INTRAOCULAR CONTACT LENS HKMA Structured CME Program John Chang, MD Director of Guy Hugh Chan Refractive Surgery Centre Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital 9 August 2007
LASIK is not the best option for every patient Dioptre removal/optical zone & quality of vision trade-off Large pupils Dry eyes Steep / flat corneas « Funny corneas » / Keratoconus Thin corneas We all have those patients !
Phakic IOLs Advantages Preserves Corneal topography. No induced aberrations => Better quality of vision High predictability. Stable refractive outcome. Safe in eyes with suspicious corneas. Removable Minimal capital expenses.
Introduction Posterior Chamber Sulcus Fixated Lens Version 4 Myopia -3.00 D to > -20.00 D Hyperopia +3.00 D to +17.00 D
Loading the ICL The ICL is marked to ensure proper orientation in the eye as it unfolds Lower left Leading right Alignment Marks
Clear Corneal Incision Temporal, clear corneal incision orients best to iris plane
Video - ICL Injection
ICL Positioning Use the paracentisis
Video: ICL Positioning Rotate using the edge of the lens or on the haptic “body” OK to use footplates
73 Eyes Since 6th May 2002 Age : 23 to 47 Mean age : 34.33 ± 6.37 yrs Male : 12 Female : 36

Follow up 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month, 6 month, and 1 year and beyond Dilated slit lamp & fundus exam (DFE) for all eyes at 6 months Range: 2 weeks to 43.8 months Mean: 15.9 months
Predictability of Refraction Planned Refraction Within ± 0.50 D : 45 (61.6 %) Within ± 1.00 D : 59 (80.8 %)

Lost 1 line Age: 39 M Pre-op MRSE: -10 D 20/20 Post-op MRSE: +0.13 D 20/25 Follow up: 1 month Patient complaint of difficulty with reading and elected to have ICL removed despite near VA J2 after 1 month.
Lost 1 line Age: 39 F Pre-op MRSE: -13.88 D 20/15 Post-op MRSE: -0.50 D 20/20 Follow up: 14.9 months Post-op BCVA varied between follow up visits from 20/15 to 20/20. No other complication was noted.
Complications Out of 73 eyes: 1 (1.4 %) ICL size too small – observe 1 (1.4 %) brow ache for 2 months 1 (1.4 %) ICL removed after 1 month ( pt didn’t like it) 39 year old male, c/o near vision problem MRSE at 1 month: +0.13 D 1 (1.4 %) overcorrect by +1.5 D (VD not at 12mm)
Complications 1 eyes (1.4 %) complained of seeing extra light from P.I. 17 eyes (23.3 %) developed transient IOP rise within 2 month post op; range 23 to 30 mmHg; all controlled by timolol; all resolved by 1 month; only 3 eyes in 2006, all other before 2005
Complications 2 eyes (2.7 %) developed ASC Mean pre-op MSE -9.28 D MSE at last visit -3.00 D 20/20 -1.25 20/20 UCVA 20/150 20/25 ACD 3.2 3.18 WTW 11.5 11 Lens type ICM125V4 ICM115V4 Comment onset at 20 month onset 13 days, visually significant at 18 months
Early result: Toric ICL 25 eyes (since June 2004) Age range: 23 to 44 Mean age: 32.0 ± 6.8 yrs M : F 4 : 14 Mean follow up: 7.5 ± 4.4 months (range 1.4 to 18.8 months)
Early result: Toric ICL Mean ICL power: Sphere -18.44 ± 3.22 D Cylinder +3.68 ± 1.20 D Pre-op Post-op Mean sphere -13.85 ± 3.20 D -0.20 ± 0.51 D Mean cylinder +2.95 ± 1.07 D +0.64 ± 0.47 D Mean MSE -12.36 ± 3.06 D +0.03 ± 0.34 D
Early result: Toric ICL
Early result: Toric ICL Cumulative post-op BCVA and UCVA
Advantages ICL vs LASIK No / Minimal night vision problems Stability /Faster recovery. Correct much higher ranges of myopia (-3.0 D to -20.0 D) Also correct hyperopia (+3.0 D to +17.0 D) Reversible No ectasia
Advantages ICL vs LASIK 2 patients had ICL in one eye (-19 D, -17 D) and LASIK in the other eye(-14 D, -13 D) Higher myopia in the eyes with ICL Both patients report better quality vision with ICL despite the higher myopia Stability – no initial overcorrection.
Advantages ICL vs ACIOL No endothelial cell loss, no AC reaction Small self-sealing incision -No/less induced astigmatism No need to pre-cut flap in bioptics Can correct astigmatism at the same time -(LRI or Toric ICL)

Disadvantages Clinically significant ASC 1.3%* Sizing can be difficult, Orbscan not always reliable Glaucoma? Pigment dispersion? Expensive 2 Procedures: Laser P.I. First (uncomfortable), then lens implantation *5 year follow up US FDA MICL Clinical Trial – in press
Conclusion ICL and Toric ICL results very encouraging Transient IOP rise 2° to Occucoat? Accuracy as good / better than LASIK for high myopia Much better immediate and long term stability than Lasik. Technically not difficult (Avg surgery time 25 mins) No / Minimal night vision problems Short learning curve –easier than Phaco
What if one develops a cataract extraction leads to immediate presbyopia?
