Posterior chamber toric implantable collamer lenses vs LASIK for myopia and astigmatism: systematic review.

This systematic review compares the visual and refractive outcome of laser in situ keratomileusis with (toric) implantable collamer lens (ICL) in the treatment of myopic astigmatism. An electronic literature search led to 19 comparative articles. Refractive outcome, efficacy, safety, predictability, and stability as well as differences in contrast sensitivity and higher-order aberrations (HOAs) were analyzed for moderate (-3 to -6 diopters [D]) and high (≥-6 D) myopia.
