ABSTRACT

Purpose: To compare clinical outcomes following implantation of two types of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses: Visian™ Implantable Collamer Lens with Centraflow (ICL, V4C Staar Surgical, Nidau, Switzerland) and Implantable Phakic Contact Lens (IPCL, V1, Caregroup Sight Solution, India) for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism. Methods: This retrospective case series included eyes which underwent phakic intraocular lens implantation with a minimum follow-up period of 1 year. Visual outcomes including safety, efficacy, refractive predictability, and stability were compared at 1 week and at 1, 6, and 12 months' postoperative visit. Complications and adverse events were analyzed. Results: The study included 119 and 203 eyes in the IPCL and ICL groups, respectively. At 1-year postoperative visit, median corrected distance visual acuity was 0.10 (interquartile range [IQR] 0,0.10) and 0 (IQR 0,0) in the IPCL and ICL cohorts, respectively (P = 0.066). An uncorrected visual acuity of 20/32 or better was achieved in 86.5% and 88.67% of the eyes, respectively (P = 0.574). Ninety and 94% of the eyes achieved a postoperative manifest spherical equivalent within ± 0.5D (P = 0.169, ?2 test). Three eyes (2.52%) in the IPCL group versus one eye (0.49%) in the ICL group developed visually significant cataract requiring surgical intervention (P = 0.113). No vision-threatening complications were noted in either cohort. The mean follow-up period was 94.69 ± 32.45 and 102.67 ± 61.82 weeks, respectively. Conclusion: Both groups demonstrated similar efficacy and safety profile. The IPCL is an effective and economically viable option for the correction of myopia.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and higher order aberrations (HOAs) following wavefront optimized (WFO) laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) versus topography-guided customized ablation (TCAT) LASIK for myopia and myopic astigmatism. Methods: Patients who underwent femtosecond-assisted LASIK for myopic correction between August 2016 and October 2017 were included in this interventional prospective case series. The following parameters were evaluated preoperatively and at 3 months' postoperative visit: uncorrected distance vision acuity (UDVA) and corrected distance vision acuity (CDVA), manifest refraction, and HOAs. Results: Two hundred eyes of 100 patients were included in the study. At 3 months' postoperative visit, 92% and 90% eyes in the TCAT and WFO groups, respectively, demonstrated a UDVA of 20/20 or better (P = 0.90). A residual manifest spherical equivalent within 0.5 D was achieved in 100% and 95% of the eyes in the TCAT and WFO groups, respectively (P = 0.10). No significant difference was observed in the HOAs induced in both the groups, with slightly lower induction of trefoil and horizontal coma in the TCAT group. Conclusion: Both groups demonstrated similar refractive efficacy and predictability, with greater gain of CDVA following TCAT ablation. HOAs induced were not significantly different between the two groups. Further studies are needed to validate the superiority of one procedure over the other.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the objective and subjective visual outcomes of patients bilaterally implanted with the extended range of vision intraocular lens (EROV IOL), the Tecnis Symfony. Methods: This was a prospective interventional case series conducted at a tertiary eye care hospital in South India. The study included patients with bilateral implantation of EROV IOLs. The uncorrected and corrected visual acuity for distance, intermediate, and near vision was recorded at 6 weeks and 6 months' postoperative visit. A subjective questionnaire was administered to assess spectacle independence, photic phenomenon, and overall satisfaction. All data were recorded using Microsoft Excel worksheet. The analyses were performed using SPSS for windows software. Results: Our study included fifty patients with bilateral implantation of EROV IOLs. The mean age was 59.84 ± 11.68 years. The mean uncorrected binocular distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity (in standard decimal equivalent) was 0.89,0.99 and 0.99 respectively, at 6 months' postoperative visit. Ninety-six percent of the patients did not require spectacles for distance and 98% of the patients were free from spectacles for intermediate and near vision. 94% of our patients perceived no or minimal photic phenomena such as glare and halos. The mean subjective patient satisfaction score (out of 10) for distance, intermediate, and near was 9, 10, and 9, respectively. Conclusion: The EROV IOLs demonstrated high levels of spectacle independence for distance, intermediate, and near vision. The incidence of photic phenomena observed was minimal with a high level of patient satisfaction.
