The implantation of the Visian implantable collamer lens (ICL; STAAR Surgical, Monrovia, California, USA) is a safe, effective, and predictable surgical technique that is widely used for correcting refractive errors. There is increasing public interest in vision correction surgery with recent FDA approval of Phacic Intraocular Collamer Lens with KS-aquaPORT with patients turning to their eye care professionals for expert guidance. Phacic lens-based refractive surgery is estimated to comprise 30-40% of refractive surgery in 5-8 years. Despite increased worldwide adaptation, a number of challenges, risks and co-morbidities have historically presented in outliers, including uveitis, iridotomy glare, endothelial cell loss, ICL toric lens rotation, lens exchange risk, pupil block, glaucoma, pigment dispersion and anterior sub-capsular cataract.
Recent advancements in imaging technology and IOL design advancements have led to the development of several novel predictive strategies designed to significantly reduce or eliminate ICL associated comorbidity. Specifically 1) the EVO+ (V5 model)—the latest model employing a central hole (also known as the KS-aquaPORT)—as well as advancements in swept source Very-High Frequency Ultrasound (VHF-US) allowing for gains in predictability in ICL sizing, vault, and refractive accuracy—making way for ICL as a safe and effective long-term option for vision restoration, and widespread public adoption in the next 5 years.
