Description
Nuozhou Wu led a 2026 prospective study, one that follows patients forward after treatment, on sight after cataract surgery with a special replacement lens. The lens gives a wider range of focus without the split-light design of older lenses. The study asked whether two eye alignment angles affect results.
The team enrolled 115 cataract patients, one eye each, who received the AcrySof IQ Vivity lens. Three months after surgery they measured the angles under bright and dim light and checked vision, optical quality, contrast, and patient-reported glare or halos. Most angle values stayed in the usual range. For angle kappa, the analyses found no clear links with the vision outcomes measured.
