AB Purpose: To assess the effect of EVO+ (V5) Visian implantable collamer lens implantation on mesopic visual performance, quality of vision (QoV), and quality of life (QoL).Design: Prospective interventional case series.Methods: Thirty-six eyes of 36 participants who underwent EVO+ implantation for myopia were evaluated preoperatively and at postoperative visits at 1 week and 1, 3, and 6 months. Visual acuity (VA) and mesopic contrast sensitivity (CS) with and without halogen- and xenon-type glare sources were evaluated at each visit. Subjective QoV was assessed with the QoV questionnaire and QoL assessed with the Quality of Life Impact of Refractive Correction (QIRC) questionnaire at each visit. Ring-shaped dysphotopsia was also assessed at each postoperative visit. Linear, cumulative link and logit mixed models were fitted to analyze the effect of the EVO+.Results: Following EVO+ implantation, VA significantly (P ≤ .012) improved at the 4 postoperative visits. Mesopic CS progressively improved at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively (P ≤ .012). Halogen glare CS decreased at 1 week and halogen and xenon glare CS improved at 6 months (P ≤ .016). Photostress recovery time after halogen glare improved at 3 and 6 months (P ≤ .004). QoV scores improved at 1 week and 3 and 6 months (P ≤ .001). QIRC scores improved postoperatively (P < .001). Ring-shaped dysphotopsia decreased at 3 and 6 months (P ≤ .007).Conclusions: EVO+ implantation provides good mesopic visual performance, QoV, and QoL during up to 6 months follow-up. Some activities performed under mesopic conditions with glare sources may be affected during the first postoperative week. Ring-shaped dysphotopsia is negligibly bothersome 6 months after surgery.
