PURPOSE: To evaluate the outcome and safety of implantable collamer lens (ICL; (Visian, STAAR Surgical, Monrovia, CA, USA) in mild to advance keratoconus patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism.
METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated all patients who underwent ICL implantation for the management of keratoconus at a tertiary care eye hospital from January 2012 to January 2018. The mean duration of follow-up was 15.3 months (range, 3.13 to 38.97 months). Data were collected on preoperative and postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), refraction was compared, and adverse effects were evaluated.
RESULTS: Thirty-two eyes (32 patients) were evaluated. The median CDVA was 20/30 preoperatively and 20/20 at last follow-up. The median UDVA was 20/25 at last follow-up. Thirteen patients (40.6%) had 20/20 UDVA in comparison to none at baseline. The median spherical equivalent in diopters (D) was -7.875 D (-4.125 to -10.0 D) preoperatively and decreased to -0.3125 D at last follow-up. The median manifest refractive cylinder was 3.00 D (2.25 to 5.25 D) preoperatively and decreased to 1.125 D postoperatively. Cylinder axis rotation of 10° or greater occurred in 3 eyes (9.375%) and required repositioning of the ICL. One patient (3%) developed nonvisually significant anterior subcapsular cataract. One ICL (3.125%) had to be explanted due to residual refractive error and unsatisfactory vision.
CONCLUSION: ICLs are a suitable refractive option for the correction of refractive error associated with stable, nonprogressive keratoconus even in advance cases. However, the risk of ICL rotation and subsequent repositioning remain. Careful patient selection is necessary for achieving good outcomes and mitigating intraoperative and postoperative complications.
