Item Evaluation of quality of life after implantation of a new trifocal intraocular lens(2019) Akman, Ahmet; Asena, Leyla; Ozturk, Caner; Gungor, Sirel Gur; 0000-0001-6178-8362; 0000-0002-6848-203X; 30612749; E-5914-2016; AAD-5967-2021Purpose: To evaluate the vision-related quality of life (QOL) after implantation of a new trifocal intraocular lens (IOL), by using the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-14 (VF-14 QOL questionnaire). Setting: Baskent University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Ophthalmology, Ankara, Turkey. Design: Prospective noncomparative case series. Methods: Consecutive patients who had a new trifocal IOL (Pan-Optix) bilaterally implanted were included in the study. The vision-related QOL was assessed 3 months after the surgery in the second eye. The VF-14 QOL questionnaire was used, with a grading scale of 0, no difficulty; 1, a little difficulty; 2, moderate difficulty; 3, quite difficult; 4, impossible to perform. A subgroup of 14 patients, with an interval of at least 3 months between the surgery in the first eye and the surgery in the fellow eye, were also interviewed 3 months after the monocular IOL implantation. In this subgroup, the QOL with monocular and binocular implantation was compared. Results: The study comprised 48 patients. Reading small print, driving at night, and doing fine handwork were the most difficult tasks to perform, with the mean values of the VF-14 QOL questionnaire being 0.94 +/- 0.81 (SD), 0.89 +/- 0.68, and 0.64 +/- 0.67, respectively. Binocular implantation was associated with improvement in vision-related QOL when compared with monocular implantation, with significant differences in doing fine handwork such as sewing (P = .02) and using a computer (P = .03). Conclusions: With mean values of 1.00 or lower for each question, the results of the VF-14 QOL questionnaire indicated that patients who have the new trifocal IOL bilaterally implanted have an overall high satisfaction rate and a high vision-related QOL. (C) 2018 ASCRS and ESCRSItem Perioperative considerations and anesthesia management in patients with obstructive sleep apnea undergoing ophthalmic surgery(2019) Cok, Oya Y.; Seet, Edwin; Kumar, Chandra M.; Joshi, Girish P.; 31174989Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disorder characterized by breathing cessation caused by obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. It is associated with multiorgan comorbidities such as obesity, hypertension, heart failure, arrhythmias, diabetes mellitus, and stroke. Patients with OSA have an increased prevalence of ophthalmic disorders such as cataract, glaucoma, central serous retinopathy (detachment of retina, macular hole), eyelid laxity, keratoconus, and nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy; and some might require surgery. Given that OSA is associated with a high incidence of perioperative complications and more than 80% of surgical patients with OSA are unrecognized, all surgical patients should be screened for OSA (eg, STOP-Bang questionnaire) with comorbidities identified. Patients suspected or diagnosed with OSA scheduled for ophthalmic surgery should have their comorbid conditions optimized. This article includes a review of the literature and highlights best perioperative anesthesia practices in the management of ophthalmic surgical patients with OSA.
