dcterms.abstractIntroduction Foldable hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) are prone to develop a long-term postoperative material change called glistenings. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the predisposition for glistening formation in one type of hydrophobic acrylic IOL material from its introduction to the present day. Methods In a laboratory setup, an in vitro model was used to induce glistenings in hydrophobic acrylic IOLs manufactured by one company (Alcon, Fort Worth, TX, USA) in different years: 23 1990s-manufacture hydrophobic acrylic three-piece IOLs (MA30BA/MA60AC) that were explanted in 1996 and 1997, and five of each of the newer AcrySof IOL models (MA60AC, SA60AT, TFNT00 and SN60WF) from 2014 to 2017. Furthermore, five Clareon (SY60WF) IOLs were put through the same accelerated aging procedure. The number of microvacuoles per square millimeter (MV/mm²) was determined in the central part of each IOL optic and compared between the groups. Results The mean number of MV was highest in the 1990s-manufacture Alcon acrylic IOLs, with 1289 (± 738) MV/mm². The number decreased to 650 (± 101), 192 (± 105), 175 (± 112) and 47 (± 26) for MA60AC, SA60AT, TFNT00 and SN60WF, respectively. The lowest count was obtained in the Clareon group, with 1 (± 1) MV/mm². Conclusions A high number of glistenings was induced in the explanted IOLs from the 1990s. The propensity for glistening formation decreased considerably after that decade and now in current use. Even though in vitro glistening formation in today’s AcrySof material was low, the Clareon material was essentially glistenings-free.eng
