PURPOSE: To compare flange depth for a modified scleral pocket (SP) vs no scleral pocket (NSP) technique (Yamane technique) for intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation. SETTING: Instituto de Oftalmología Santa Fe, Santa Fe, Argentina. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, single-surgeon, observational study. METHODS: Eyes with aphakia and no capsular support were included. They were divided into 2 groups: one was programmed for a double-needle flanged intrascleral IOL fixation as originally described by Shin Yamane with NSP and the second group had a modified SP technique...

PURPOSE: To compare 3 capsulotomy centration methods. SETTING: Private clinic, Zlin, Czech Republic. DESIGN: Prospective, consecutive case series. METHODS: 180 eyes undergoing cataract surgery had anterior capsule staining with microfiltered 0.4% trypan blue solution before selective laser capsulotomy. The first 60 eyes (Group 1) had mydriatic dilated pupil centered capsulotomies. The next 60 eyes (Group 2) were centered on the trypan blue central landmark (TCL)...

PURPOSE: To develop an accurate deep learning model to predict postoperative vault of phakic implantable collamer lenses (ICLs). SETTING: Parkhurst NuVision LASIK Eye Surgery, San Antonio, Texas. DESIGN: Retrospective machine learning study. METHODS: 437 eyes of 221 consecutive patients who underwent ICL implantation were included. A neural network was trained on preoperative very high-frequency digital ultrasound images, patient demographics, and postoperative vault...

INTRODUCTION: Myopia is causing a major public health concern, with its prevalence increasing globally. This study aimed to discuss posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) research publication trends and hotspots over the past 20 years. METHODS: Bibliometric analysis was performed using the Web Science Core Collection to investigate posterior-chamber pIOL research publication trends. The extracted records were analyzed, and a knowledge map was built using VOSviewer v...

AIM: To evaluate the objective visual outcomes following implantation of extended depth of focus intraocular lens (EDOF IOL) in individuals with varying axial lengths (AL) and targeted refraction. METHODS: This retrospective study comprised age-matched eyes that underwent implantation of the EDOF IOL. Eyes were categorized based on AL into groups: control group with AL < 26 mm; high myopia group with AL ≥ 26 mm. Each group was then subdivided based on postoperative spherical equivalent (SE)...

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical results of a new trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) with sinusoidal design by comparing with a traditional trifocal IOL. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 79 patients undergoing uneventful microincisional cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of one of two types of trifocal IOLs, the Acriva Trinova IOL (VSY) or Acrysof IQ PanOptix IOL (Alcon), were enrolled in this prospective study. Visual and refractive outcomes, contrast sensitivity (CS), and defocus curve were assessed at 3 months after surgery...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked disorder due to a dystrophin mutation and is the leading cause of muscular dystrophy. DMD presents with characteristic systemic effects, including severe muscular atrophy, cardiomyopathy, and ocular manifestations. Performing corneal refractive surgeries in patients with DMD raises concerns regarding patient positioning, risk of cataracts, and other comorbid conditions. Published reports of photorefractive keratectomy, laser-assisted in situ keratomileuses, and small incision lenticule extraction are lacking in this population...

AIM: To analysis of research hotspots and trends on the application of premium intraocular lens (PIOLs) in the past 2 decades. METHODS: The literature search was performed on the Web of Science and included PIOLs studies published between January 2000 and December 2022. The retrieved literature was collated and analyzed by R-tool's Bibliometrix package, CitNetExplorer, CiteSpace and other software. RESULTS: A total of 1801 articles about PIOLs were obtained, most of which were published in Spain and the United States...

PURPOSE: To present a reproducible method to calculate the toricity needed at the intraocular lens (IOL) plane with toric phakic IOLs (ICL, Staar Surgical) and compare its results with those obtained with the online calculator provided by the manufacturer. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. SETTING: Private practice, Buenos Aires, Argentina. METHODS: The formula originally described by Holladay to calculate the IOL power in phakic eyes was used to calculate the required spherical power along the less refractive meridian and along the more refractive meridian...

A retrospective cohort study was conducted to observe the correction effect of Toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in cataract eyes with specific types of irregular corneal astigmatism. Thirty-four eyes with either the "asymmetric bow-tie" pattern (Type I) or the "angled bow-tie" pattern (Type II) were included. Corneal topography was assessed using Pentacam HR, and changes in preoperative corneal astigmatism, visual acuity, manifest refraction, and objective visual quality were measured and compared...

PURPOSE: To study the visual results and tolerance of a Zeiss CT Lucia 601P intraocular lens (IOL) implanted in the sulcus after complicated cataract surgery or during IOL exchange for clouded IOL. METHODS: In total, 64 patients who underwent sulcus implantation were recalled to the hospital to undergo subjective and objective refraction, best corrected visual acuity measurement, tonometry, optical coherence tomography, laser flare photometry, biometry, and wavefront aberrometry...

PURPOSE: Evaluate the impact of high vs low intraoperative IOP during phacoemulsification on anterior and posterior physiology. SETTING: Private practice in Des Moines, Iowa. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, paired-eye clinical trial of patients anticipating bilateral cataract surgery. METHODS: Twenty-seven subjects randomized at the time of their first cataract surgery to either low intraocular pressure (IOP) or high IOP group...

PURPOSE: Mydriatic pupil repair by cerclage has been thought to be a permanent fix for glare, visual function and cosmesis. Iris repair can develop late cheese-wiring of cerclage sutures with resultant loss of benefits. We describe a case series of cerclage failures due to cheese-wiring. SETTING: Cincinnati Eye Institute, Cincinnati, Ohio. DESIGN: Retrospective single-surgeon case series. METHODS: A retrospective chart review sought patients that underwent iris cerclage at the Cincinnati Eye Institute who later developed suture cheese-wiring...

PURPOSE: To compare maximum tensile strength between commonly used 3-piece intraocular lens (IOL) for flanged intrascleral haptic fixation (FISHF). SETTING: Willis-Knight Eye Institute. DESIGN: Laboratory investigation. METHODS: Haptic tensile strength was compared with MA60AC, CT Lucia 602, AR40E, and the light-adjustable lens (LAL). Haptic strength with a 24D (diopter) IOL was compared across all lenses, as well as a range of 10-30D with the MA60AC...
