Clinical outcomes. Postoperative follow-up results (12 months after surgery). (a) Postoperative uncorrected visual acuity compared with the preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA). (b) Changes in lines of CDVA. (c) Intended versus achieved correction (manifest refraction). (d) Distribution of postoperative spherical equivalent (predictability). (e) Distribution of preoperative and postoperative astigmatism. (f) Stability of the manifest refraction.
