Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOL) of different designs and materials have been used effectively instead of corneal refractive surgery in certain situations. The pIOL exhibits a number of advantages over corneal techniques as it is suitable for high myopes, with lower production of aberrations, and superior contrast sensitivity. Keeping the accommodation is its definite lead over refractive lens exchange. The Visian implantable collamer lens (ICL; Staar Surgical, Monrovia, CA), a posterior chamber pIOL, has been stated to be useful for the correction of high myopia. Nevertheless, as an intraocular procedure, it is associated with a risk of complications as probable injury to anterior segment, retinal detachment and endophthalmitis. The Implantable Phakic Contact Lens (IPCL V2, Caregroup Sight Solutions, India) has been developed as an alternative for the ICL, at a noticeable financial advantage. Furthermore, the highestmyopic correction which is instantly accessible with ICL is -18.0 D. Meanwhile, IPCL can provide correction higher degrees up to -30.0 D. Former researches have been made to assess the safety and efficiency of ICL implantation, to evaluate various devices for anterior segment imaging postoperatively and to identify changes in anterior segment after surgery. A recent study determined the safety of the IPCL over a minimum follow-up period of one year. In this work the investigators aimed to compare the refractive results and the adverse effects of the IPCL and the ICL in treatment of myopia in adults.
Refractive surgery for correction of myopia is very common nowadays. However, various refractive techniques may be associated with increase in the IOP, especially during flap creation. It is assumed that marked intraoperative IOP increase lead to macular and optic disc head circulation compromise. The purpose of this study is to assess the change of macular and papillary perfusion, using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging of the macula and optic disc of myopic patients before and after various refractive surgery methods.
Increasing number of myopic children and significant complications of high myopia enhance the necessity of effective control strategy. Instillations of low-dose atropine have been shown to reduce myopia progression in Asian populations but its effect in non-Asian populations is still unclear. This open prospective study with historical control is designed to investigate if 0.01% atropine can reduce myopia progression in Russian children, taking into account a change of difference between manifest and cycloplegic refraction, as well as, myopia progression rate at the time of recruitment.
This study intends to establish a registry cohort to enroll patients with high myopia to study the natural course of myopic optic neuropathy in Chinese adult population.
Currently, whether and when intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering medication should be used in glaucoma suspects with high myopia (HM) is still a dilemma. Randomized trials are required to evaluate whether IOP lowering influences the incidence of glaucoma suspect progression in HM eyes.
This is a prospective study to validate an algorithm for predicting the effect of orthokeratology on myopia progression in children from 8 hospitals in China.
Compared to laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) is associated with more discomfort and requires more downtime. However, it is oftentimes considered the preferred method of refractive surgery for patients with dry eye syndrome, high refractive errors, thin corneas, or those with more active lifestyles who may be more prone to dislodging their LASIK flaps. We hypothesize that the use of bandage contact lenses soaked in proparacaine will decrease pain levels compared to solely the use of bandage contact lenses after PRK.
This is a prospective study to validate a predictive algorithm for identifying fast progressing myopes.
Prevalence of myopia and its complications has been increasing over the past decades, especially among children and adolescents. It reaches record levels in Asia: nearly 80% of the population in some regions in 2012 where the investigators speak in terms of epidemic. ATROPINE 0.01% eyedrops one drop per day is today an evolutive myopia treatment, whose results are promising. The investigators use this eye drops in our clinical practice at hospital of Saint-Etienne since 2017. Few clinical data have been published so far concerning the French population. The investigators would like to build a database so that the investigators can publish our results and share our experience.
