PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess predictability, efficacy, safety and stability in patients who received a toric implantable collamer lens to correct moderate to high myopic astigmatism. METHODS Forty-three eyes of 23 patients underwent implantation of a toric implantable collamer lens (STAAR Surgical Inc) for astigmatism correction. Mean spherical refraction was -4. 98 ± 3.49 ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the medium-term results of phakic posterior chamber implantable collamer lens implantation to correct moderate and high hyperopia. METHODS In this retrospective study, patients were treated for hyperopia with the Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICH model V3; STAAR Surgical AG, Nidau, Switzerland). Examined parameters were manifest refraction spherical equivalent, uncorre...

Lens damage during phakic intraocular lens implantation is a major complication. A case of a patient who developed lens vacuoles during toric implantable collamer lens (ICL) removal from her right eye and insertion of a new non-toric ICL due to persistent rotation of the former is presented in this work. As this event is very uncommon when implanting phakic intraocular lenses, the performed sur...
