Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) parameters in patients with moderate myopia and healthy individuals retrospectively. METHODS A total of 80 male individuals aged 18-20 years were included in the study with 40 moderate myopic and 40 healthy persons. All participants underwent detailed ocular examination including refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), visual acuity, biomicroscopy, OCTA measurement and optic biometry measurement. Retinal, retinal nerve fiber layer and choroidal layer thicknesses were evaluated in µm with the help of the software available in the OCTA device. RESULTS The mean axial length (24.32 ± 0.53 mm) was statistically significantly higher in the moderate myopic group (24.32 mm) compared to the healthy group (23.33 ± 0.61 mm) (p < 0.001). Spherical equivalent (SE) was found as -3.79 ± 0.91 D in the moderate myopic group and -0.22 ± 0.32 D in the healthy group (p < 0.05). The mean superficial foveal mean density (FovSupMVD) and the mean deep foveal mean density (FovDepMVD) were statistically significantly lower in the moderate myopic group than in the healthy group (both, p < 0.001). The mean retinal temporal thickness (RTt) was statistically significantly lower in the moderate myopic group (p = 0.017). There was a mild negative correlation between axial length and FovSupMVD, FovDepMVD in myopes. In axial length ROC analysis, the cutoff value for moderate myopes was found to be 24.15 mm. Mean superficial foveal mean density (FovSupMVD) and mean deep foveal mean density (FovDepMVD), mean retinal temporal thickness (RTt) were significantly lower in the group above 24.15 mm axial length compared to the group below 24.15 mm axial length (all three, p < 0.001). Foveal avascular zone was significantly higher in the group above 24.15 mm axial length (p = 0.016) CONCLUSION: The results of our study indicate that the mean axial length and spherical equivalent were significantly higher, while retinal temporal thickness, the mean superficial foveal mean density and the mean deep foveal mean density were significantly lower in patients with myopia up to -6.0 D compared to the healthy individuals.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the early corneal remodeling and its influencing factors after Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for moderate and high myopia. METHODS This was a retrospective study. Pre- and post-operative (1 week and 1, 3, 6 months) corneal volume (CV), mean keratometry (Km), and corneal thickness (CT) were measured by Scheimpflug tomography. CT at the central, thinnest point, and on concentric circles of 2, 4, and 6 mm diameter was recorded to assess corneal thickness spatial profile (CTSP) and percentage of thickness increase (PTI) in the moderate and high myopia groups, and to explore possible influencing factors. RESULTS After SMILE, the peripheral CT decreased in the moderate myopia group and central corneal thickness (CCT) increased in the high myopia group at 1 month compared to 1 week (all P < 0.05). The CV, Km and CT were significantly increased at 3 months compared to 1 month (all P < 0.05), but there was no significant change at 6 months compared to 3 months for both groups (all P > 0.05). Patients with high myopia showed greater corneal thickness changes (△CT) and higher PTI than moderate myopia (all P < 0.05). Regression analysis revealed that in addition to refraction, peripheral PTI was negatively correlated with CCT in the moderate myopia group (4 mm: β = -0.023, P = 0.001; 6 mm: β = -0.050, P < 0.001), as well as in the high myopia group (4 mm: β = -0.038, P < 0.001; 6 mm: β = -0.094, P < 0.001). Moreover, peripheral PTI in the moderate myopia group was negatively correlated with age (4 mm: β = -0.071, P = 0.003; 6 mm: β = -0.162, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS After SMILE, the CV, Km, and CTSP showed dynamic changes in the early stage, which stabilized after 3 months. Compared to the moderate myopia group, the high myopia group experienced slower corneal stabilization. The change in PTI at 6 months after SMILE may be related to higher preoperative refraction, thinner CCT and younger age.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare 1-year visual outcomes after implantable collamer lens V4c (EVO-ICL) implantation and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for moderate myopia. METHODS In this retrospective study, 67 eyes of 39 patients with a preoperative manifest refraction spherical equivalent between - 3.00 and - 6.00 diopters (D) were selected from a database of SMILE and ICL implantation procedures performed from April 2018 to December 2018. Thirty-two eyes of 20 patients underwent EVO-ICL implantation, and 35 eyes of 19 patients underwent SMILE. At the routine 1-year follow-up appointment, all selected patients were examined for higher-order ocular aberrations, retinal image quality, and a quality of vision (QoV) questionnaire. This data was then analyzed. RESULTS No complications were observed. Uncorrected and corrected visual acuities at 1 year after surgery were - 0.13 ± 0.07 and - 0.15 ± 0.06 logMAR in the SMILE group, and - 0.10 ± 0.07 and - 0.16 ± 0.05 logMAR in the ICL group. Twenty-nine eyes (90.6%) which underwent ICL implantation and 34 eyes (97.1%) which underwent SMILE were within ± 0.5 D of the attempted spherical equivalent (P = 0.49). Changes in coma after ICL were significantly less than after SMILE (P = 0.002). The leading complaints after ICL and SMILE were halos (84.4%) and blurred vision (65.7%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Both SMILE and ICL implantation provided good safety, efficacy, and predictability in correcting moderate myopia. The subjective visual complaints consisted mainly of halos after ICL and starbursts and blurred vision after SMILE.

Abstract
Background The early visual qualities of patients with moderate myopia were evaluated after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) using different optical zones. Methods In this retrospective case study, 27 cases (51 eyes) were selected, including 10 cases in Group A (19 eyes), 6.6–6.8 mm in the optical zone, 10 cases in Group B (19 eyes), 6.4–6.5 mm in the optical zone, and 7 cases in Group C (13 eyes),6.1–6.3 mm in the optical zone. The following items were examined preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively: uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical, cylinder, central corneal thickness (CCT), corneal mean curvature (CMC), total ocular aberrations (TA), total low order aberrations (tLOAs), defocus, astigmatism and total high order aberrations (tHOAs), spherical, coma, trefoil, modulation transfer function (MTF), MTFcutoff, SR, objective scatter index (OSI), point scatter function at 50 and 10% (PSF50%, PSF10%), and contrast visual acuity of 100, 20, and 9% (VA100%, VA20%, and VA9%). We compared the three groups by Kruskal-Wallis test. Wilcoxon signed ranks test was used for each group before and 1 month after surgeries. P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results There was no significant difference in UCVA, BCVA, CCT, cylinder, and CMC in three groups preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively (P> 0.05). Comparison of the aberrations of the three groups showed statistically significant difference only in TA, tLOA, defocus, astigmatism and SA preoperatively, and trefoil 1 month postoperatively(P< 0.05). The postoperative TA, tLOAs, defocus, astigmatism and trefoil of the three groups were lower than those before surgeries (P< 0.05). The postoperative tHOAs of Group B and C was lower than those before surgeries (P< 0.05). The MTF results showed that before surgeries, there were significant differences in three groups (P< 0.05) in spatial frequencies 5~15 cycles per degree (cpd), and no differences in 20~30 cpd(P> 0.05), while no difference were observed in all spatial frequencies postoperatively (P> 0.05). Comparing the preoperative and postoperative MTF values for each group, the results showed that there was a significant difference in Group C at 5~20 cpd after surgeries(P< 0.05). There was no significant difference in MTFcutoff, SR, OSI, PSF50%, PSF10%, VA100%, VA20%, and VA9% in the three groups preoperatively (P> 0.05). One month after surgeries, higher VA9% values were measured for Group C compared to Group A and B (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in each group before and after surgeries (P> 0.05). Conclusion SMILE could improve the visual qualities of patients with moderate myopia. Reducing the surgical optical zone will only affect night vision slightly.
