Abstract Details

Purpose:

To show no changes in axial length measurements after myopic Visian ICL implantation

Setting:

Instituto de Microcirugķa Ocular (IMO). C/ Josep Maria Lladó, 3. 08035 Barcelona. Spain

Methods:

We have performed preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively an axial length measurement using the Iolmaster v.5 version in 25 patients (50 eyes) wearing Visian ICL phakic lenses

Results:

The mean change in axial length alter myopic Visian ICLimplantation is not stadisticaly significant in a grup of patients with miopķa rnaging from -4 to -13 diopters.

Conclusions:

There is no need of special measurements for achieving the correct axial length measurement after myopic Visan ICL implantation
