Patients who underwent mini-monovision (with bilateral myopic defocus, MM-BMD) surgery for presbyopia correction with monofocal intraocular lenses implantation are supposed to have sufficient uncorrected vision capacity for activities of daily living (ADLs) that require: a) distant vision(DV), (ie. driving), b) intermediate vision (IV), (ie. computer word processing), c) near vision (NV), (ie. book reading). Primary objectives of the study are: 1) the development of a series of tasks in a research setting that will simulate common ADLs that require DV, IV, and NV. 2) the identification of potential correlations of the tasks in the research setting with demographic, clinical and other parameters of the study participants.

Visual capacity (VC) is variable comprised by three sub-variables: a) (DVC) Visual capacity for activities requiring distant vision, b) (IVC) Visual capacity for activities requiring intermediate vision, and c) (NVC) Visual capacity for activities requiring near vision. VC will be measured in a scale from 1 to 100 as the sum of the DVC, IVC and NVC
Eye Institute Of thrace
Alexandroupoli, Evros, Greece
RECRUITINGAssessment of Visual capacity (VC)
VC will be measured as the sum of DVC, IVC, and NVC
Time frame: 1 year following mini-monovision correction surgery
Visual capacity for activities that require distant vision (DVC)
DVC score will be measured by the performance score in the following ADLs: a) walking specific pathway, 2) walking up stairs, 3) walking down stairs, 4) day-time driving simulation, 5) night-time driving simulation
Time frame: 1 year following mini-monovision correction surgery
Visual capacity for activities that require intermediate vision (IVC)
IVC score will be measured by the performance score in the following ADLs: a) reading ability of movie subtitles, b) reading ability of a predefined computer screen text, c) reading a supermarket badge
Time frame: 1 year following mini-monovision correction surgery
Visual capacity for activities that require near vision (NVC)
NVC score will be measured by the performance score in the following ADLs: a) cellular phone directory entry search, b) reading of message in a cellular phone, c) reading a medical prescription, d) reading a public phonebook
Time frame: 1 year following mini-monovision correction surgery
