Abstract
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the changes of anterior chamber (AC) of the eye after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in high myopia by using Pentacam.
METHODS: A prospective study included 34 high myopic patients (34 eyes). All patients were treated with VISIAN implantable collamer lens (ICL) (Staar Surgical Co) implantation. Pentacam (Oculus) was done for all cases preoperatively, one month, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively. AC angle (ACA), AC volume (ACV), central AC depth (CACD), ICL vault, central corneal thickness (CCT), pupil diameter (PD), K readings and intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded.
RESULTS: Our study included 34 eyes of 34 patients, 20 females (59%) and 14 males (41%). Mean ACA was 36.93 ±4.75° preoperatively, 25.17 ±5.64° and 25.23 ±6.05° 1 and 3 months postoperatively (P
