摘要

The objective of this review was to provide a summary of the peer-reviewed literature on the etiologies of negative dysphotopsia that occurs after routine cataract surgery. A search of PubMed, Google Scholar, and Retina Medical identified 59 reports. Negative dysphotopsia has been associated with many types of intraocular lenses (IOLs), including hydrophobic and hydrophilic acrylic, silicone, and 1-piece and 3-piece designs. Proposed etiologies include edge design, edge smoothness, edge thickness, index of refraction of the IOL, pupil size, amount of functional nasal retina, edema from the clear corneal incision, distance between the iris and IOL, amount of pigmentation of the eye, corneal shape, prominent globe and shallow orbit, and interaction between the anterior capsulorhexis and IOL. Treatments include a piggyback IOL, reverse optic capture, dilation of the pupil, constriction of the pupil, neodymium:YAG capsulotomy of the nasal portion of the anterior capsule, IOL exchange with round-edged optics, and time alone. This review summarizes the findings.
