The Effect of a Blue Light Filtering IOL
The Effect of a Blue Light Filtering Intraocular Lens on Blood Retinal Barrier After Cataract Surgery

To compare the effect on blood retinal barrier disruption 3 and 12 months after implantation of either a blue light filtering intraocular lens(blue-filtering IOL) or an ultraviolet light filtering intraocular lens(UV-filtering IOL).

The following parameters were measured for evaluation of blood retinal barrier disruption.

  • the incidence of macular leakage by fluorescence angiography (FA)
  • the mean fluorescein concentration in the vitreous by fluorophotometry (VFP)
  • the thickness of the macula by optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Results

  • the incidence fo macular leakage decreased significantly from 24%(3 months) to 5% (12 months) in the blue-filtering IOL group (P<0.05), and was significantly lower compared with the UV-filtering IOL group at 12 months.
  • the VFP significantly decreased in both group from 3 to 12 months.
  • the OCT decreased from 175 (3 months) to 166 um (12 months) in the blue- filtering IOL group.
