Methods: A cross-sectional case series study was conducted, with measurements taken three months post-implantation of the Elon IOL. A total of 56 implanted eyes from 28 patients (mean age: 64.5 \u00b1 9.5 years) were included in the statistical analysis. The variables analyzed to assess the effectiveness of the Elon IOL included high-contrast visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, the defocus curve, and visual symptoms. Results: Three months after implantation, the mean residual sphere was 0.00 \u00b1 0.33 D, while the mean residual cylinder was \u22120.25 \u00b1 0.41 D. Without correction, patients achieved monocular decimal visual acuity values of 0.94 \u00b1 0.26 for distance, 0.79 \u00b1 0.17 for intermediate, and 0.58 \u00b1 0.15 for near vision. The mean uncorrected contrast sensitivity was 1.61 \u00b1 0.15 log. The defocus curve showed visual acuity exceeding 0.80 decimal (0.10 logMAR) over a 2.00 D range and above 0.63 decimal (0.20 logMAR) over a 2.50 D range. The most frequently reported symptoms, with mild severity and bothersomeness, were glare, starbursts, halos, and focusing difficulties. Conclusions: Patients implanted with the Elon IOL achieved satisfactory visual quality at all distances, comparable to outcomes reported for other EDoF IOLs in the scientific literature.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14134460","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,24]],"date-time":"2025-06-24T04:37:21Z","timestamp":1750739841000},"page":"4460","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Visual Quality and Symptomatology Following Implantation of a Non-Diffractive Extended Depth-of-Focus Intraocular Lens"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3587-7892","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Cano-Ortiz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"},{"name":"Department of Health and Biomedical Sciences, Universidad Loyola Andaluc\u00eda, 41703 Sevilla, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5303-988X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00c1lvaro","family":"S\u00e1nchez-Ventosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9594-1601","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Timoteo","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Cruces","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8549-8431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marta","family":"Villalba-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-0474-7152","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francisco Javier","family":"Aguilar-Salazar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6456-3572","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan J.","family":"Prados-Carmona","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Reina Sofia University Hospital, 14004 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9077-3557","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carlos","family":"Carpena-Torres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocupharm Research Group, Department of Optometry and Vision, University Complutense of Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0054-1731","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gonzalo","family":"Carracedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocupharm Research Group, Department of Optometry and Vision, University Complutense of Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7612-2555","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alberto","family":"Villarrubia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anterior Segment, Cornea and Refractive Surgery, Hospital Arruzafa, 14012 Cordoba, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Schnider, C., Yuen, L., Rampat, R., Zhu, D., Dhallu, S., Trinh, T., Gurnani, B., Abdelmaksoud, A., Bhogal-Bhamra, G., and Wolffsohn, J.S.
