Abstract Details

Purpose:

To analyze the visual outcomes and complications of the Medennium posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation (MPL) in patients with high myopia.

Setting:

Blue Eye” Centro di Chirurgia Oculare, Milano, Italy, “International Center for Ophthalmology”, Moscow, Russia

Methods:

We reviewed 248 myopic eyes undergoing MPL implantation in which refractive errors ranged from -4.0 to -32.0 diopters (D). The mean follow-up period was 65.34±10.44 months. Autorefractometry, uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), optical biometry, intraocular pressure (IOP), OCT Visante, corneal endothelial cell (CEC) loss were measured.

Results:

The mean SE changed from -12.25±11.41D to -1.23±0.64. The UCVA improved from 1.63±0.25 to 0.22±0.25. BCVA changed from 0.42±0.45 to 0.21±0.16. The mean distance between Crystalline lens and MPL 322,44±91 µm. No statistically CEC loss was induced by the lens implantation. No induced cataract, glaucoma, or inflammation were observed

Conclusions:

The visual outcomes of the MPL implantation show efficacy, predictability and stability of results even in eyes with high myopia.
