Abstract
Introduction & Background: Crossed pseudophakic mono-vision appears to work as well as conventional pseudophakic mono-vision in terms of patient satisfaction, visual function and spectacle independence as long as anisometropia at mild 1.0 to 1.25 D level and potential contraindications were avoided. Crossed pseudophakic mono-vision has not been studied much in literature. Purpose: To compare crossed vs. conventional pseudophakic mono-vision. Methods: 7,311 cataract surgery records from 6/1999 to 12/2013 were reviewed. 40 crossed monovision were identified and 30 of them were enrolled. Thirty control conventional monovision cases were matched with very detailed items. Results: No significant difference was identified for eye-hand, eye-foot coordination, sport related depth perception between the two groups. No significant difference was identified for 6 of 8 spectacle independence measures but nighttime driving and intermediate distance were more favorable in the crossed monovision group. Patient satisfaction was also better in crossed group (p=0.028) Conclusion: Crossed IOL monovision appears to work as well as conventional IOL monovision with mild anisometropia at 1.0 to 1.25 D level.
