Introduction: This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of simultaneous implantable collamer lens (ICL) removal and phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in a multicenter study.
Methods: We retrospectively investigated 83 eyes of 72 patients requiring ICL extraction and cataract surgery at five institutions. Preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively, we determined visual acuity (logMAR), spherical equivalent refraction, and endothelial cell density (ECD), in addition to the preoperative backgrounds and the postoperative complications.
: We previously reported a case of a patient with bilateral congenital cataract identified in the Ogasawara village, Bonin Islands, Japan, on a visit by an ophthalmologist and describe its course over 17 years from initial surgery. Here, we report on a secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation that was subsequently performed at 22 years and 5 months of age. : After cataract surgery at 7 months, the aphakic patient began amblyopia treatment using extended-wear soft contact lenses (SCLs).

Methods: This case series enrolled 31 eyes of 21 consecutive patients undergoing EVO-ICL implantation to correct residual refractive errors after LASIK at 7 nationwide major surgical sites. We investigated safety, efficacy, predictability, stability, and adverse events at 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively, and at the final visit.
To assess the multicenter clinical outcomes of the implantation of hole implantable collamer lens (Hole ICL, ICL KS-AquaPORTTM; STAAR Surgical, Nidau, Switzerland) in patients of 45 years or more. We retrospectively assessed the surgery's safety, efficacy, predictability, stability, and adverse events before surgery and after the surgery at 1 week; 1, 3, and 6 months; and 1 year, followed by once every year for approximately 2.2 years.

Methods: The estimated corneal power before LASIK (Kpre) in the double-K method was 43.86 D according to the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery calculator, and the K readings of the IOL master were used as the K values after LASIK (Kpost).
This study aimed to investigate the incidence, patient background, and postoperative prognosis of implantable collamer lens (ICL) dislocation. We retrospectively reviewed all cases of ICL dislocation at four major refractive surgery centers in Japan until December 2019. The incidence, patient background, cause of dislocation, complications of repositioning surgery, and postoperative visual function were investigated.

Methods: In this prospective study, the postoperative vault was examined using the KS formula in 121 eyes of 65 patients (28 men and 37 women) who underwent ICL implantation for myopia and myopic astigmatism. The mean horizontal angle-to-angle (ATA), anterior chamber depth, and axial length before surgery were 11.

This was a retrospective cohort study of subjects who underwent Hole implantable collamer lens surgery at Sanno Hospital, exhibited low vault, and were followed up for 1 year. Patients were included if they met the following criteria: 20≤ age ≤55 years; stable refraction ≥6 months; -1.

Purpose: To compare kinetic visual acuity, stereopsis, ocular deviation, and fusion amplitude before and after implantable collamer lens (ICL) surgery.
Setting: Sanno Hospital.
Design: Retrospective analysis.
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the relationships among crystalline lens shape, actual intraocular lens (IOL) position, and crystalline lens thickness (LT), as measured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), and to determine anterior ocular segment parameters that predict postoperative IOL position.
Methods: Seventy-nine eyes of 79 patients who underwent uneventful cataract surgery were enrolled. For crystalline lens preoperative anterior segment data, the LT, and anterior, equatorial, and posterior surface depths (ASD, ESD, and PSD, respectively) of crystalline lenses were quantitatively determined.
Purpose: To determine whether vault measurements after placement of a hole implantable collamer lens (hole ICL) (KS-AquaPORT) can be predicted by angle-to-angle (ATA) and white-to-white (WTW) measurements obtained with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).
Setting: Sanno Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Design: Retrospective case series.
Purpose: An appropriate vault after implantation of a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens with a central hole (ICL KS-AP) is important for successful long-term outcomes. In the present study, we used anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) to examine dynamic pupil and vault changes under photopic and scotopic conditions and during accommodation in eyes with ICL KS-AP.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients at an outpatient ophthalmology clinic who underwent ICL KS-AP implantation >1 month before enrollment.
Purpose: To compare the visual and refractive outcomes and night vision performance questionnaire results between V4c and V5 implantable Collamer lenses in a prospective, randomized, multicenter study.
Settings: Four refractive surgery centers.
Design: Prospective randomized multicenter single-masked comparative study.
