| description | Negative dysphotopsia (ND) refers to the subjective perception of an arc-shaped darkness or shadow in the temporal field of vision. This condition occurs after uneventful cataract surgery with an in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL). To address this issue, supplementary implantation of conventional three-piece IOLs in the sulcus or dedicated supplementary Rayner Sulcoflex® IOL have been used successfully. The aim of this retrospective case series was to assess the effectiveness of resolving ND using a supplementary 1stQ AddOn® (Medicontur) IOL. The 1stQ AddOn® has a different design and optic size compared to the Rayner Sulcoflex®. Patients experiencing severe and persistent ND underwent supplementary implantation of the 1stQ AddOn® IOL. The primary outcome measure was the resolution of dysphotopsia. Nine eyes received the 1stQ AddOn® IOL, with complete symptom resolution observed in 6 eyes, partial improvement in 1 eye, and no change in 2 eyes. This indicates that supplementary implantation of the 1stQ AddOn® IOL can effectively and safely treat ND, performing equally well as the Rayner Sulcoflex®. The positive impact of sulcus-fixated supplementary IOLs seems to be related to the interaction between the central optic and the pupil margin. |
