, while the standard technique did not detect differences between IOLs. Straylight testing at smaller angles emerges as a sensitive measure to identify multifocal designs posing an increased risk of inducing photic phenomena in pseudophakic patients.
