Sažetak

Blue light can damage retina and cause age related macular degeneration. After cataract surgery and lens removal
retina stays unprotected. Blue light filtering intraocular lenses (IOL) increase protection of the retina. In our prospective
study we investigated clinical results after billateral implantation of Acrysof Natural IOL to 30 patients (N=60 eyes). In
a control group (N=60 eyes, 30 patients), standard acrysof IOL was implanted bilaterally. Uncorrected visual acuity
(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and Nd YAG laser capsulotomy rate were measured and compared with control
group. Subjective patient's satisfaction and subjective colour perception were also investigated. There was no significant
difference in UCVA, BCVA and Nd YAG laser capsulotomy rate between the two groups. High patient's satisfaction
was noticed (96,7% of patients would implant Acrysof Natural IOL again). Acrysof Natural IOL enables good visual
acuity VA, low rate of Nd YAG laser capsulotomy and high patient's satisfaction without colour perception disturbances.
