Abstract : To assess the subjective of visual function, patients’ satisfaction, and visual outcome after cataract surgery was performed with multifocal intraocular lens. The study included patients with a bilateral visually significant cataract scheduled for phacoemulsification and multifocal lens (ReSTOR) implantation. Uncorrected distance and near visual acuity, and visual symptoms were recorded. Patients were interviewed for assessment of “near”, “intermediate” and “far” visual activities using a visual function index (VF-14). Patients rated their overall trouble with vision and satisfaction with visual outcome. Fifty-two eyes of 26 patients were evaluated and the mean age was 55 years. Postoperative distant acuity was 20/40 or better in 92.6% of eyes and near acuity was J3 or better in 88.9%. Five patients had transient visual symptoms; one had persistent halos around light. The overall VF-14 score was 83.9. The average score for items testing “near” visual tasks was 82.6 compared to a score of 85.8 for “intermediate” and 86.4 for “distance” visual tasks. Some patients were less satisfied with intermediate activity, especially in computer work. Most patients having cataract surgery with ReSTOR multifocal lenses were generally satisfied with their visual function for both distance and near, but not so with intermediate vision like computer work.
