Subjects 21 through 45 years of age with manifest refraction spherical equivalent ranging from â 3.00 D to â 6.00 D and astigmatism up to 4.00 D underwent implantation of EVO or EVO+ Sphere or Toric ICLs. Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuities, manifest refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), endothelial cell density, and adverse events were evaluated over 6 months.Results: This report includes a retrospective review of 200 eyes of 114 subjects with mean age 35.1 ± 5.1 years that completed the 6-month visit. Mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) measured â 4.61 ± 0.87 D (range: â 3.00 to â 6.00 D). At 6 months, mean SE was â 0.085 ± 0.26 D, with 91.5% within ± 0.50 D of target and 100.0% within ± 1.00 D of target. Mean postoperative UDVA and CDVA were â 0.065 ± 0.08 logMAR and â 0.14 ± 0.07 logMAR, respectively. About 98.0% of eyes maintained or gained lines of CDVA, and no eye lost more than 1 line CDVA. Efficacy and safety indices were 1.03 and 1.21, respectively. No eye experienced pupillary block, required preoperative or postoperative peripheral iridotomy or iridectomy, developed anterior subcapsular cataract or had elevated IOP due to angle narrowing or pigment dispersion. Mean endothelial cell density declined by 2.2%.Conclusion: EVO ICL lenses demonstrated accuracy, predictability and stability of refractive correction with achievement of high levels of UDVA and an excellent safety profile for patients with moderate myopia with or without astigmatism.Keywords: phakic refractive lens, moderate myopia, astigmatism, implantable collamer lens |
