At all intervals studied, there were also no statistically significant differences between the groups with regard to the frequency that each achieved an SE within ±0.25 D, ±0.50 D, and ±1.00 D of emmetropia (all P >0.05); there was, however, a trend that failed to reach statistical significance favoring approximately a 40% higher frequency of attaining a refraction within ±0.25 D of emmetropia in the WF-guided group at postoperative month 12 (81.8% [48.2–97.7] vs 36.4% [10.9–69.2]; P =0.13) ( Table 3 , Figure 2A and B ).

In the WF-optimized group, 5% contrast sensitivity showed a statistically significant decrease of almost one Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study line at 12 months compared to preoperative measurements; 25% contrast sensitivity also decreased by less than one line, but did not reach statistical significance (preoperative vs 12 months: <5% contrast sensitivity, 0.18±0.10 vs 0.26±0.10 logMAR [slightly worse than 20/30 vs slightly worse than 20/35]; <25% contrast sensitivity, 0.19±0.07 vs 0.25±0.14 logMAR [slightly worse than 20/30 vs slightly better than 20/35]; P =0.04, P =0.14, respectively).
