Mersilene (polyester fiber) is stronger and less elastic than nylon suture material. In contrast to nylon, Mersilene does not appear to be susceptible to biodegradation in the long term. After a follow-up period of 6 months, the regression of surgically induced astigmatism following extracapsular cataract extraction and lens implantation with a conventional 150 degree corneoscleral incision was in the same range with nylon monofilament 10-0 and Mersilene 10-0. With nylon single sutures (14 patients) there was a reduction from 3.5 and with Mersilene (12 patients) from 3.9 to 0.9 diopters.
梅氏尼龙线（聚酯纤维）比尼龙缝合材料更坚固且弹性更小。与尼龙不同，梅氏尼龙线似乎不会长期受到生物降解的影响。在6个月的随访期后，采用传统150度角巩膜切口进行白内障囊外摘除和晶状体植入术后，手术引起的散光的消退情况在使用10-0尼龙单丝和10-0梅氏尼龙线时处于相同范围。使用尼龙单缝线（14例患者）时，散光度数从3.5降低，使用梅氏尼龙线（12例患者）时，散光度数从3.9降低至0.9屈光度。
