From: Comparisons of the in-the-bag stabilities of single-piece and three-piece intraocular lenses for age-related cataract patients: a randomized controlled trial

 

Group A

(single-piece IOL)

Group B

(three-piece IOL)

Mean ± SD

Axial movement

−0.22 ± 0.23 mm*

Decentration

221 ± 167 μm

  1. The axial movement, decentration and tilt of the two IOLs are presented in Table 2. At the 3-month postoperative visit, the 3-piece IOLs displayed forward axial movement (−0.22 ± 0.23 mm, p < 0.0001) (*p < 0.05). The single-piece IOLs displayed 221 ± 167 μm decentration, whereas the 3-piece IOLs exhibited 198 ± 165 μm decentration. Notes: IOL intraocular lens, SD standard deviation
