Summary Purpose To compare the clinical results of the Lumina accommodative intraocular lens (IOL) with a standard monofocal IOL. Methods Clinical study including 86 eyes that underwent cataract surgery. The study group included 61 eyes implanted with the Lumina. The control group included 25 eyes implanted with an Acrysof monofocal IOL. Visual function, contrast sensitivity (CS) and accommodation with an open‐field autorefractor were measured during 1 year. Results Uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) was 0.07 ± 0.08 LogRAD for the Lumina group and 0.37 ± 0.19 in control group (p < 0.01); corrected distance near visual acuity (CDNVA) was 0.11 ± 0.12 for the Lumina group and 0.41 ± 0.15 for the control group (p < 0.01). Defocus curves showed significant better results for the Lumina group for defocus ranging from −4.50 to −0.50D (p < 0.01). Accommodation was 0.63 ± 0.41, 0.91 ± 0.51 and 1.27 ± 0.76D for the Lumina group and 0.10 ± 0.15, 0.06 ± and 0.07 ± 0.10D for the control group at accommodation stimuli of 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0D, respectively. CS was the same for both groups (p ≥ 0.26). Conclusions The Lumina accommodative IOL effectively restores the visual function and accommodation after cataract surgery with no influence on the postoperative CS.
