Abstract:
We measured the near point of accommodation in 59 patients (59 eyes), who were implanted with 3M diffractive multifocal intraocular lens, in order to evaluote the pseudoaccommodation Average amount of pseudoaccommodation were 3.65 diopter (standard deviation was 1.75) and it was greater than that of monofocal intraocular lens Far vision and age did not affect the pseudoaccommodation. Near visual acuity alone appeared to have a positive correlation with pseudoaccommodation.
