Phakic intraocular lenses.

Abstract

Because of the potential risks associated with phakic IOL implantation, the current use of these devices is mainly in the treatment of high and extreme myopia which are expected to respond poorly to keratorefractive procedures. Overall, in this setting, the outcomes of phakic IOL implantation have been rather favorable, with significant improvement in uncorrected visual acuity, and tolerable visual symptoms in terms of glare and halo.
