Visual Quality and Performance of Eyes With Asqelio™ EDoF Toric Lenses

In Situ Analysis of the Optical Quality and Visual Solvency of Eyes Implanted Bilaterally With the Asqelio™ EDoF Toric Extended-focus Intraocular Lens

This study evaluates the optical quality and clinical performance of the Asqelio™ EDOF Toric intraocular lens (IOL) in patients undergoing cataract surgery or refractive lensectomy. The Asqelio™ EDOF Toric IOL aims to provide improved vision at various distances and correct astigmatism compared to monofocal IOLs. Postoperative outcomes, including visual clarity, refractive correction, and patient satisfaction, will be assessed three months after surgery.

Cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures worldwide, typically involving the replacement of the cloudy natural lens with an intraocular lens (IOL). Traditional monofocal IOLs correct vision for a single distance but do not address intermediate or near vision, leading to dependence on glasses. The Asqelio™ EDOF Toric IOL is designed to provide extended depth of focus, smoother transitions across distances, and astigmatism correction, potentially enhancing overall visual quality and reducing the need for glasses.

This study compares the optical performance and patient outcomes of the Asqelio™ EDOF Toric IOL with those of monofocal IOLs. Key measures include optical quality, visual acuity at multiple distances, refractive correction, and patient-reported satisfaction. Results will be collected during a three-month postoperative follow-up. The findings aim to inform the effectiveness of the Asqelio™ EDOF Toric IOL in improving visual outcomes and quality of life for patients.
