Kang, Dong Jun Kang, Eung Kweon Kim, Kyoung Yul Seo, Ikhyun Jun & Tae-im Kim BMC Ophthalmology 21, Article number: 397 (2021) | Cite this article To investigate the surgical outcomes of implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in eyes with residual myopia after primary laser vision correction (LVC) surgeries. This study included patients who underwent ICL implantation and had a history of LVC surgery, including photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Visual acuity and refractive error were assessed pre and 3-months postoperatively and the efficacy and safety indices calculated accordingly. A total of 30 eyes of 17 patients were included in this study. At 3 months, the mean logMAR uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and spherical equivalent were - 0.03 ± 0.11 (include logMAR), - 0.04 ± 0.09 (include logMAR),

3-month surgical outcomes of Implantable Collamer Lens implantation for myopic regression after laser vision correction surgeries: a retrospective case series
Abstract
Background
Methods
Results
ICL implantation showed safe, effective, and predictable postoperative outcomes in eyes with myopic regression.
In addition, there was no significantly different result based on the type of previous LVC surgery, including PRK and LASIK. ICL implantation can be considered as an appropriate option to treat myopic regression after LVC surgery.
