was performed in 9 (5.33%) eyes and haptic repositioning was performed in 3 (1.78%) eyes. Mild decentration of the lens could be appreciated by slit-lamp microscopy in 9 (5.33%) eyes. Night vision disturbances such as halos or glare were a significant complaint in 11.24% of eyes (19) at 1 month, but this frequency decreased to 4.73% of eyes (8) at 3 months post-operatively.
At 12 months post-operatively, no severe complications were present. The percentage of cases with pupil ovalisation was similar to that at 3 months postoperatively. Haptic exchange was performed through the sub-2.5-mm incisions in all cases that required exchange. Lens decentration was apparent in 11 (6.51%) eyes at 12 months post-operatively. Halos and glare were disturbing phenomena in 2 (1.18%) eyes. No retinal complications were noted.
5.4.1.4 Visian Implantable Collamer Lens
The Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL; Staar® Surgical Company, USA) is a one-piece foldable phakic intraocular lens which is implanted in the posterior chamber, just anterior to the natural crystalline lens. The main advantages of this PIOL is that it can be inserted through a sub-3 mm corneal or limbal incision and the position of the PIOL ensures a greater distance form the PIOL to the corneal endothelium, thereby reducing the risk of long-term endothelial cell loss [20]. Toric models of this PIOL are also available.
Lens Design
The Visian ICL is a one-piece PIOL which is made from Collamer, a proprietary, biocompatible, UV-absorbing, hydrophilic porcine collagen/Polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) copolymer. The biological composition of the Visian ICL has excellent biocompatibility with the eye. The Visian ICL incorporates a forward vault into its plate-haptic design with a central convex/ concave optical zone and is designed to have minimal contact with the natural crystalline lens.
The optic and the overall diameters of the Visian ICL vary with refractive power, ranging from 4.9 mm (optic)/12.1 mm (overall) to 5.8 mm (optic)/13.7 mm (overall). The Visian ICL is able to correct myopia of −3.0 D to −20.0 D (US approval).
The toric version of the Visian ICL (TICL) is available and is currently undergoing trials [57]. The TICL is identical (identical haptic design) to the current V4 Staar Visian ICL except that it has an anterior toric surface. The TICLs are manufactured to minimise rotation and require the refractive surgeon to rotate the ICL no more than 22.5° from the horizontal meridian.
Surgical Technique
Pre-Operative Preparation
It is recommended that all patients undergoing ICL implantation should have had a Visante AS-OCT scan of the eyes. Pre-operative endothelial cell counts are also essential. Eyes undergoing the ICL implantation should fulfil the following criteria:
1.Mean endothelial cell density of more than 2,500 cell/cm2
2.Anterior chamber depth of more than 3.0 mm
In our centre, ICL implantation is performed under topical anaesthesia. Two drops of preservative-free lidocaine 2% is used. In the case of TICL implantation, corneal marking of the horizontal axis is performed at the slit-lamp while the patient is sitting upright.
Operative Procedure
A 1-mm paracentesis is performed inferiorly corresponding to the steepest meridian. Then, a 3.0-mm corneal incision is made with a carbon knife (Accutome, Malvern, PA, USA). Visthesia (Carl Zeiss Meditec), a combination of Sodium Hyaluronate and Lidocaine, is subsequently injected in the anterior chamber followed by 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (Celoftal, Alcon Cusi, Barcelona, Spain). A peripheral iridotomy is then performed in the superior quadrant using a surgical vitrectomy cutter. Subsequently, the pupil is dilated using intracameral mydriasis using 1 mL of a vial containing (G. cyclopentolate1% 1 mL, G. Phenylephrine 10% 1.5 mL, lignocaine 2% 5 mL, solution BSS, C.S.P 10 mL, each vial contains 2 mL).
The ICL is loaded into the injector and injected into the eye in a smooth motion and allowed to slowly unfold. The footplates of the ICL are tucked under the iris using the Vukich ICL manipulator (ASICO LLC,
