Summary

Purpose: To evaluate the properties and clinical outcomes after implantation the new hydrophobic intraocular lens CT LUCIA 601P in patients undergoing routine cataract surgery.

Material and Methods: The study included 38 patients (43 eyes), mean age 70 ± 8 years (range 56–91 years) with senile cataract. After phacoemulsification intraocular lens CT LUCIA 601P was implanted. Patients were evaluated at 4 months after surgery. We assessed uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction, keratometry and the incidence of posterior capsule opacification (PCO – Posterior capsule opacification).

Results: Before surgery the mean UCVA was 0.3 ± 0.18 and four months after surgery was 0.7 ± 0.15. The mean BCVA before surgery was 0.58 ± 0.21 and after surgery was 0.94 ± 0.08. PCO value was 0.199 ± 0.05, that means minimal incidence of PCO.

Conclusion: The new hydrophobic intraocular lens CT LUCIA 601P could be easily implanted and after surgery shows a high degree of biocompatibility in patients undergoing routine cataract surgery.
