One study, its results and limitations.
A meta-analysis of 214 studies and 45,027 eyes estimated explantation, displacement and uncommon complications after phakic IOL surgery. Rates were low, but short follow-up may conceal late events.
doi: 10.1016/j.ajo.2026.01.028A systematic review of 19 reports and 1,564 eyes assessed residual cylinder, rotation and reoperation after at least one year. Correction generally persisted to two years, but longer evidence was sparse.
doi: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000001917A prospective study of 28 patients evaluated bilateral Liberty 677MTY implantation. Most participants reported spectacle independence at one year, but the study had no control group.
doi: 10.1186/s12886-026-05145-5In 92 patients, three EDOF approaches improved uncorrected intermediate and near vision compared with a monofocal lens, while the profile of photic phenomena differed between designs.
doi: 10.1016/j.jfo.2026.104823A randomized study of 70 cataract patients compared PanOptix with Vivity. Stereopsis favored the EDOF group at one month, while contrast sensitivity did not differ significantly between groups.
doi: 10.4103/IJO.IJO_2015_25In 67 patients, an EDOF lens in the dominant eye and PanOptix in the nondominant eye provided good binocular vision across distances, but overall satisfaction fell to 38.5% by 12 months.
doi: 10.3341/kjo.2026.0105A meta-analysis of 28 studies found lower mean absolute error with Hill-RBF 3.0 than with Haigis, Holladay 1 and SRK/T. Performance was more often comparable against newer formulas.
doi: 10.1016/j.jcjo.2026.01.005A network meta-analysis of 15 studies and 1,178 eyes shorter than 22 mm placed Kane, Haigis and Olsen Standalone among the most accurate formulas. A statistically definitive single winner has not emerged.
doi: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000001793A network meta-analysis of 50 studies and 5,141 eyes compared aberrations after laser procedures and phakic ICL implantation. ICL ranked best, but optical metrics are not equivalent to overall clinical effectiveness.
doi: 10.1007/s00417-026-07386-yA meta-analysis found the strongest associations between late IOL dislocation and zonular weakness, trauma, uveitis and pseudoexfoliation. A factor's frequency among cases does not necessarily establish independent risk.
