ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the power of accommodation with intraocular lens Model CU in patients after phacoemulsification.
Method: A longitudinal prospective study of 30 operated patients with cataract was made. In all patients an intraocular lens, model CU HUMAN OPTIC, was implanted. Follow up was done after 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 18 months.
Results: 100% of the patients presented a visual acuity of 20/40 or better, 8% displayed J1 3 months after the surgery, 66% presented J4 and 26% displayed worse J5.
Conclusions: We conclude that the lens CU provides a range of accommodation of 1.75 D.
