A Nationwide Multicenter Study on 1-Year Outcomes of Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens Implantation for Low Myopia.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To assess the nationwide multicenter outcomes of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation with a central hole (EVO-ICL, STAAR Surgical) for patients with low myopia.

Methods

This multicenter study comprised 172 eyes of 111 consecutive patients undergoing hole ICL implantation to correct low myopia and myopic astigmatism [manifest spherical equivalent (MSE);-3 diopters (D) or less] at seven nationwide major surgical facilities. We retrospectively determined safety, efficacy, predictability, stability, and adverse events at 1 week, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, and at the final visit.

Results

The mean follow-up period was 1.4 ± 1.0 years. Uncorrected and corrected visual acuities at 1 year postoperatively were -0.17 ± 0.12 and -0.24 ± 0.0
