Artisan Iris-supported Phakic IOL Implantation in Patients With Keratoconus: A Review of Sixteen Eyes

چکیده
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 14.2 7.8 months. Preoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was counting fi ngers in all patients. Mean fi nal logMAR (Snellen equivalent) UDVA and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) were 0.15(20/28) 0.13 and 0.11(20/26) 0.10, respectively. The improvements in UDVA and CDVA were statistically signifi cant (P .0001 and P .002, respectively). All patients achieved a fi nal UDVA of 20/40 or better, and 84.6% had a fi nal CDVA of 20/32 or better. No postoperative complications occured except for two cases of sterile uveitis.

Artisan phakic intraocular lens in patients with keratoconus.
PURPOSE To assess the safety, efficacy, predictability, and refractive outcome of implanting Ophtec Artisan phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) in eyes with keratoconus. METHODS In this retrospective study, 18 eyes of 11 patients diagnosed with keratoconus who underwent toric or myopic pIOL implantation were followed for 1 year postoperatively. Mean patient age was 41+/-10.97 years (range: 23 t...
متن کاملIntermittent myopic shift of 4.0 diopters after implantation of an Artisan iris-supported phakic intraocular lens.
A 45-year-old man with bilateral high myopia and myopic astigmatism had uneventful implantation of a -10.5 diopters (D) Artisan iris-fixated anterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) (Ophtec) in both eyes. In the first days after surgery, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) was 20/16 in the right eye and 20/16 in the left; the position of the PIOL was stable. Ten days after surgery, the left...
متن کاملRefractive lens exchange versus iris-claw Artisan phakic intraocular lens for hyperopia.
PURPOSE To study a paired-match comparison between refractive lens exchange with pseudophakic IOL implant (RLE) and Artisan phakic IOL for high hyperopia. METHODS Nineteen eyes (12 patients, 20 to 41 years old) with an Artisan phakic IOL (Model 203: 1.00-D increment) for hyperopia from +2.75 to +9.25 D were matched to 19 eyes (15 patients, 26 to 46 yr) with hyperopia from +2.75 to +7.50 D, wh...
متن کاملComparison of Preoperative and Postoperative Ocular Biometry in Eyes with Phakic Intraocular Lens Implantations
PURPOSE To compare preoperative and postoperative ocular biometry in patients with iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOLs): Artisan and Artiflex. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 40 eyes with Artisan and 36 eyes with Artiflex pIOL implants. Anterior chamber depth (ACD) and axial length (AL) were measured by applanation ultrasonography (A-scan) and partial coherence interferometr...
متن کاملArtisan iris-fixated toric phakic and aphakic intraocular lens implantation for the correction of astigmatic refractive error after radial keratotomy.
We report 2 patients who had radial keratotomy (RK) to correct myopia. The first patient developed a postoperative hyperopic shift and cataract. Nine years post RK, she had intracapsular cataract extraction and implantation of an Artisan aphakic intraocular lens (IOL). Twenty years post RK, hyperopia and astigmatism progressed to +7.0 -5.75 x 100 with a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20...
