In 146 eyes, measured corneal thinning differed from the surgical plan. The gap was associated with baseline corneal geometry and selected aberrations, but an effect on perceived visual quality was not established.
After ICL implantation, the biometer often misidentified the anterior chamber boundary. Even so, predicted refractive change remained within ±0.50 D for every formula.
A meta-analysis of nine nonrandomized comparisons found no clear overall visual advantage for the newer platform, but cylinder correction was more accurate.
A retrospective series assessed 254 eyes after posterior chamber central-port ICL implantation: high myopia was corrected well on average, although residual refraction varied substantially.
Over 12 years at a high-volume center, 110 of 22,739 eyes underwent ICL exchange. Downsizing reliably reduced high vault, while the gain from upsizing diminished with age.
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.
A systematic review of 38 studies compared AS-OCT- and UBM-based nomograms for ICL sizing and vault prediction. No approach performed consistently better across populations, devices and clinical settings.
