Outcomes of the EVO ICL Using a Customized Non-horizontal or Horizontal Implanting Orientation Based on UBM Measurement: A Pilot Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

To evaluate the short-term safety and efficacy of the EVO implantable collamer lens (ICL) using a customized implanting orientation design based on ultrasound biomicroscope (UBM) measurement.

Methods

The prospective case series included 310 eyes of 158 patients treated with ICL. To achieve an optimal vault, an ICL of specific size was chosen and implanted in a customized orientation according to assessment of sulcus-to-sulcus (STS) diameters, distance between STS plane and crystalline lens (STSL), the morphology of ciliary sulcus (MCS), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and white-to-white (WTW). With the new design, there were 138 eyes with a non-horizontal orientation and 172 eyes with a horizontal orientation of the ICL. Refractive and ICL vault statuses were foll
