First Results of Observation of Patients with Complex Refractive Anomalies After Correction Using Phakic Intraocular Lenses
Abstract
Today, the frequency of complex refractive errors among people of active age is one of the main problems of our time. Phakic intraocular lens implantation is one of the most modern surgical methods for correcting of complex types of refractive errors. High myopia and compound myopic astigmatism are among the leading causes of reduced visual function in working-age adults. Spectacles, contact lenses and corneal laser surgery are often insufficient or contraindicated. Posterior-chamber phakic intraocular lenses (ICL) offer an alternative that preserves the cornea and the natural crystalline lens. To assess the early clinical results of collamer ICL implantation (VICM5 / VTICM5) in patients with high myopia and compound myopic astigmatism.
