The new multifocal Diffractiva-aA provides excellent visual

acuity at near and far distances as well as good intermediate

distance results

The Diffractiva-aA is able to provide a high rate of spectacle

independence and minimal photic phenomena at night

The excellent visual performance of the Diffractiva-aA is

reflected by the high level of patients’ satisfaction

The defocus curves show that, as expected, the trifocal

micro F (Physiol) provides better intermediate vision than the

two bifocal IOLs but the Diffractiva-aA outperforms the AT-

LISA (Zeiss).

The contrast sensitivity curves show that the Diffractiva-aA

outperforms the other MIOLs when patients are tested under

mesopic conditions and there is no loss of contrast sensitivity

when compared to its monofocal counterpart (Aspira)
