Abstract
AIM To evaluate refractive outcomes and corneal astigmatism changes after Toric implantable collamer lens with a central port (V4c T-ICL) implantation over 1y of follow-up. METHODS A retrospective study was performed including 50 eyes of 50 patients that underwent V4c T-ICL implantation. Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, refraction, refractive and corneal astigmatism changes and corneal coupling correction were evaluated preoperatively, 1 and 12mo postoperatively. Vector analysis was used for astigmatism changes. Coefficient of adjustment (CAdj) was calculated for corneal coupling analysis. RESULTS The mean UDVA achieved was 0.03 logMAR at 1mo and remained unchanged throughout the whole follow-up (P=0.193). At the last visit, 84% of the eyes achieved a CDVA of 0.00 logMAR or better. Regarding spherical equivalent refraction (SEQ), 96% of eyes were ranges of ±1.00 D and 84% of them within ±0.50 D. Also, 94% of eyes had a remaining refractive cylinder within ±1.00 D and 78% of them within ±0.50 D. Both, SEQ and refractive cylinder, remain stable over the postoperative follow-up (P=1.000 and P=0.660, respectively). In terms of surgically induced astigmatism (SIA), no statistically significant differences were found over the follow-up (P=0.102) and under correction was found with a correction index lower than the unit at each visit. A keratometric astigmatism induced of 0.59±0.53 (vector mean: 0.26×73°) D was reached at the last visit. No significant changes in terms of corneal astigmatism orientation were reported over post-surgery visits (P=0.129 and P=0.097 at 1 and 12mo respectively). No clinical significance was found for CAdj on with-the-rule astigmatism. No postoperative complications resulting from the surgery were found. CONCLUSION Refractive outcomes suggest that the V4c T-ICL implantation for correction of myopic astigmatism was satisfactory in terms of effectiveness, safety, and stability during 1y of follow-up. Corneal astigmatism induced by the incision around 0.5 D is achieved according to the remaining refractive cylinder found at one-year post-surgery. Corneal coupling analysis results in no unexpected spherical change.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To comparatively analyze the surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) of the anterior, posterior, and total corneas of eyes undertaking implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation with temporal or superior corneal incisions. METHODS One hundred and nine eyes of 109 patients who received ICL implantation were recruited: 40 eyes had temporal incisions and 69 eyes had superior incisions. Total corneal refractive power (TCRP); simulated keratometry of the anterior (Sim-KAnt) and posterior (Sim-KPost) corneal curvature; and astigmatism of the anterior (CAAnt), posterior (CAPost), and total (CATCRP) cornea were recorded through a Pentacam preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. The SIA of the anterior, posterior, and total cornea were also compared between the two groups. RESULTS There were no significant intergroup differences for TCRP, Sim-KAnt, Sim-KPost, CAAnt, CAPost, or CATCRP, preoperatively. However, values of CAAnt, CAPost, and CATCRP with temporal incision were significantly higher than those parameters with superior incision postoperatively. All of the SIA of the anterior, posterior, and total cornea were significantly lower for temporal incision than those with a superior incision (p < 0.001, p = 0.006 and p = 0.001 respectively). Meanwhile, the superior incisions created against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism, and temporal incisions always induce with-the-rule (WTR) astigmatism in total cornea. CONCLUSIONS A superior incision may be suitable for correcting WTR astigmatism, while a temporal incision for correcting ATR astigmatism when using a non-toric ICL. Meanwhile, temporal incision could be a better choice with little preoperative astigmatism or that preoperative astigmatism would be corrected with toric ICLs.

BMC Ophthalmol 2024; 24:40. [PMID: 38273262 PMCID: PMC10809649 DOI: 10.1186/s12886-024-03311-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the corneal high-order aberrations and surgically induced astigmatism between the clear corneal incision and limbus tunnel incision for posterior chamber implantable collamer lens (ICL/TICL) implantation. METHODS A total of 127 eyes from 73 myopic patients underwent ICL V4c implantation, with 70 eyes receiving clear corneal incisions and 57 eyes receiving limbus tunnel incisions. The anterior and back corneal surfaces were measured and the Root Mean Square of all activated aberrations (TRMS) was calculated, including higher-order aberration (HOA RMS), spherical aberration Z40, coma coefficients (Coma RMS) Z3-1 Z31, and surgically induced astigmatism (SIA). The measurements were taken preoperatively and postoperatively at 1 day, 1 week, and 1, 3, and 6 months. In this study, the corneal higher-order aberration was estimated as the Zernike coefficient calculated up to 5th order. The measurements were taken at a maximum diameter of 6.5 mm using Pentacam. RESULTS One week after the operation, the corneal back Z31 of the clear corneal incision group was 0.06 ± 0.06, while the limbus tunnel incision group showed a measurement of 0.05 ± 0.06 (p = 0.031). The corneal back Z40 of the clear corneal incision group was -0.02 ± 0.25, compared to -0.04 ± 0.21 in the limbus tunnel incision group (p = 0.01). One month after the operation, the corneal back SIA of the clear corneal incision group was 0.11 ± 0.11, compared to 0.08 ± 0.11of the limbus tunnel incision group (p = 0.013), the corneal total SIA of the clear corneal incision group was 0.33 ± 0.30, compared to 0.15 ± 0.16 in the limbus tunnel incision group (p = 0.004); the clear corneal incision group exhibited higher levels of back astigmatism and total SIA than the limbus tunnel incision in the post-operation one month period. During the 6- month post-operative follow-up period, no significant difference in Z31, Z40, and other HOA RMS data was observed between the two groups. The total SIA of the corneal incision group and the limbus tunnel incision group were 0.24 ± 0.14 and 0.33 ± 0.32, respectively (p = 0.393), showing no significant difference between the two groups 6 months after the operation. CONCLUSION Our data showed no significant difference in the high-order aberration and SIA between clear corneal incision and limbus tunnel incision up to 6 months after ICL-V4c implantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the long-term (8-10 years) outcomes of toric implantable collamer lens (TICL) surgery. SETTING Nagoya Eye Clinic, Nagoya, Aichi, Japan. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. METHODS Patients who underwent TICL surgery from 2005 to 2009 to correct myopia and myopic astigmatism were enrolled. The safety, efficacy, predictability, astigmatism correction efficacy, and complications were evaluated using preoperative, 1-year postoperative, and final examination data. RESULTS 133 eyes of 77 patients were included. At the final visit, the mean uncorrected and corrected visual acuities were -0.01 ± 0.2 and -0.17 ± 0.05, respectively. The mean safety and efficacy indices were 0.91 ± 0.26 and 0.68 ± 0.21, respectively. The manifest astigmatism was -0.45 ± 0.43 diopters (D). The mean corneal astigmatism change from 1 year postoperatively to the final visit was 0.40 ± 0.26 D. Of the 38 eyes with a change in corneal astigmatism ≥0.5 D, 30 eyes (78.9%) changed to against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism, 1 (2.6%) changed to oblique astigmatism, and 7 (18.4%) changed to with-the-rule (WTR) astigmatism. The mean manifest astigmatism change from 1 year postoperatively to the final visit was 0.43 ± 0.52 D. Of the 60 eyes with a change in manifest astigmatism ≥0.5 D, 25 (41.7%) changed to ATR astigmatism, 18 (30.0%) changed to oblique astigmatism, and 17 (28.3%) changed to WTR astigmatism. During follow-up, 8 (6.0%) of 133 eyes developed anterior subcapsular cataracts, among which 4 (3.0%) underwent TICL removal and phacoemulsification and aspiration. No vision-threatening complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS TICL surgery showed good long-term astigmatism-correcting effects, although the long-term uncorrected visual acuity decreased. The procedure was effective in correcting myopia and astigmatism.

Short-term clinic observation of misalignment and rotational stability after implantable collamer lens implantation. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2022; 261:1473-1481. [PMID: 36484805 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-022-05929-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 11/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to investigate misalignment (tilt and decentration) and rotational stability of the implantable collamer lens V4c 6 months after implantation and to explore the potential risk factors associated with postoperative misalignment and rotation. METHODS A total of 36 eyes of 36 patients with high myopia and myopic astigmatism who underwent implantable collamer lens V4c implantation were included in this study. Tilt, decentration, and rotation of the implantable collamer lens were assessed postoperatively at l week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. Correlation analysis was used to identify the potential risk factors for implantable collamer lens tilt, decentration, and rotation at 6 months postoperatively. Higher-order aberration was measured to evaluate the effect of implantable collamer lens misalignment on visual quality at pupil diameters of 4.0 mm and 6.0 mm. RESULTS The tilt and decentration at the last follow-up were 2.43 ± 1.35° and 0.278 ± 0.160 mm, respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between tilt and decentration (r = 0.31, P = 0.046). No significant correlation was detected between implantable collamer lens decentration and internal higher-order aberrations (P > 0.05). The degree of implantable collamer lens rotation (3.11 ± 2.00°) was significantly associated with the vault (r = - 0.422, P = 0.01), while it was positively associated with the preoperative anterior chamber depth (r = 0.36, P = 0.034). No significant correlation was found between postoperative astigmatism and rotation (r = - 0.07, P = 0.351). CONCLUSIONS The implantable collamer lens V4c provides relatively stable misalignment and rotation after implantation. The ICL lens vault is a potential risk factor for postoperative implantable collamer lens rotation. The absolute value of decentration and tilt was relatively small, which showed no correlation with internal higher-order aberration in short-term observation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review all phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) available in the United States for the correction of myopia or myopic astigmatism and offer a clinical approach to their proper use, postoperative follow-up, and analysis of visual and adverse outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS In March 2022, the FDA approved the EVO/EVO+ Visian ICL for widespread use, adding this lens to the two others available (Verisyse, Visian ICL). Cataract formation, endothelial cell loss (ECL) and surgical reintervention remain the most common adverse events. There are discrepancies between studies on ECL following implantation with pIOLs, although trends can be deduced with meta-analysis. Posterior Chamber-pIOLs (PC-pIOLs), especially the EVO/EVO+, have an overall lower mean adverse effect and subjective patient symptom profile when compared to Iris Fixated-pIOLS (IF-pIOLs). Advancements in PC-pIOL sizing have provided a noticeable difference in visual and safety outcomes. SUMMARY All pIOLs available in the United States provide high-quality visual correction of moderate to high myopia and/or myopia with astigmatism. Proper follow-up for ECL and cataract formation is warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare visual, refractive, and safety outcomes of toric posterior chamber Implantable Collamer Lens (T-ICL) (STAAR Surgical) and toric iris-fixated foldable phakic intraocular lens (IOL) (T-Artiflex; Ophtec BV) implantation for the correction of myopic astigmatism. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 312 eyes of 312 patients who had phakic IOL implantation for myopic astigmatism. Two groups were defined: 205 eyes that underwent T-ICL implantation and 107 eyes that underwent T-Artiflex implantation. Safety, efficacy, and predictability outcomes were evaluated preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively. Refractive and corneal astigmatic vector analysis were performed using the Alpins method. RESULTS One year postoperatively, uncorrected distance visual acuity was 0.05 ± 0.18 (T-ICL) and 0.10 ± 0.16 (T-Artiflex) logMAR, with efficacy indexes of 1.16 ± 0.27 and 1.05 ± 0.31, respectively (P < .001). Safety indexes were 1.28 ± 0.30 and 1.21 ± 0.31, respectively (P = .04). Spherical equivalent was within ±0.50 diopters (D) of emmetropia in 165 (80.5%) and 88 (82.2%) eyes, respectively. Refractive astigmatic analysis showed an index of success of 0.28 ± 0.33 (T-ICL) and 0.31 ± 0.26 (T-Artiflex) (P = .07). Surgically induced corneal astigmatism was 0.48 ± 0.74 and 0.81 ± 0.61 D, respectively (P < .001). Mean endothelial loss was 1.11% and 2.05%, respectively (P = .42). Six (2.9%) eyes in the T-ICL group and 1 (0.9%) eye in the T-Artiflex group had phakic IOL repositioning due to significant misalignment. No vision-threatening complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS Both the T-ICL and T-Artiflex groups showed high visual and refractive efficacy with a good safety profile for the correction of myopic astigmatism. T-ICL implantation demonstrated significantly better efficacy and safety indexes after 12 months. Vector analysis showed similar refractive astigmatic correction in both groups, but T-Artiflex implantation revealed higher surgically induced corneal astigmatism.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the 2-year visual quality of Evolution Implantable Collamer Lens (EVO-ICL) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for the correction of low myopia. Methods In this prospective study, we included 25 eyes of 25 patients (7 men) who underwent EVO-ICL and 36 eyes of 36 patients (16 men) who underwent SMILE between January 2018 and December 2018. Subjective and objective visual outcomes were compared between ICL and SMILE. All patients were followed for 2 years. Results At the postoperative 2-year visit, the percentage of patients with uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) greater than or equal to preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was comparable in the ICL group (80%, 20/25) and SMILE group (88.89%, 32/36). Spherical equivalent (SE) was within ± 0.50 D in 96% (24/25) of the ICL group and 94.44% (34/36) of the SMILE group. No eyes lost more than 2 lines of CDVA. Postoperative high-order aberrations (HOAs) were significantly increased in the ICL group (p < 0.01) and in the SMILE group (p < 0.01). The most common visual complaint was halo after ICL and starburst after SMILE. There was no correlation between HOAs and visual complaints (p > 0.05). Conclusion Evolution Implantable Collamer Lens provides comparable safety, efficacy, long-term visual stability, and high patient satisfaction when compared to SMILE in correcting low myopia. EVO-ICL could be a favorable alternative for low myopia. Key messages What was known? What this paper adds?

Abstract
Background To compare the arithmetic mean (M-SIA) and the summated vector mean of surgically induced astigmatism (SVM-SIA) according to the incision site after phakic intraocular lens (Visian implantable collamer lens (ICL), STAAR Surgical) implantation. Methods This study comprised 121 eyes of 121 consecutive patients undergoing ICL surgery through a 3.0-mm temporal or superior clear corneal incision. The magnitude and the axis of corneal astigmatism preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively were measured using an automated keratometer. The M-SIA and the SVM-SIA were determined according to the incision site. Results The magnitude of corneal astigmatism significantly increased from 1.23 ± 0.59 D preoperatively to 1.46 ± 0.72 D postoperatively in the temporal incision group (Wilcoxon signed-rank test, P < 0.001), but it significantly decreased from 1.09 ± 0.36 D preoperatively to 0.86 ± 0.41 D postoperatively in the superior incision group (P < 0.001). The M-SIA was 0.48 ± 0.30 D, and the SVM-SIA was 0.23 ± 0.52 D at a meridian of 82° in the temporal incision group. The M-SIA was 0.57 ± 0.30 D, and the SVM-SIA was 0.47 ± 0.45 D at a meridian of 1° in the superior incision group. Conclusions ICL implantation induces the M-SIA by approximately 0.5 D, but the SVM-SIA decreased to 50% and 80% of the M-SIA in magnitude through temporal and superior incisions, respectively. The direction of the SVM-SIA showed a tendency toward corneal flattening to the incisional site. It should be noted that the M-SIA is somewhat different from the SVM-SIA according to the incision site.

[PMID: 33432990 DOI: 10.3928/1081597x-20201013-04] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Accepted: 10/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the 2-year visual and refractive outcomes with the Eyecryl Phakic Toric IOL (EP TIOL) (Biotech Vision Care Pvt Ltd) and Visian Toric ICL (TICL) (STAAR Surgical) for correction of high myopic astigmatism. METHODS This prospective, interventional, non-randomized comparison study included eligible patients who underwent toric phakic IOL surgery in one or both eyes with either the EP TIOL or TICL for myopic astigmatism. Two years postoperatively, both lenses were compared for their safety, efficacy, stability, and patient satisfaction. Vector analysis of astigmatism was performed using the Alpins method with the ASSORT software (ASSORT Party Ltd). RESULTS A total of 50 eyes were included, of which 25 eyes received EP TIOL implantation and the remaining 25 received TICL implantation. Preoperative mean ± standard deviation of spherical equivalent (SE) and cylinder was -10.15 ± 4.04 and -2.08 ± 0.86 diopters (D) in the EP TIOL group and -10.21 ± 3.97 and -2.17 ± 0.95 D in the TICL group, respectively. At 2 years of follow-up, there was no significant difference between the mean uncorrected distance visual acuity, corrected distance visual acuity, spherical equivalent, and residual astigmatism between the two groups (P > .05 for all parameters). Ninety-two percent of eyes in the EP TIOL group and 88% of eyes in the TICL group were within ±0.50 D of refractive astigmatism. Vector analysis of astigmatism showed a comparable Correction Index of 0.98 in the EP TIOL group and 0.94 in the TICL group, signifying a mild undercorrection of 2% and 6%, respectively. Two eyes in the TICL group underwent exchange for high vault and one eye required realignment due to significant postoperative rotation. CONCLUSIONS At least for the first 2 years postoperatively, both toric phakic IOLs were safe and effective in managing high myopic astigmatism with comparable visual results and patient satisfaction.

Abstract
Purpose To report visual outcomes following surgical correction of myopic astigmatism with Visian Toric implantable collamer lens (ICL) (STAAR Surgical, Monrovia, CA, USA) at a single tertiary refractive center in the United States. Patients and Methods Toric ICL was implanted in 96 eyes (55 patients) with mean preoperative sphere of −8.98 ± 3.04 diopters (D) and cylinder of −2.67 ± 1.02 D from December 2018 to February 2021. Primary visual outcomes of efficacy, safety, stability, predictability of refractive correction, and astigmatic analysis were reported at three and twelve months postoperatively. Secondary subjective outcomes included patient-reported dry eye symptoms and glare/halos at postoperative visits. Other secondary outcomes were biometric data and postoperative vault over time. Results At three and twelve months, 75 and 46 eyes were evaluated, respectively. At twelve months, the mean manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) was −0.23 ± 0.47 D with 93% achieving within ±1.00 D of target refraction. The manifest refractive cylinder (MRC) at twelve months was −0.73 ± 0.51 D, with 86% within ±1.00 D of target. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was 20/20 or better in 74% of eyes at twelve months. No patients lost ≥2 lines of corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) at twelve months. The mean angle of error was −0.9 ± 10.2° at three months and −1.6 ± 12.8° at twelve months. One patient required bilateral lens rotation, four patients underwent secondary enhancement with LASIK/PRK, and seven patients underwent postoperative limbal relaxing incisions. Conclusion This initial single-site experience finds Toric ICL implantation for myopic astigmatism to be safe and effective. Patients can achieve markedly improved UDVA in a single surgery with stable vision over time and minimal adverse subjective symptoms.

Abstract
Objective: Refractive management in keratoconus is challenging. Although some kinds of phakic intraocular lenses have been studied in keratoconus so far, no study evaluated the results of EyeCryl Phakic Toric intraocular lenses in this kind of patients. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective chart review study, including all keratoconus patients implanted with an EyeCryl Phakic Toric intraocular lens in at least one of their eyes by an experienced cornea surgeon in Colombia. Follow-up to 6 months after surgery was also included. Results: A total of 20 eyes of 14 patients were included, with an average age of 29.3 ± 4.2 years. Spherical equivalent improved from a pre-surgical value of –10.31 D to +0.09 D at 6 months. 65% of the patients improved at least one line in the best-corrected distance visual acuity. At 6 months, 70% of the patients were within ± 0.50 D of spherical equivalent emmetropia. No complications occurred in any of the patients. Conclusion: EyeCryl Phakic intraocular lenses are an excellent option in keratoconus patients with high refractive error. Abbreviations: KC = Keratoconus, P-IOL = phakic intraocular lenses, ICL = Implantable Collamer Lens, WTW = White to White, SD = standard deviation, ANOVA = an analysis of variance, UDVA = monocular uncorrected distance visual acuity, CDVA = corrected distance visual acuity

Acta Ophthalmol 2021; 99:326-333. [PMID: 32840066 DOI: 10.1111/aos.14584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2020] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the changes in anterior lens density with a Pentacam after Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) V4c implantation in patients with myopia. METHODS This prospective case series examined 62 eyes of 32 patients (mean age, 28.5 ± 5.73 years) with myopia or myopic astigmatism after ICL V4c implantation. Uncorrected distance vision acuity, corrected distance vision acuity (CDVA), manifest refraction, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), anterior chamber angle (ACA), endothelial cell density and Pentacam images of lens density were obtained pre- and postoperatively. The vault was obtained during the follow-ups. RESULTS Patients were followed up for an average of 51 ± 2.7 months (range, 48-57 months). All surgeries were uneventful, without any complication. The efficacy and safety indices at the last follow-up were 1.03 ± 0.2 and 1.22 ± 0.22, respectively. No eye had decreased CDVA, and 66% eyes gained ≥1 line. Furthermore, refractive error in 90% eyes was within ±0.50 D and that of 100% was within ±1.0 D of the attempted refraction. Anterior average lens density (a-ALD) in the 0.5-, 1.0- and 1.5-mm depth zones increased by 10.41 ± 11.51%, 17.1 ± 11.09% and 16.76 ± 10.4%, respectively, compared to preoperative values (all p < 0.05). The change in a-ALD between two different age groups was not significant. Moreover, there were no significant correlations between the change in a-ALD and age, preoperative spherical equivalent, ACD, ACA, ACV or vault. CONCLUSIONS Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) V4c implantation demonstrates safety and efficacy for myopia correction. Although a-ALD increased slightly at 4 years postoperatively, no cataract developed during the follow-up. Further studies should investigate the reason for the postoperative increase in a-ALD.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate refractive and visual outcomes as well as rotational stability following implantation of Eyecryl phakic toric intraocular lens (pIOL) for moderate-to-high myopic astigmatism. METHODS The efficacy, safety, predictability, stability, and adverse events of Eyecryl toric pIOL were evaluated in patients with spherical refraction from - 4.50 to - 18.50 diopters (D) and cylindrical refraction from - 0.50 to - 5.50 D. RESULTS This study included 60 eyes of 31 patients. The mean manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) dropped from - 10.45 ± 2.74 D preoperatively to - 0.34 ± 0.51 D and - 0.40 ± 0.56 D at 6 and 12 months postoperatively, respectively. There was an 81% decrease in astigmatism after surgery. The safety and efficacy of indices were 1.36 ± 0.43 and 1.20 ± 0 .32. At the final follow-up, the rate of eyes within ± 1.00 D and ± 0.50 D of the desired MRSE were 85% and 68.33%, respectively. Vision-threatening complications were not observed during the follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The implantation of pIOL was effective, safe, and predictable in patients with moderate-to-high myopic astigmatism during 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the clinical outcomes and possible risk factors associated with rotational stability after the implantation of a V4c toric implantable Collamer lens (TICL) for the correction of moderate to high myopic astigmatism. Methods A total of 112 eyes of 66 patients with moderate to high myopic astigmatism underwent TICL implantation. All patients were followed up for more than 1 year. The uncorrected and best-corrected visual acuity (UCVA and BCVA), astigmatism and spherical equivalent, intraocular pressure, vault, endothelial cell morphometry, and rotation of the TICL axis were assessed at l day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months postoperatively. Postoperative rotation was defined as the angle between the intended axis and the achieved axis. Regression analysis was used to investigate the possible risk factors for TICL rotation postoperatively. Results The mean efficacy index and safety index 12 months postoperatively were 1.03 ± 0.09 and 1.05 ± 0.10, respectively. All patients had the same or better visual acuity than preoperatively. The mean astigmatism value decreased from -1.86 ± 0.79 D preoperatively to -0.37 ± 0.35 D. The mean absolute axis deviation of the TICL at the last follow-up was 2.75 ± 2.04° (range, 0°∼11°). The mean manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) changed from -9.04 ± 2.67 D preoperatively to -0.67 ± 0.51 D postoperatively. The logistic regression demonstrated that the absolute degree of TICL rotation had a significant association with the fixation angle of the TICL and the size of the lens (P=0.003, P=0.026, resp.). Conclusion The results of our study support that TICL implantation is safe, effective, and predictable in the treatment of moderate to high myopic astigmatism, with relatively good postoperative rotational stability.

Abstract
Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) are a common solution for the surgical correction of high myopia and myopia in thin corneas. Global trends result in increasing rates of patients with high myopia which will result in increased rates of pIOL implantation. Three types of lenses can be distinguished: anterior chamber angle-supported, anterior chamber iris-fixated, and posterior chamber phakic IOLs. The efficacy of phakic intraocular lenses is generally very good, but pIOLs have undergone many changes over the years to improve the safety profile and decrease pIOL-related complications such as endothelial cell loss, corneal decompensation and cataract formation. This article describes the efficacy and safety profiles of the most recent pIOLs, as well as suggests gaps of knowledge that are deserve additional research to optimize the results of pIOLs.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study sought to compare the postoperative visual outcomes of toric implantable collamer lens (T-ICL) with toric Artiflex (T-Artiflex) lenses. DESIGN Alternating treatment, contralateral eye matched clinical study. METHODS This study compared 82 eyes of 41 patients with T-ICL lenses in one eye and toric Artiflex implantation in the contralateral eye to correct myopic astigmatism. Safety, efficacy, predictability, astigmatic vector changes, contrast sensitivity, endothelial cell count, and possible adverse events were assessed at least 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS After a mean follow-up of 12 months, the safety index was mean 1.40 ± 0.70 in the T-ICL group and 1.20 ± 0.21 in the T-Artiflex group. Furthermore, their mean efficacy indexes were 1.24 ± 0.42 and 1.08 ± 0.23, respectively (P = .029). A total of 39 eyes (95%) in the T-ICL group and 41 eyes (100%) in the T-Artiflex group were within ±1.00 diopter (D) of emmetropia and 33 eyes (80%) and 34 eyes (83%) were within ±0.5 D of emmetropia, respectively. Vector analysis revealed mean index of success as large as 0.25 ± 0.22 in the T-ICL group and 0.24 ± 0.15 in the T-Artiflex group. Postoperative contrast sensitivities were equal in both groups under mesopic conditions for any given spatial frequency. There was an endothelial loss of 2.18% and 1.95% in the T-ICL and T-Artiflex groups, respectively. There were no significant complications in any of the groups. CONCLUSIONS Both lenses showed promising results in terms of safety, efficacy, and predictability for correction of myopic astigmatism. As shown in this paired-eye study, most outcomes were almost identical, and neither of these lenses were clinically superior to the other.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the efficacy, repeatability, and efficiency of a new intraoperative contactless device (INTEGRA Optomed, Chorzów, Poland) for determining the axis for toric intraocular lens implantation and then to compare this with that determined using a manual method.This study was conducted at the Ophthalmological Center for Children and Adults Optomed, Chorzów, Poland.This nonrandomized, retrospective, observational study included 20 eyes of 12 patients (5 males and 7 females) who had toric intraocular lens implanted. A video recording of each surgery using the INTEGRA system was made showing the analysis. The surgeon and one of the researchers then independently assessed the location of the implant axes determined with both digital and manual slit-lamp methods, and compared them.The implantation axes suggested for both the manual and INTEGRA methods were similar. The median axis disparities were 0.0 degree and 0.5 degree, and standard deviations were 0.61 and 0.81 for researcher 1 and 2, respectively. The dominant value was 0.0 in both groups. The INTEGRA axis designation was not statistically different from the manual method (level of significance: α < 0.01).The INTEGRA system is a digital ink-free device for image tracking scleral vessels. It was helpful for determining the implantation axis in a precise and repeatable manner, and measurements were comparable with a manual technique.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the angle-to-angle (ATA) distance, and the repeatability and the reproducibility of these measurements among the three devices. METHODS We performed the ATA measurements in 26 healthy subjects using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (CASIA2, Tomey, Japan), the Scheimpflug camera (Pentacam HR, Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany), and the combined Placido-ring corneal topography and Scheimpflug camera (TMS-5, Tomey). We also compared the repeatability and the reproducibility of the ATA measurements among these three devices. RESULTS The ATA in the CASIA2 group was significantly larger than that in the Pentacam group (Bonferroni test, p = 0.002), or that in the TMS-5 group (p < 0.001). The coefficient variation of the first and second ATA measurements for a single examiner was 0.44% in the CASIA2 group, followed by 0.84% in the TMS-5 group, and 1.92% in the Pentacam group. The coefficient variation of the ATA measurements for two examiners was 0.61% in the CASIA2 group, followed by 0.97% in the TMS-5 group, and 1.84% in the Pentacam group. CONCLUSIONS The ATA distance measured with the CASIA2 was ~0.40 and 0.56 mm larger than that with the Pentacam and the TMS-5, respectively. The CASIA2 provided the highest repeatability and reproducibility of the ATA measurements, followed by the TMS-5, and the Pentacam. These three instruments cannot be used interchangeably in terms of ATA measurements.

Abstract
Purpose To estimate the treatment effectiveness of femtosecond-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) and Toric implantable collamer lens (Toric ICL) for moderate and high astigmatism via vector analysis. Materials and Methods The study involved 44 eyes from 44 patients who had a preoperative refractive cylinder ≥1.0 diopters (D) and underwent bilateral FS-LASIK or Toric ICL surgery. The examinations included corrected distance visual acuity measurement and subjective refraction before and 3 months after surgery. The astigmatic changes were estimated using vector analysis. Results No statistically significant differences were found in cylindrical refraction and percentage of spherical equivalent within 0 D, ±0.50 D, ±1.00 D, and ±1.50 D between the FS-LASIK and Toric ICL groups at 3 months after surgery. The parameters of the vector analysis included intended refractive correction, surgically induced refractive correction, error vector, correction ratio, error ratio, error of magnitude, and error of angle, with no significant differences between the groups. However, error ratio the of the off-axis correction in the FS-LASIK and Toric ICL groups was 4.11 ± 3.02 and 8.11 ± 3.82, respectively, and the difference was significant (t = −2.46, p=0.02). Conclusion Both FS-LASIK and Toric ICL were effective for correcting moderate and high astigmatism, although Toric ICL might produce a larger error of angle than FS-LASIK when an off-axis correction occurs.

[PMID: 30057804 PMCID: PMC6051026 DOI: 10.1155/2018/8678352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2018] [Revised: 05/21/2018] [Accepted: 05/30/2018] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate two-year outcomes of Visian Implantable Collamer Lens with a central hole (ICL V4c) implantation for correcting high myopia. Methods Sixty-one eyes of 32 patients went through ICL V4c implantation. Safety, efficacy, predictability, and intraocular pressure were evaluated 2 years postoperatively. Anterior chamber volume (ACV), anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber angle width (ACAW), and vault were measured using a Scheimpflug tomography imaging system. Results At 2 years, the spherical equivalent refraction decreased from preoperative −14.62 ± 4.29 D to −0.90 ± 0.95 D, with 79% of the eyes within ±0.50 D and 98% within ±1.00 D of the intended correction. The efficacy index was 1.03 ± 0.23, and the safety index was 1.24 ± 0.26. Corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) remained unchanged in 23% of the eyes, 75% gained one or more lines of CDVA, and 2% lost one line. The ACV, ACD, and ACAW, respectively, decreased from 193.28 ± 29.15 mm3, 3.15 ± 0.23 mm, and 36.51 ± 6.54 degree to 112.48 ± 17.01 mm3, 2.99 ± 0.23 mm, and 22.54 ± 5.27 degree (p=0.0008, 0.008, and 0.0003, resp.). Intraocular pressure was 15.39 ± 2.88 mmHg before surgery and was 15.86 ± 4.11 mmHg at 2 years (p=0.11). Conclusion Implantation of ICL V4c is a safe, effective, and predictable procedure for correcting high myopia. Reduction of anterior chamber space after surgery did not induce intraocular pressure increase during the 2-year follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the efficacy and rotational stability after implantation of two types of toric implantable collamer lenses (Toric ICL™(TICL);V4 and V4c, STAAR Surgical Co.). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS This retrospective study evaluated total 48 eyes of 48 patients who underwent the implantation with V4 and V4c TICL with a central hole; A twenty-four eyes of 24 patients with V4 TICL and 24 eyes of 24 patients with V4c TICL with a central hole. Visual acuity, manifest refraction, and intraocular pressure were evaluated before and after surgery. Rotational stability (disparity between the intended axis and achieved axis) was assessed in both groups using digital anterior segment photographs, and vector analysis was also performed. RESULTS Uncorrected visual acuity improved in both groups without significant difference (P = .111). There were no statistical differences between two groups in postoperative SE and cylindrical errors (P = .067 and .384, respectively). The mean value of rotation was 4.17±3.31° and 3.39±2.36° in the V4 and V4c TICL groups, respectively without significant difference (P = .364). Vector analysis of astigmatic correction showed no significant diffrence between two groups. CONCLUSION V4 and V4c TICL have similar efficacy with regard to visual acuity and refractive outcomes and rotational stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the clinical application of phakic toric intraocular collamer lens (TICL) implantation in treating ametropia following deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) for patients with keratoconus, especially the effectiveness and safety of high astigmatism and indications of TICL implantation after corneal transplantation. METHODS Using the self-controlled case series observation approach, 9 patients with ametropia (9 eyes) who underwent DALK surgery for keratoconus 1.5 years ago with stitches removed 3 months ago were kept under observation from May 2013 to April 2014 in Ophthalmic Center of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University. TICL implantation was performed in all patients. The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were examined before surgery and 1 week, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after surgery. Corneal astigmatism, corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, corneal endothelial cell density (ECD), and preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressures at different time points were measured. Intraoperative or postoperative complications of TICL implantation were observed, and the safety of the operation was evaluated. RESULTS The UCVA and BCVA in all operated eyes were better 6 months after surgery than before surgery. The spherical diopter and cylindrical diopter decreased to different degrees after surgery. Six months after surgery, the deviation of TICL axis in all operated eyes was less than 10 degrees, tending to be stable. No severe intraoperative or postoperative complication occurred. CONCLUSION TICL implantation was an optional choice for ametropia correction after DALK surgery, especially in patients with high astigmatism.

Abstract
PurposeAlthough one of the advantages of the Hole-ICL implantation is that laser iridotomy (LI) is unnecessary, the evidence have not been reported from the viewpoint of aqueous humor circulation. We investigated the effect of laser iridotomy (LI) on the fluid dynamics of aqueous humor in an implantable collamer lens (ICL) with a central hole, that is, a Hole-ICL using computational fluid dynamics.MethodsA fluid dynamics simulation was performed using the thermal-hydraulic analysis software FloEFD (Mentor Graphics Corp.). For the simulation, three-dimensional eye models with a conventional ICL (Model ICM, STAAR SURGICAL) and a Hole-ICL were used. The LI diameters were 250 and 500 μm. The flow distribution between the anterior surface of the crystalline lens and the posterior surface of the ICL was also calculated.ResultsThe flow velocity 0.25 mm in front of the center of the crystalline lens in the Hole-ICL without LI, with LI of 250 μm, and with LI of 500 μm was 1.48 × 10-1, 1.20 × 10-1, and 4.52 × 10-2 mm/s, respectively. The flow velocity in the conventional ICL without LI, with LI of 250 μm, and with LI of 500 μm was 1.21 × 10-5, 3.60 × 10-4, and 6.33 × 10-4 mm/s, respectively.ConclusionsThese results suggest that there is less need for LI in a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens with a central hole from the viewpoint of aqueous humor circulation, although the results can be considered only in an ideal condition and further studies are needed to clarify the effect of LI in clinical practice.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the efficacy and outcome of phakic toric implantable collamer lens (TICL) and refractive clear lens extraction with AcrySof Toric intraocular lens (TIOL) implantation for the treatment of myopic astigmatism. Patients and methods This study assessed eyes with myopic astigmatism >−1 D and ≤−4 D with a spherical equivalent >10 D or <10 D if the patients were unsuitable for corneal refractive surgery. These eyes were divided into group A, in which Visian Toric ICL™ Phakic TICL was implanted, and group B, which involved clear lens extraction with implantation of an AcrySof IQ toric SN60T3-9™ IOL. The outcome and complications were evaluated. Results This study enrolled 63 eyes of 38 patients with a follow-up period of at least 6 months. The mean postoperative spherical equivalent was −0.19±0.31 D in group A and −0.21±0.28 D in group B (P=0.69). The mean postoperative cylinder value was −0.46±0.53 D in group A and −0.32±0.41 D in group B (P=0.35). Postoperative cylinder was <1 D in 76.47% and 79.31% of eyes in groups A and B, respectively. The mean endothelial cell count was reduced by 4.32% in group A and by 5.32% in group B (P=0.003). The mean postoperative intraocular pressure increased insignificantly in group A (P=0.22) and reduced significantly in group B (P=0.004). The complication rate was 11.76% in group A and 6.90% in group B. Conclusion Both procedures showed predictable results and good visual results. However, the loss of accommodation and risk of retinal complications in the TIOL group suggest that the use of TICL for myopic astigmatism is a better choice in younger patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the clinical effects of combined full-thickness astigmatic keratotomy and small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in patients who are inoperable using SMILE alone. METHODS We included 13 eyes of 9 patients with high-level or mixed astigmatism who underwent full-thickness astigmatic keratotomy followed by SMILE (secondarily) to correct the residual refractive error. RESULTS Six months after SMILE, the spherical equivalent was reduced from -4.83 ± 3.26 D to -0.17 ± 0.38 D (P < 0.001), and the astigmatism was reduced from 5.12 ± 0.96 D to 0.21 ± 0.22 D (P < 0.001). The uncorrected and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities improved from 1.07 ± 0.62 to 0.02 ± 0.13 (P < 0.001) and from 0.08 ± 0.14 to -0.01 ± 0.14 (P = 0.002), respectively. The CDVA improved by 1 or 2 Snellen lines in 8 cases (61.5%), and there was no loss in CDVA. All procedures were completed without intraoperative or postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS This combined procedure was effective and safe for the treatment of high-level or mixed astigmatism.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the incidence and etiology of required retreatment after multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and to evaluate the methods and clinical outcomes of retreatment. Patients and methods A retrospective chart review of 416 eyes of 209 patients from one site that underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery with multifocal IOL implantation. Biometry, the IOL, and refractive data were recorded after the original implantation, with the same data recorded after retreatment. Comments related to vision were obtained both before and after retreatment for retreated patients. Results The multifocal retreatment rate was 10.8% (45/416 eyes). The eyes that required retreatment had significantly higher residual refractive astigmatism compared with those who did not require retreatment (1.21±0.51 D vs 0.51±0.39 D, P<0.01). The retreatment rate for the two most commonly implanted primary IOLs, blended bifocal (10.5%, 16/152) and bilateral trifocal (6.9%, 14/202) IOLs, was not statistically significantly different (P=0.12). In those requiring retreatment, refractive-related complaints were most common. Retreatment with refractive corneal surgery, in 11% of the eyes, and piggyback IOLs, in 89% of the eyes, was similarly successful, improving patient complaints 78% of the time. Conclusion Complaints related to ametropia were the main reasons for retreatment. Residual astigmatism appears to be an important determinant of retreatment rate after multifocal IOL implantation. Retreatment can improve symptoms for a high percentage of patients; a piggyback IOL is a viable retreatment option.

Abstract
AIM To compare the agreement of anterior chamber depth (ACD) and central vault measurements obtained by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) of post surgical high myopic eyes with posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (Visian ICL; STAAR Surgical) implantation. METHODS Fifty-two phakic eyes of 28 high myopic patients who underwent implantable Collamer lens (ICL) surgery for the correction of high myopia were studied. The postoperative ACD, the distance between the corneal endothelium and the anterior surface of ICL (cornea-ICL) and the central vault were measured with the AS-OCT system and the UBM system. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the Bland-Altman plot were used to evaluate the repeatability and agreement of two devices. RESULTS The mean ACD, cornea-ICL and central vault in the 52 phakic eyes after ICL surgery was 3.19±0.28 mm, 2.47±0.28 mm, 0.50±0.19 mm by AS-OCT and 3.13±0.25 mm, 2.49±0.25 mm, 0.44±0.19 mm by UBM, respectively. Pairwise comparison of ACD and central vault measurements showed significant differences between AS-OCT and UBM (P<0.05). However, no statistically significant difference was found between these imaging techniques in cornea-ICL (P>0.05). The Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between AS-OCT and UBM measurements for ACD, cornea-ICL and vault was 0.88, 0.80 and 0.89, respectively (P<0.001). The ICC was 0.89-0.94 for the measurements of AS-OCT and UBM. Bland-Altman analysis showed the 95% limits of agreement of ACD, cornea-ICL, central vault measurements between these two devices were -0.20 to 0.32 mm, -0.36 to 0.32 mm and -0.12 to 0.24 mm, respectively. CONCLUSION Central ACD and vault measurements using AS-OCT demonstrated a slight significantly higher value than using UBM in phakic eyes after ICL surgery. These two devices should not be used interchangeably for measurements of central ACD and vault in patients after phakic intraocular lens implantation.

Abstract
Myopic astigmatism is a prevalent condition that can be treated with spectacles, contact lenses, or laser refractive surgery. However, these treatment options have functional limitations at higher levels of refractive error. The toric implantable collamer lens is designed to treat a broad range of refractive error, generally up to -18 diopters with +1 to +6 diopters of astigmatism. Approval for a more limited treatment range of up to 15 diopters of myopia with +1 to +4 diopters of astigmatism is being sought in the US, where this device has not yet received marketing approval. Surgical correction of high-myopic astigmatism can be life-altering and allow people to participate in activities that were not previously feasible because of visual limitations. The toric implantable collamer lens is implanted behind the iris and in front of the natural crystalline lens. With earlier lens designs, it was necessary to create an iridectomy or iridotomy to prevent pupillary block. The newest toric implantable collamer lens model has a small central hole that is not visually noticeable. This eliminates the need to create a hole in the iris, thereby enhancing the safety of the procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate a clinical procedure based on trial rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lenses fitting to assess the real pre-operative visual acuity (VA) of highly myopic eyes undergoing surgery with an implantable collamer lens. METHODS Highly myopic eyes with a spectacle visual acuity (SVA) of 0.2 logMAR (6/9.6 Snellen) or worse were enrolled. A trial RGP contact lens with high dioptric power was fitted before collamer lens implantation. The trial contact lens residual refractive error was corrected by spectacle over-refraction to estimate contact lens VA (CLVA). The three-month post-operative uncorrected vision and visual acuities were also measured. The safety and efficacy indices of collamer lens implantation were calculated based on pre-operative SVA and CLVA, respectively. RESULTS The study enrolled 42 patients with 68 highly myopic eyes with a mean pre-operative spherical equivalent of -16.40 ± 4.43 D. The mean pre-operative SVA was 0.38 ± 0.19 logMAR. Pre-operative trial RGP contact lens fitting resulted in a significant improvement of VA (2.02 ± 1.05 lines), which was statistically insignificantly different from the VA with the implantable collamer lens (2.07 ± 0.8 lines). The safety index of collamer lens implantation was 1.70 ± 0.38 in reference to the pre-operative SVA but significantly decreased to 1.02 ± 0.17 in reference to CLVA. Similarly, the efficacy index of 1.17 ± 0.48 on SVA decreased to 0.71 ± 0.28 on CLVA. CONCLUSIONS Trial RGP contact lens fitting was found to indicate the potential implantable collamer lens VA more accurately than spectacle refraction. Consideration should be given to the use a trial RGP contact lens as part of the pre-operative work-up prior to collamer lens implantation in order to provide an assessment of the patient's potential post-operative VA.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the factors affecting the long-term regression after posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (Visian ICL; STAAR Surgical) implantation for myopia. DESIGN Retrospective observational case series. METHODS We retrospectively examined 60 eyes of 35 consecutive patients (age, 38.4 ± 9.3 years [mean ± standard deviation]) with myopic refractive errors of -4.00 to -15.25 diopters (D) undergoing ICL implantation. We assessed the amount of myopic regression from 1 month to 6 years after surgery. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to assess the factors affecting the amount of myopic regression. RESULTS The mean myopic regression from 1 month to 6 years after surgery was -0.33 ± 0.71 D (0.75 to -3.00 D). Explanatory variables relevant to the myopic regression were, in order of influence, patient age (partial regression coefficient B = -0.042, P < .0001) and preoperative axial length (B = -0.186, P = .013) (adjusted R(2) = 0.300). No significant correlation was seen with other clinical factors such as sex, preoperative refraction, intraocular pressure, white-to-white distance, anterior chamber depth, central corneal thickness, or mean keratometric readings. CONCLUSIONS Although the great majority of the variance remains unexplained, eyes of older patients and eyes with longer axial length are more predisposed to show greater myopic regression after ICL implantation. These results indicate that not only patient age but also axial length may play some role in predicting the long-term refractive outcomes of this surgical procedure.

Abstract
Keratoconus is a progressive non-inflammatory thinning of the cornea that induces myopia and irregular astigmatism and decreases the quality of vision due to monocular diplopia, halos, or ghost images. Keratoconus patients unfit for corneal procedures and intolerant to refractive correction by spectacles or contact lenses have been implanted toric posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses (PC pIOLs) alone or combined with other surgical procedures to correct the refractive errors associated with keratoconus as an off label procedure with special informed consent from the patients. Several reports attest to the safety and efficacy of the procedure, though the associated corneal higher order aberrations would have an impact on the final visual quality.
