Patients are classified into 2 groups considering the incision type: cornea group with patients undergone clear corneal incision; sclera group with patients undergone sclera tunnel incision. All patients with postoperative astigmatism of under 1 diopter (D) were included to minimize the effect of residual astigmatism on postoperative HOAs. Visual acuity, special equivalents, astigmatism, predictability (±1 D from target refraction), HOAs (coma, trefoil, spherical aberration), and corneal endothelial counts were analyzed preoperatively and 6mo postoperatively.RESULTS: At the postoperative 6mo, all patients of both groups achieved uncorrected visual acuity of 16/20 or better, and significantly decreased the spherical equivalents compared with preoperative values. The predictability of refractive correction was 96% in the former, and 94% in the latter. Unlike the sclera group, preoperative astigmatism decreased significantly in cornea group at postoperative 6mo. The HOAs increased significantly at postoperative 6mo compared to the preoperative values in both groups, and the root mean square (RMS) total and trefoil wavefront aberration of cornea group were significantly higher than those of sclera group.CONCLUSION: Although corneal incision significantly reduces preexisting astigmatism, the postoperative 6mo of total RMS and trefoil aberration change may deteriorate the visual quality after Artisan PIOL implantation.展开更多

Methods:.A total of 17 aphakic patients were admitted between April 2009 and April 2010 to the ophthalmologic department of Xiamen Eye Centre..All eyes had previously received lens removal and vitrectomy. After the retina stabilized and corrected visual acuity improved,.the iris was sutured. The Artisan IOL was fixated onto the iris surface..Patients were followed-up at one day, one week,.one month and three months postoperatively..The following outcomes were assessed: symptoms of photophobia and glare, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), endothelial cell density (ECD). The diameter of pupil and the anterior chamber depth (ACD) were measured by the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT). Results:.Artisan IOLs were successfully implanted in all aphakic eyes. Postoperatively, improvement was observed in photophobia and glare symptoms..UCVA was enhanced in all patients.(six eyes had better UCVA postoperatively than BCVA preoperatively)..However,.there were no significant changes in IOP. Mean loss of ECD was 336.06/mm2. Mean postoperative pupil diameter was 3.67±0.41 mm, compared with 5.67±0.57 mm preoperatively(P<0.05). Mean ACD was reduced by 0.88 mm.(3.38±0.33 mm preoperatively vs 2.50±0.35 mm postoperatively, P<0.05). Conclusion:.Surgery that combined coreoplasty and Artisan IOL implantation was a safe and effective treatment for correcting aphakia and mydriasis in post-traumatic vitrectomized eyes.展开更多
