I write to present the results of a comparative study of clinical outcomes obtained with two different types of tinted intraocular lenses （IOLs）, yellow-vs violet-tinted IOLs. IOLs containing a yellow chromophore that filters simultaneously ultra violet （UV） and blue light were developed several years ago in the attempt of avoiding that blue and violet visible light reached the retina in the pseudophakic eye.展开更多
