Comparison of Toric Implantable Collamer Lens and Toric Artiflex Phakic IOLs in Terms of Visual Outcome: a Paired Contralateral Eye Study.

Purpose: This study sought to compare the postoperative visual outcomes of toric implantable collamer lens (T-ICL) with toric Artiflex (T-Artiflex) lenses.

Design: Alternating treatment, contralateral eye matched clinical study.

Methods: This study compared 82 eyes of 41 patients with T-ICL lenses in one eye and toric Artiflex implantation in the contralateral eye to correct myopic astigmatism.

Comparison of densitometric profile after deep lamellar keratoplasty with two different techniques for treatment of keratoconus.

Purpose: To compare densitometric outcome of two techniques of deep lamellar keratoplasty using Pentacam HR corneal densitometry software.

Methods: Postoperative outcomes of 31 patients with big bubble (BB) and 28 patients with Melles (M) surgery for the treatment of keratoconus were evaluated. Data were gathered at least 3 months after the removal of all sutures including demographic data, uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA), refraction and endothelial cell count.
