TLDR
The most significant long-term complication after ICL implantation is the formation of opacifications of the crystalline lens with the risk of the necessity of subsequent cataract surgery (10.7%).About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Eight-year follow-up of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation for moderate to high myopia
TL;DR: ICL implantation was overall good in measures of safety, efficacy, predictability, and stability for the correction of moderate to high myopia during the 8-year observation period, suggesting its long-term viability as a surgical option for the treatment of such eyes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implantable collamer posterior chamber intraocular lenses: a review of potential complications.
Paulo Rodrigues Fernandes,José Manuel González-Méijome,David Madrid-Costa,Teresa Ferrer-Blasco,Jorge Jorge,Robert Montés-Micó +5 more
TL;DR: The improvements in lens geometry and more accurate nomograms applied to the selection of the lens to be implanted, in addition to the surgeon's learning curve, might be factors in the decreased occurrence of postoperative complications reported currently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phakic intraocular lenses: Part 2: Results and complications
TL;DR: The second part of a review of phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs) addresses results and complications with current pIOL models as discussed by the authors, and the main complications are glare and halos, pupil ovalization, and corneal endothelial cell loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anterior subcapsular opacities and cataracts 5 years after surgery in the visian implantable collamer lens FDA trial.
TL;DR: Almost 6% to 7% of eyes develop anterior subcapsular opacities at 7+ years following ICL implantation but only 1% to 2% progress to clinically significant cataract during the same period, especially very high myopes and older patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term results of implantation of phakic posterior chamber intraocular lenses
Birgit Lackner,Stefan Pieh,Gerald Schmidinger,C. Simader,Carmen Franz,Irene Dejaco-Ruhswurm,Christian Skorpik +6 more
TL;DR: Risk factors for lens opacification after implantation of the model V4 ICL included intraoperative trauma to the crystalline lens and older age, and decreased ECD values throughout the observation period suggests ongoing inflammation as a cause.

Nonparametric Estimation from Incomplete Observations
Edward L. Kaplan,Paul Meier +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the product-limit (PL) estimator was proposed to estimate the proportion of items in the population whose lifetimes would exceed t (in the absence of such losses), without making any assumption about the form of the function P(t).
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser in situ keratomileusis to correct high myopia
TL;DR: LASIK was effective and predictable in the correction of high myopia but was more accurate for myopia up to 12.00 D, and current surgical algorithms must be modified to improve predictability in higher corrections.

Photorefractive keratectomy versus laser in situ keratomileusis for moderate to high myopia: A randomized prospective study
Peter S. Hersh,Stephen F. Brint,Robert K. Maloney,Daniel S. Durrie,Michael Gordon,Marc Michelson,Vance Thompson,Ralph B Berkeley,Oliver D. Schein,Roger F. Steinert +9 more
TL;DR: There is a greater tendency toward undercorrection in LASIK eyes using the specific laser and nomogram in this study, but the scatter in achieved versus attempted correction is similar, suggesting little difference in the accuracy of the two procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phakic anterior chamber lenses for the correction of myopia: a 7-year cumulative analysis of complications in 263 cases.
TL;DR: In this article, angle-supported anterior chamber intraocular lenses (PIOLs) were implanted into phakic eyes for the correction of myopia, and the potential cumulative complications of patients implanted with PIOLs were evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens for myopia of -8 to -19 diopters.
TL;DR: Gains in spectacle-corrected visual acuity were common, and results suggested good refractive stability, and improvements in phakic IOL power calculation formulas are needed to improve the predictability of refractive outcome.
