Determining the Potential Role of Crystalline Lens Rise in Vaulting in Posterior Chamber Phakic Collamer Lens Surgery for Correction of Myopia.

Purpose: To assess the effect of crystalline lens rise (CLR) on postoperative vault in eyes implanted with a phakic Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) (STAAR Surgical Company, Monrovia, CA) with a central port for myopic correction.

Methods: Non-invasive Fourier-domain swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography was used for dynamic assessment of the study eyes under changing light conditions. Phakic intraocular lens (IOL) vault, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and CLR were recorded after surgery, and intra-eye differences were analyzed under scotopic and photopic ambient light conditions.

Intraocular pressure during the early postoperative period after 100 consecutive implantations of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses with a central hole.

Purpose: To study changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) during the early postoperative period in eyes having implantation of a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) (Visian Implantable Collamer Lens V4c).

Setting: Clínica Baviera, Instituto Oftalmológico Europeo, Madrid, Spain.

Design: Case series.
