Abstract

PURPOSE: To evaluate efficacy, safety and stability of implantable collamer lens in high myopia.
METHODS:This study was non-randomized comparative prospective consecutive interventional study. It included 34 eyes with high myopia (≥ -6 Ds) attended to the outpatient ophthalmic clinic of Sohag university hospitals from the period from Jan.2016 to Jan.2017.
RESULTS:UCVA preoperative was (1.90±0.29) and UCVA postoperative was (0.27±0.21) with (p-value<0.000*). BCVA preoperative was (0.526±0.272) and that of BCVA postoperative was (0.217±0.128) with (p-value<0.001*),VA values are improved in 100% of cases which can be up to (0.1 logMAR or more) after 6 months follow up (p<0.000*).Spherical equivalent preoperative was (-15.173±4.079) and that of postoperative was (-0.269±0.787) with (p-value<0.000*), which didn’t change of spherical equivalent of manifest refraction ≥ 1.00 D within 6 months follow up period.
CONCLUSIONS:Implantable collamer lenses proved high efficacy, safety and stability for high myopic patients.
