OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of patients undergoing sequential sessions of RV and report its benefit in improving visual acuity (VA). METHODS: Cross sectional study with a sample of 10 patients who underwent sequential sessions of the RV. Patients were treated at a rate of 2-3 sessions per week for a period of 2 to 3 months and was completed after 20 to 40 sessions. The main inclusion criteria were post cataract surgery (without complications) and multifocal IOL until +3.00 D, astigmatism <-1.00 D, amblyopia, glaucoma, post corneal transplant, Axenfeld Rieger syndrome, congenital cataract and post lasik. RESULTS: The sample of ten patients comprised 30% female, 70% male with an average of 29 years and 38.6 sessions per patient. There was statistical significance in relation to pre and post AV sequential RV sessions (p = 0.0135) and improved contrast sensitivity. CONCLUSION: An improvement of VA and contrast sensitivity in patients after the RV sessions was observed.
