Purpose: To compare visual acuity and contrast sensitivity between Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens (ICL) and Iris-Claw Anterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens (Artiflex) implantation for moderate to high myopia.
Setting: Dr. Lutfi Kirdar Kartal Training and Research Hospital, Eye Clinic, Istanbul, Turkey.
Participants: Sixty eyes of 30 myopic patients were included in the study. Thirty eyes of 15 patients underwent implantation of ICL (24)/ toric ICL (6) and 30 eyes of 15 patients underwent implantation of Artiflex.
Methods: Preoperative and postoperative 1, 6 and 12 months, logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (log MAR) uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), log MAR best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA), manifest refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), endothelial cell dens.. View More»
