Iris-fixated toric phakic intraocular lens for myopic astigmatism
2011
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy, predictability, safety, stability, and complications of the Artiflex toric iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) for myopic astigmatism. Setting Private practice surgery centers, Valencia and Terrassa, Spain. Design Cohort study. Methods At 12 months, refraction, uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, complications, pIOL misalignment, and endothelial cell count (ECC) were evaluated. Indices of success and misalignment were calculated using vector analysis. Results The study enrolled 42 eyes in 25 patients aged 21 to 39 years. The mean spherical equivalent decreased from −8.85 diopters (D) ± 2.71 (SD) to −0.37 ± 0.46 D, with …
Refractive lens exchange with the Acri. Twin asymmetric diffractive bifocal intraocular lens system
2009
PURPOSE To evaluate efficacy, safety, and predictability after refractive lens exchange (RLE) in patients who had implantation of asymmetric Acri.Twin bifocal diffractive intraocular lenses. METHODS The study comprised 130 eyes of 65 consecutive patients after RLE who had bilateral implantation of the Acri.Twin system. Eyes were divided into myopic and hyperopic groups. Binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity, best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCVA), uncorrected distance near visual acuity, and best distance-corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA) were recorded preoperatively and 6 months after surgery. RESULTS Efficacy indexes were 0.99 for myopic and 0.93 for hyperopic patients at …
Optical quality in eyes with aspheric intraocular lenses and in younger and older adult phakic eyes: comparative study.
2009
To compare ocular higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in eyes with aspheric intraocular lenses (IOL) and in phakic eyes.Department of Ophthalmology, Military Health Service Institute, Warsaw, Poland.Higher-order aberrations with a 5.0 mm pupil and best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) were analyzed in a young phakic group (age 20 to 40 years), older phakic group (age 40 to 60 years), and a pseudophakic group (age 62 to 84 years; SN60WF aspheric IOL).The mean coma was 0.13 microm+/-0.07 (SD) in the younger phakic group, 0.18+/-0.08 microm in the older phakic group, and 0.16+/-0.08 microm in the pseudophakic group; the difference between the 2 phakic groups was statistically significant …
Comparison of visual and refractive results of Toric Implantable Collamer Lens with bioptics for myopic astigmatism.
2013
PURPOSE: To compare visual and refractive results of Toric Implantable Collamer Lens (TICL) and bioptics (ICL plus excimer corneal surgery) to treat myopic astigmatism. METHODS: Eighty-one eyes underwent TICL implantation and 83 eyes were treated with bioptics (corneal ablation was performed between 1.5 and 6 months after ICL implantation). Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), refraction, adverse events, safety, and efficacy were evaluated 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS: At 12 months postoperatively, the mean spherical equivalent was -0.15 ± 0.36 diopters (D) in the TICL group and -0.08 ± 0.26 D in the bioptics group (p = 0.099). Sixty-six …
Sutureless ciliary sulcus supported intraocular lens with transiridal anchoring haptics.
2003
We report a technique for implanting intraocular lenses (IOLs) in the ciliary sulcus in eyes without capsule support. The IOL design allows it to be implanted without fixation sutures. The lens was implanted in 3 aphakic eyes without capsule support.
Retinal Imaging through Phakic Iris-Claw IOL.
2014
AbstractBackground: Phakic anterior chamber iris-fixated IOL (PIOL) are established for the correction of high myopia. These patients require attention to macular pathologies. This study was to evaluate the quality of imaging through the PIOLs. Methods: 54 eyes of 31 myopic and hyperopic patients with Verisyse®, Verisyse toric®, and Veriflex® phakic iris-fixated IOL were included. Mean preoperative refraction was −11.0 D and +5.7 D, respectively; mean follow-up time was 7.4 years (5–11 years). A matched control group was formed without PIOL implantation. OCT scans were performed and evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. Results: In 52 eyes of 31 patients (96%), a 3D-OCT image and fund…
Clinical outcomes after implantation of a posterior chamber collagen copolymer phakic intraocular lens with a central hole for myopic correction.
2013
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy, predictability, safety, and stability of a new-model posterior chamber Implantable Collamer Lens phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) (V4c Visian) to correct myopia. Setting Private practice, Oviedo, Spain. Design Case series. Methods This study enrolled patients who had implantation of a new pIOL design with a central hole for more natural aqueous flow, eliminating the need for neodymium:YAG iridotomy or peripheral iridectomy. The uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, refractive error, intraocular pressure (IOP), endothelial cell count, central vault, and adverse events were evaluated 6 months postoperatively. Results The study enroll…
Optical and Visual Quality of the Visian Implantable Collamer Lens Using an Adaptive-Optics Visual Simulator
2013
To evaluate visual and optical quality of the implantable collamer lens for different powers and sizes of incision surgery.Prospective study in humans.An adaptive optics visual simulator was used to measure 3 powers of implantable collamer lenses and simulate the implantable collamer lens wavefront aberration's pattern for small- and large-incision surgery. Visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity were measured in 11 observers for 3- and 5-mm pupils. Modulation transfer function, point spread function, and Strehl ratio were calculated.At 3 mm pupil, no statistically significant differences were found between both incision sizes for any implantable collamer lens power, except for -15 diop…
Influence of optic quality on contrast sensitivity and visual acuity in eyes with a rigid or flexible phakic intraocular lens
2009
Purpose To determine whether the difference in optic quality between 2 types of phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) affects visual quality. Setting Fundacion Oftalmologica del Mediterraneo, Valencia, Spain. Methods Before implantation of a pIOL for myopia, all eyes had an examination including corrected (CDVA) and uncorrected (UDVA) distance visual acuity testing, corneal endothelial cell count (ECC), and intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement. The postoperative outcomes, determined at least 1 year after surgery, were CDVA; UDVA; contrast sensitivity function under photopic, mesopic, and mesopic with glare conditions; ECC; IOP; keratometry (Scheimpflug photography); and total ocular aberratio…
Fixed Mydriatic Pupil Associated with an Intraocular Pressure Rise as a Complication of the Implant of a Phakic Refractive Lens (PRL)
2013
We describe a case report of a patient that was implanted with a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (Phakic Refractive Lens, PRL) for the correction of moderate myopia and who developed postoperatively a fixed mydriasis compatible with an Urrets-Zavalia Syndrome (UZS). Specifically, a sudden acute increase of IOP in the left eye was observed in the immediate postoperative period. After IOP stabilization, the refractive result was good, but a fixed and mydriatic pupil appeared. This condition led the patient to experience visual discomfort, halos, and glare associated with high levels of higher-order aberrations in spite of the good visual result. A tinted-contact lens was fitted in o…
