Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2006
Laser in-situ keratomileusis has been tremendously successful in treating patients with mild and moderate ametropias. For patients with high degrees of refractive error, however, phakic intraocular lenses provide superior quality of vision without the risk of corneal ectasia.

Retinal complications of phakic intraocular lenses
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2003High myopia has always been a challenge for refractive correction. Current laser surgical techniques, however, fall short of correcting high refractive errors due to lack of predictability, regression, corneal ectasia, and introduction of high order optical aberration.

Ophthalmology clinics of North America, 2001
Because of the potential risks associated with phakic IOL implantation, the current use of these devices is mainly in the treatment of high and extreme myopia which are expected to respond poorly to keratorefractive procedures. Overall, in this setting, the outcomes of phakic IOL implantation have been rather favorable, with significant improvement in ...

Phakic intraocular lenses: which to choose
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000Phakic intraocular lenses have been increasingly popular with refractive surgeons because of the good refractive results achieved and because there are few serious complications. The purpose of this review is to compare the different types of phakic intraocular lenses, regarding implant selection, surgical technique, refractive outcome, and anatomical ...

Phakic intraocular lenses: Recent advances and innovations
Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología (English Edition), 2020Phakic intraocular lenses (pIOL) are recommended when counselling refractive surgery candidates presenting with high ametropia or ocular surface and/or corneal conditions that contraindicate corneal refractive surgery. This review aims to present the state-of-the-art regarding pIOL models currently available in Europe, addressing their newer ...

Refractive surgical procedures are generally divided into additive procedures with, e. g. implantation of an artificial lens and subtractive procedures with ablation of corneal tissue. In this article the current status of phakic intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for correction of refractive errors is reviewed.

Refractive lens exchange versus phakic intraocular lenses
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2012To review the evidential basis of current practice in refractive lens exchange (RLE) vs. phakic intraocular lens (pIOL).Visual outcomes after pIOLs are better than RLE. With RLE, there still remain risks of retinal detachment, cystoid macular oedema, glare, halos and posterior capsule opacification.

[Toric phakic intraocular lenses].
Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2008After more than 3 years of follow-up, the satisfactory results achieved with the toric iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (IOL) mean we can regard implantation of this lens as a procedure with the potential to provide safe, predictable, effective and stable correction of astigmatic errors, providing patients are carefully selected and receive ...

Phakic Intraocular Lenses in Keratoconus
2013There are several circumstances where phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) might be considered in the management of the keratoconic patient, obviously only in the case of a stable refractive situation, sometimes difficult to be defined in this setting.
