Purpose: To report the long-term clinical experience following femtosecond intrastromal lenticule implantation (FILI) for the management of moderate to high hyperopia.

Methods: Eligible patients who underwent FILI for moderate to high hyperopia from July 2013 to October 2020 were included. A donor small incision lenticule extraction lenticule, matched for refractive error, was implanted into the recipient's corneal pocket created using a femtosecond laser at 160 µm depth.

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and report long-term outcomes with Bowman's membrane relaxation (BMR) for enhancing the residual refractive error following femtosecond intrastromal lenticule implantation (FILI).

Methods: BMR was performed using a Hessburg-Barron trephine to create a circular incision into the Bowman's membrane and anterior corneal fibers up to the depth of approximately 120 to 130 µm. After enhancement, clinical outcomes were analyzed for a mean period of 36 months (range: 14 to 57 months).

Purpose: To describe a unique method of biometric calculation and surgical technique of phacoemulsification and posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) implantation with an implantable collamer lens (ICL) in situ; for a high hyperope with post - ICL cataract.

Observations: A patient with high hyperopia who underwent bilateral ICL implantation later developed cataract in both eyes. He underwent phacoaspiration of the cataract with ICL in situ and a standard power PCIOL implantation in the left eye.
