Neodymium:YAG laser intraocular lens damage results in opacities in the pseudophakos. When located in the visual axis, these opacities may cause glare and image degradation. In this paper, we report a patient who experienced disabling glare sufficient to require the explanation of the YAG-damaged intraocular lens. The patient, her management and clinical course, and the pathology of the explanted lens are discussed.

Intraocular lens power calculation in cataract patients with keratoconus: Bayesian network meta-analysis.
Int Ophthalmol
January 2025
Beijing Tongren Eye Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences Key Laboratory, No.1, Dong Jiao Min Xiang, Dong Cheng District, Beijing, 100730, China.
Purpose: To compare the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas in cataract patients with keratoconus (KC).
Methods: This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis statementand and was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024568997). Pubmed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were searched for retrospective and prospective clinical studies published until October 2024.
Addition by Subtraction: Reversing Epikeratophakia and Stromal Scarring in a Patient With Myopia Magna.
Cornea
January 2025
Institut für Refraktive und Ophthalmo-Chirurgie (IROC), Zurich, Switzerland.
Purpose: To describe a three-phase surgical approach for managing progressive visual decline in a patient with myopia magna and a history of epikeratophakia.
Methods: A 55-year-old woman with previous epikeratophakia surgery in both eyes experienced progressive visual deterioration. The three-phase approach included: (1) removal of the epikeratophakia lenticule, (2) cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation, and (3) transepithelial topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (trans-PRK).
Refractive accuracy of the new Barrett formula using segmented axial length compared with that of the traditional Barrett Universal II formula.
J Cataract Refract Surg
January 2025
Yokohama Sky Building Eye Clinic, 2-19-12 Takashima, Yokohama, Nishi-ku, Kanagawa, 220-0011, Japan.
Purpose: To compare the refractive accuracy of the Barrett True axial length (BTAL) formula, newly integrated into ARGOS, with that of the Barrett Universal II (BUII) formula calculated using axial length (AL) from IOL Master 700.
Setting: Private clinics in Kanagawa, Japan.
Design: Retrospective observational study.
Five years comparation of efficacy and safety after ICL-V4c implantation for high and super high myopia correction.
Ann Med
December 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Chengdu City, China.
Objectives: The objective of the investigation is to examine the long term efficacy, safety, and predictability of ICL-V4c implantation for high and super-high myopic patients in order to provide reliable guidance for the selection of refractive surgical procedures.
Methods: We reviewed 125 eyes from 64 patients who implanted ICL-V4c at the Refractive Surgery Center of West China Hospital in Chengdu, China, between May 2015 and January 2017. These eyes were divided into two groups based on their preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) degree: high myopia (≥ -10D) and super-high myopia groups (< -10D).

Purpose: To evaluate the symptoms, etiology and treatment of patient dissatisfaction after extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.
Setting: University Eye Clinic, Maastricht University Medical Center, the Netherlands.
Design: Retrospective case series.
