How patient axial length, corneal power and effective lens position affect the near-vision with a multifocal lens
Recently, Filomena and co-authors ( https://doi.org/10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000001502 ) presented evidence based scientific classification of partial and full range vision lenses. Based on their classification, I could summarize the following: a) IOLs that provide more than 2.3 diopter of pseudo-accommodation at .2 log mar (6/9.5 or 20/32) in the defocus curve can be classified as full range of vision IOLs b) IOLs that provide less than 2.3 diopter of pseudo-accommodation at

Find : Diameter of central Bull's Eye of diffractive multifocal IOL and to which focal point this light is dedicated to
Objective: This tool helps you to find following things: What is the true size of the diameter of the central bull's eye of the diffractive multifocal IOL Where is the light passing through the bull's eye dedicated to How to Use: A. Enter the add power of the diffractive IOL B. Enter the wavelength of light ( usually 550 or 555 nm of light is the industry standard) Example: A diffractive multifocal IOL of 3.75 add power claiming its central bull's eye zone to be .769 should d
