At six months, average visual outcomes did not differ between selected keratoconus eyes and controls. The sample was small, however, and repeat surgery occurred in both groups.
doi: 10.1007/s10792-026-04147-yAfter ICL implantation, the biometer often misidentified the anterior chamber boundary. Even so, predicted refractive change remained within ±0.50 D for every formula.
doi: 10.1111/aos.70259In 30 eyes with high myopia, keratoconus or previous keratoplasty, endothelial cell loss reached 11.41% over five years.
doi: 10.32725/jab.2026.004Nine studies covering 1,187 eyes found similar visual and major safety outcomes, while toric ICL showed better rotational stability.
doi: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000002008In a retrospective series of 714 eyes, 98% were within ±0.50 D of target; cataract occurred in 0.42% and rotation over 5° in 2.52% of eyes.
doi: 10.4103/IJO.IJO_90_26In a retrospective series of 158 eyes, retreatment improved vision and refraction, but LASIK, PRK and ICL groups differed greatly in size and were selected by clinical indication.
doi: 10.1186/s12886-026-05003-4A retrospective series assessed 254 eyes after posterior chamber central-port ICL implantation: high myopia was corrected well on average, although residual refraction varied substantially.
doi: 10.24875/CIRU.24000591Over 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.
doi: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000001857A 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 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.
