Posterior chamber collamer phakic intraocular lens implantation: Comparison of efficacy and safety for low and moderate-to-high myopia

摘要

Purpose: To compare visual, refractive and safety outcomes of central-hole posterior chamber collamer phakic intraocular lens implantation for low and moderate-to-high myopia. Subjects/methods: This retrospective cohort study included 338 eyes submitted to posterior chamber collamer phakic intraocular lens implantation that completed a 12-month postoperative follow-up. Two groups were defined depending on preoperative spherical equivalent: group 1 comprised 106 eyes with manifest spherical equivalent of ?6.00?D or less; group 2 comprised 232 eyes with manifest spherical equivalent higher than ?6.00?D. Effectiveness, predictability, stability and safety outcomes were compared preoperatively and at 1, 6 and 12?months postoperatively. Results: At 1-year postoperative, uncorrected and corrected visual acuities were 0.02?±?0.17 and ?0.01?±?0.12 logMAR (group 1) and 0.04?±?0.20 and 0.01?±?0.16 logMAR (group 2), with an efficacy index of 1.05?±?0.17 and 1.17?±?0.28. Respectively, 92 (86.8) and 199 (85.8) eyes were within ±0.50?D of targeted refraction, and postoperative manifest refraction changes were ?0.07?±?0.25?D and ?0.07?±?0.35?D. Intraocular pressure did not change significantly. The mean rate of endothelial cell loss was 1.12 and 1.10, respectively. One case of anterior subcapsular cataract (group 2) was observed. ICL exchange occurred in one case (group 1) and three cases (group 2). No vision-threatening complications were reported. Conclusion: The posterior chamber collamer phakic intraocular lens implantation demonstrated high visual and refractive efficacy with an excellent safety profile for the correction of both low and moderate-to-high myopia, revealing equivalent 1-year outcomes regardless of the degree of preoperative myopia.
