Methods: A total of 13 eyes of 12 age-related macular degeneration patients with senile cataract were enrolled. Selection of the patients was done by means of a low vision diagnostic and rehabilitative program (IOL-Vip software) that evaluates residual visual function. After standard phacoemulsification surgery, the incision site was enlarged and the IOL-Vip Revolution system was implanted in the capsular bag. the outcome measures were best corrected visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, anterior chamber depth, endothelial cell density, central corneal thickness, and quality-of-life questionnaire. Results: the mean age of the subjects was 72.3 +/- 8.5 years. the mean positive power of the intraocular lens was 59 +/- 2 D and the negative intraocular lens power was standard (-46 D). Pre- and postoperative best corrected visual acuity were 1.08 +/- 0.14 and 0.81 +/- 0.16 logMAR in the operated eye and 1.13 +/- 0.36 and 1.01 +/- 0.40 logMAR in the unoperated eye, respectively. the best corrected visual acuity was increased significantly in both operated and unoperated eyes (p = 0.005 and 0.021, respectively). Quality of life and anterior chamber depth increased significantly (p = 0.018 and 0.008, respectively), while endothelial cell density decreased (p = 0.002). No significant differences were detected in central corneal thickness or contrast sensitivity (p = 0.133 and 0.684, respectively). Conclusion: the results showed that IOL-Vip Revolution telescopic intraocular lens is a promising treatment option in age-related macular degeneration patients. the rehabilitation program may have an important role in the restored clinical results, which also provided visual improvement in the unoperated eyes.en10.1177/1120672118803831info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAge-related macular degenerationcataractIOL-Vip Revolution systemtelescopic intraocular lensArticle296615620WOS:00048964040000630280594Q3
