ABSTRACT
In order to study the features of visual system (VS) recovery after multifocal correction we examined in dynamics visual functions and subjective satisfaction with sight quality in 64 patients (mean age 52 +/- 2.5 years) at different time after binocular implantation of apodized refractive-diffractive intraocular lens (IOL) Acrysof Restor. These patients before surgery and 30 healthy subjects (60 eyes, mean age 48 +/- 4.5 years) served as controls. Over 6 months after surgery progressive improvement of mean visual acuity in the main distances (40, 70-80 cm and 5 m), contrast sensitivity and subjective satisfaction were observed. Gradual increasing of VS resolution suggests the need of search of postoperative rehabilitation methods that would provide faster adaptation to new optical conditions.
