Abstract Purpose:We encounter cases of ocular fatigue after cataract surgery. It has been reported that application of 0.05% cyclopentolate is effective for phakic patients with asthenopia with accommodative spasms. We evaluated the effect of topical 0.05% cyclopentolate on pseudophakic patients with asthenopia.

Methods:In this retrospective, observational clinical study, patients with asthenopia after cataract surgery, with no known cause other than accommodative spasms were included. There were 6 patients(3 male, 3 female)with 11 eyes. 4 eyes had monofocal intraocular lenses(IOLs), and 7 eyes had multifocal IOLs. The average age was 68.8±5.4. Accommodative spasms were evaluated based on high frequency component(HFC)of micro fluctuations measured using an autorefractometer(Speedy-i, Right MFG. CO., Ltd.). We used a drop of 0.05% cyclopentolate everyday before sleep for the treatment. We evaluated accommodative spasms and subjective symptoms of asthenopia on the first day of treatment and on the evaluation day. Two-tailed Student's t-test was used for statistical analysis.

Results:Patients started their topical treatment 6.8±3.0 months postoperatively and the evaluation day was 1.7±1.2 months after initiating the treatment on average. All patients had elevated HFC values(68.6±5.0)on the day of treatment initiation and had significantly lower HFC values(58.8±2.4, p<0.01)on the evaluation day. Four of six patients, all of whom had multifocal IOLs, experienced relief from subjective symptoms.

Conclusions:Topical treatment with 0.05% cyclopentolate may be effective for asthenopia developing after cataract surgery, especially among patients with multifocal IOLs.
