Better multifocal IOL for night vision

Hi,i am about to implant a multifocal IOL on my eye (this is my choice),and i have searched about the best multifocal IOL for night vision,that is,the lens able to offer least night visual aberrations (i have already a little of halos and starbust but these aberrations are minimum),according to experiments were made with Restor,Rezoom, and Tecnis the Restor is the more able to offer best night vision.What do you think about that?

I would avoid the ReZoom IOL like the plague. In my opinion it should not be on the market. Published studies show the best night vision is with aspheric MONOFOCAL IOL and the "premium" IOLs will not match a monofocal IOL. Having said that the lowest night vision problem and dysphotopsia is with the Crystalens, then Technis aspheric the ReStor.  Don't even consider a ReZoom.

I suspect that the manufacturer of Restor paid for the study.  It was probably done several years ago, since the Rezoom IOL is rarely used today.

I'd suggest that you find a surgeon who is very experienced with multifocal IOLs.  I don't think that people with large pupils do well with Restor.
