PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To review all phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) available in the United States for the correction of myopia or myopic astigmatism and offer a clinical approach to their proper use, postoperative follow-up, and analysis of visual and adverse outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS: In March 2022, the FDA approved the EVO/EVO+ Visian ICL for widespread use, adding this lens to the two others available (Verisyse, Visian ICL). Cataract formation, endothelial cell loss (ECL) and surgical reintervention remain the most common adverse events...

BACKGROUND: The central hole of the Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL V4c) provides a reference to observe its tilt or decentration.

METHODS: A total of 135 eyes from 69 patients who underwent ICL V4c implantation were included in this study. Evaluation of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and aberrations were performed 6-months postoperatively...

Prior to and a minimum of one year (mean 14.9 months) after EVO Visian ICL implantation, biometric variables and IOL calculation results were compared...

Objective: Analysis of visual acuity parameters in patients with moderate to high myopia and myopic astigmatism 1 year after treatment with phakic intraocular lenses. Material and methods: This was a retrospective study on 35 patients (52 eyes) with moderate to high myopia who were implanted with the Visian V4c phakic implantable Collamer lens (Staar Surgical, Nidau, Switzerland). Examined parameters were: uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and best corrected visual acuity (CDVA), manifest and cycloplegic refraction, intraocular pressure, and endothelial cell count...

PURPOSE: Report the outcomes of the implantable collamer lens (ICL) in myopic astigmatism using very high-frequency (VHF) digital ultrasound sizing. METHODS: Analysis of 42 consecutive ICL procedures using EVO and EVO+ (Visian V4c) lenses (STAAR Surgical) was done. ICL size was chosen using the ultrasound-based Kojima Formula with Insight 100 VHF digital ultrasound (VHFDU). Standard visual outcomes analysis was performed using 3-month data, also including contrast sensitivity, refractive and corneal vector analysis, and ECC...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to document clinical outcomes of 2 posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses with a central hole, the implantable contact lens (IPCL V2.0) and the Visian implantable collamer lens V4c (ICL), in myopic and myopic-astigmatic patients. METHODS: Retrospective study comprising 111 IPCL (60 toric) and 106 ICL implantations (59 toric) with a follow-up of 3 months to 2 years. Primary outcome was uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) improvement; secondary outcomes were changes in corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and complications...

PURPOSE: To evaluate long-term efficacy, safety, predictability, and stability of a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (Visian implantable collamer lens [ICL]) in eyes with ≥10 years of follow-up. SETTING: Instituto de Microcirugía Ocular, Barcelona, Spain. DESIGN: Retrospective study. METHODS: Eyes undergoing ICL implantation from 2008 to 2011 with ≥10 years of follow-up were included. Variables analyzed were preoperative, 1-month, 1-year, 5-year, and last follow-up uncorrected distance (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), manifest refraction, spherical equivalent (SE), endothelial cell count (ECC), and intraocular pressure (IOP)...

PURPOSE: To evaluate residual astigmatism following correction with toric implantable collamer lens (TICL) (group I) over a period of 4 years and compare with the change of astigmatism in spectacle wearers (group II). METHODS: Groups I (86 cases implanted with TICL [EVO + Visian ICL, Staar Surgical, Nidau, Switzeland], preop refractive error [sphere and cylinder] - 22.25 DS to - 1.00 DS and - 5.50 DC to - 1...

BACKGROUND: To compare the arithmetic mean (M-SIA) and the summated vector mean of surgically induced astigmatism (SVM-SIA) according to the incision site after phakic intraocular lens (Visian implantable collamer lens (ICL), STAAR Surgical) implantation. METHODS: This study comprised 121 eyes of 121 consecutive patients undergoing ICL surgery through a 3.0-mm temporal or superior clear corneal incision. The magnitude and the axis of corneal astigmatism preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively were measured using an automated keratometer...

BACKGROUND: Myopic anisometropic amblyopia in pediatrics is one of the most challenging clinical situations that can face an ophthalmologist. Conventional correction modalities for myopic anisometropia, using spectacles, contact lenses, and/or occlusion therapy, may not be suitable for some pediatric patients or for some ocular conditions. This may lead to the development of anisometropic amblyopia. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the visual and the refractive efficacy, safety, and stability of Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lenses (PC-pIOLs) for correcting myopic anisometropic amblyopia in a pediatric cohort...

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to measure the implantable collamer lens (ICL) vault changes with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) after the implantation of the Visian posterior chamber phakic ICL with a central hole (V4c) in relation to the pupil size. METHODS: This retrospective observational pilot study included 32 eyes of 16 patients, who underwent V4c ICL implantation. ICL vault was measured with AS-OCT in undilated and fully dilate state of the pupil...
