Abstract: BACKGROUND: Patient expectations for post-cataract surgery outcomes have risen. This study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction after bilateral implantation of enhanced monofocal IOL (RayOne EMV RAO200E) designed with positive spherical aberration, used for monovision with a 1.00 D offset. METHODS: Prospective, non-comparative, interventional case series. Patients underwent bilateral cataract surgery and implantation of an enhanced monofocal IOL (RayOne EMV IOL RAO200E, Rayner, Worthing, UK) with target refraction of -1.00 D in the non-dominant eye and emmetropia in the dominant eye. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were assessed 3 months postoperatively using the Spanish version of the Catquest-9SF and a self-administered questionnaire. Other outcome measures included subjective refraction, visual acuity at various distances, and contrast sensitivity. RESULTS: Both eyes of 51 patients were included (102 eyes). Three months postoperatively, all patients reported being satisfied or very satisfied with the overall surgical outcomes. The majority of patients reported that their vision during night driving was as good or better than before the surgery (95%); further, there was no difficulty in recognizing faces (93%), navigating uneven terrain (95%), and viewing prices while shopping (81%). The mean subjective spherical equivalent for dominant and non-dominant eyes were -0.24 ± 0.34 D and -0.86 ± 0.33 D, respectively. Binocular UDVA (4 m), UIVA (66 cm), and UNVA (40 cm) were 0.06 ± 0.09, 0.25 ± 0.12, and 0.30 ± 0.11 logMAR, respectively. Contrast sensitivity was within the population norms (CSV-1000). CONCLUSION: Monovision with the RayOne EMV IOL provided high patient satisfaction, with preserved contrast sensitivity, good distance vision, and functional intermediate and near vision.
