Multiple regression analysis in nomogram development for myopic wavefront laser in situ keratomileusis: Improving astigmatic outcomes.

Purpose: To describe and evaluate a new multiple regression-derived nomogram for myopic wavefront laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).

Setting: Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, United Kingdom.

Design: Prospective comparative case series.

Quality of life in high myopia before and after implantable Collamer lens implantation.

Purpose: To examine changes in vision-related quality of life after implantable Collamer lens (ICL) implantation for the correction of myopia.

Design: Prospective, interventional, consecutive case series.

Participants: We included 34 consecutive patients (68% female; mean age, 37 years [range, 23-49]) with preoperative myopia (mean ± standard deviation [SD] refraction spherical equivalent, -11.

Quality of life in high myopia: implantable Collamer lens implantation versus contact lens wear.

Purpose: To compare vision-related quality of life in implantable Collamer lens (ICL) recipients and successful contact lens (CL) wearers not seeking refractive surgery.

Design: A comparative cross-sectional study of consecutive cases.

Participants: Forty-one consecutive cases of bilateral ICL implantation in Moorfields Eye Hospital, London, and a control group of 41 CL wearers with a similar starting level of myopia attending consecutively at 1 of 2 community optometric practices in the London area.
