PURPOSE: To compare posterior capsule opacification (PCO) and glistenings 5 to 7 years after cataract surgery with implantation of 2 hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) and evaluate the effects on corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and contrast sensitivity.SETTING: St. Erik Eye Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.DESIGN: Randomized clinical trial.METHODS: Cataract surgery with standard phacoemulsification was performed in 1 eye of patients. The patients were randomized to an Acrysof SA60AT (1-piece IOL group) or a Sensar AR40e (3-piece IOL group), both hydrophobic acrylic IOLs with a sharp-edged design. Five to 7 years postoperatively, retroillumination images were obtained and the PCO area and severity (area affected within the capsulorhexis and severity) were evaluated using computer software. High-contrast (100%) and low-contrast (2.5%) CDVAs were measured. The neodymium:YAG laser capsulotomy rates were recorded. Scheimpflug images were obtained to evaluate glistenings, which were graded subjectively at the slitlamp and quantified objectively by digital image analysis using computer software.RESULTS: The study enrolled 80 patients. There were no significant differences in PCO between the 2 groups. The 3-piece IOL group had significantly fewer glistenings (P
