Purpose: To compare implantable collamer lenses (ICLs) and acrylic implantable phakic contact lenses (IPCLs) in the treatment of myopia in adults, as regards refractive outcome and adverse effects.
Methods: Prospective, randomized comparative study with phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) was carried out for treatment of myopia. Patients were randomized into two groups: one for ICL and the other for IPCL. Preoperative assessments included a full examination, pentacam, endothelial cell count, and biometry. We compared the adverse effects and refractive outcomes between both groups. The study was registered in clinical trials and the registration number is NCT04624035.
Results: Sixty eyes of sixty patients (28 in the ICL group and 32 in the IPCL group) with a follow-up period of 12 months. The mean preoperative spherical equivalent was -12.7 ± 3.4 D and -13.6 ± 4.4 D in the ICL and IPCL groups, respectively (=0.37). The mean postoperative spherical equivalent value was ±0.4 ± 0.2 D and ±0.6 ± 0.1 D in the ICL and IPCL groups, respectively. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) has improved from 1.3 ± 0.06 to 0.15 ± 0.02 Log MAR in the ICL group ( < 0.001) and from 1.3 ± 0.02 to 0.15 ± 0.01 Log MAR in the IPCL group ( < 0.001). The mean endothelial cell count was reduced by 3.3% in the IPCL group and by 3.2% in the IPCL group.
Conclusion: Both ICL and IPCL are effective methods to correct high myopia in adults with no statistically significant differences between the two lenses as regarding adverse effects.

Article Synopsis
- This study compared the clinical outcomes of two types of phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) for correcting high myopia and myopic astigmatism: the Visian™ implantable collamer lenses (ICL) and implantable phakic contact lenses (IPCL).
- It included 80 eyes from 42 patients who underwent surgery between March 2021 and March 2022, with assessments conducted before and one year after surgery.
- Results showed no significant differences in visual acuity and safety between the ICL and IPCL groups postoperatively, indicating both lenses provided excellent outcomes for patients.
Safety and efficacy of implantable phakic contact lens versus implantable collamer lens in myopia correction.

Background: Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) have proven to be excellent substitutes for excimer laser keratorefractive surgery in certain situations. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of two pIOLs, the implantable collamer lens (ICL V4c) versus the implantable phakic contact lens (IPCL V2), for myopic correction.
Methods: In this prospective randomized clinical trial, we allocated eligible eyes with myopia > - 6 diopters into IPCL or ICL implantation groups, each including 100 eyes of 100 individuals.

Background: Achieving precise refractive outcomes in phakic posterior chamber intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation is crucial for patient satisfaction. This study investigates factors affecting pIOL power calculations, focusing on myopic eyes, and evaluates the potential benefits of advanced predictive models.
Design: Retrospective, single-center, algorithm improvement study.

: In this study, we aimed to compare the physical properties of hole-implantable collamer lenses (H-ICLs) and implantable phakic contact lenses (IPCLs) and investigate their flexural and cell adhesion characteristics. : Transverse compression load to achieve lens flexion and static Young's modulus were measured in H-ICLs and IPCLs using designated equipment. Load was measured both with and without restraining the optic section of the lenses.
