Abstract

Introductions

Cataract is one of the main causes of visual impairment worldwide, and cataract surgery using phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures today.
Over recent years, many improvements in intraocular lenses have allowed for the development of a wide-spectrum of lenses beyond the traditional monofocal lens implants.
Extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOLs are a newer category of IOLs that aims to give an elongated focus of vision and eliminate the overlapping of near and far images caused by traditional MF IOLs, thus eliminating the halo effect; ideally, these IOLs should enhance intermediate and near visual performance, while minimally affecting distance vision.
Mini-monovision using traditional monofocal IOLs is a surgical option that corrects distance vision in the dominant eye; the non-dominant eye focuses intentionally for near to mid-range vision to achieve a wider range of functional vision.

AIM OF THE WORK
The aim of the work was to compare between visual outcomes in patients after phacoemulsification with pseudophakic mini monovision technique and a new aspheric Tecnis Eyhance IOL (ICB00).
