BACKGROUND: To explore intraocular lens (IOL) preferences of United Kingdom-based (UK) refractive surgeons in cataract and refractive lens exchange (RLE) surgery.
METHODS: An online survey on IOL preferences (and reasons for their choice) in cataract and RLE surgery was distributed. It also enquired about implementing mini-monovision with extended depth of field (EDoF) IOLs, about utilising IOL mix-and-match (different IOL types in each eye), and at what level of corneal astigmatism they prefer toric lenses.
RESULTS: Following an 81.6% response rate, thirty responses were analysed; median years of refractive surgery experience was 12.5. The most popular IOL choices for cataract surgery were EDoF lenses (30%), monofocals (20%), and trifocals (20%). The most cited reason for each was better overall visual outcomes (88.9%), fewer unwanted symptoms (66.7%) and best spectacle independence (66.7%), respectively. For RLE, EDoF remained most popular (36.7%), followed by trifocals (30%), and multifocals (16.7%) with the same reasons for choice cited above. Mini-monovision with EDoF lenses was well-regarded (83% recommend for most/select patients), unlike utilising IOL mix-and-match (60% did not recommend). 40% prefer toric IOLs for astigmatism of 1 dioptre (D) or higher, whilst 30% opt for them at < 1D.
CONCLUSIONS: Experienced UK refractive surgeons prefer newer IOLs with enhanced optics; ≥50% of respondents favoured either EDoF or trifocals for a 'typical' cataract or RLE patient. Notably, respondents have a low corneal astigmatism threshold for toric lenses. Mini-monovision with EDoF IOLs was well-regarded, whilst mix-and-match of different IOL types was less recommended.
