We read with great interest the article by Moya et al. in the August 2015 issue.1 The literature on longterm outcomes and complications of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses is scarce and the authors effectively describe their 12-year experience with implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation. We reviewed 349 eyes of 216 patients, of which 155 (44.4%) were treated with spheric ICLs a...

We report the case of a 37-year-old man with a high myopic keratoconus eye that was treated with a posterior chamber toric implantable collamer lens (ICL) in Korea. The patient had a history of contact lens intolerance and did not want to have a corneal transplantation. His uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best spectacle corrected visual acuity were 0.02 and 0.4 in the left eye, respectivel...

This 30-year-old patient had a high myopia and with-the-rule astigmatism. Her best-corrected-visual-acuity was 20/20 with -6.75 -2.50 x 10. cornea an asymmetric bowtie, we were concerned laser vision correction. We then decided to implant toric phakic intraocular lens (Visian ICL® toric) and, 1 week after surgery, she J1 uncorrected. Note the central anterior vaulting of away from crystalline l...

BACKGROUND To compare the outcomes of a toric phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) and a spherical PIOL combined with astigmatic keratotomy (AK) for the correction of high myopic astigmatism. METHODS This study enrolled patients with high myopic astigmatism, including 30 eyes (22 patients) that received a toric PIOL implantation (TICL group), and 32 eyes (24 patients) that received combined AK and ...

PURPOSE To compare toric implantable collamer lens (T-ICL), femto-LASIK, and ReLEx SMILE for the treatment of low to moderate myopic astigmatism in terms of long-term visual and refractive outcomes and predictability of astigmatic correction. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 30 eyes from 30 patients between the age groups of 21 and 40 years, undergoing bilateral surgery with any of th...

purpose : to assess the visual and refractive outcomes after implantation of toric implantable collamer lens (t-icl) in compound myopic astigmatism methods : in this prospective study, 28 eyes with manifest refraction spherical equivalent (mrse) errors of -10.94±4.09 diopter (d) and mean cylindrical errors of -3.47±1.39 d underwent t-icl implantation. six months after surgery, best corrected an...

OBJECTIVE To compare preoperative and postoperative visual outcomes, determine patient's satisfaction, and evaluate visual symptoms after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation. METHODS One hundred and twelve patients with myopia between -2.75 and -19.50 diopter had ICL or Toric ICL (TICL) implantation. The implantations were carried out at the Cornea and Refractive Unit, Magrabi Eye Ho...

purpose: to evaluate the safety, efficacy, stability and predictability of posterior chamber collagen copolymer phakic intraocular lens (piol) implantation to correct myopia and myopic astigmatism in keratoconus-affected patients. methods: uncorrected (ucva) and best-corrected (bcva) distance visual acuity, refraction and complications were evaluated in 22 keratoconic eyes of 14 patients who un...

Purpose: The proper implantable collamer lens (ICL) size affects ICL stability. This study compared device efficacy using white-to-white diameter (WTW) measurements with Orbscan II and IOL Master 700.Methods: We retrospectively studied 90 eyes (45 patients) who underwent toric implantation from January 2019 to February 2020 were followed for 1 year. correlation between WTW anterior chamber dept...
