“…16 A foldable iris-fixated pIOL was recently developed under the name Artiflex toric (Ophtec BV). Differences in optical quality between the Artisan and Artiflex pIOLs have been reported 17,18 ; however, the contrast sensitivity and visual acuity results were similar with both pIOL models. 19 Some reports show good efficacy and predictability of the Artiflex pIOL design for the correction of spherical refractive errors [20][21][22][23][24][25] and that it provides faster visual recovery than the Artisan pIOL.…”

“…This finding has been attributed to the negative aspheric profile of the Artiflex lens that has also been confirmed in laboratory analysis. 23 Moreover, lack of coma T changes in the Artiflex group as compared with preoperation indicated more appropriate centration.…”

Purpose To compare the visual outcomes between PRK-MMC and phakic IOL in patients with more than 8 diopter (D) of myopia. Methods This comparative study was performed on 23 eyes under treatment with Artiflex (group A) and 23 eyes under treatment with PRK-MMC (group B). Artiflex phakic IOL (Ophtec BV) was used in group A, and the VISX STAR S4 Excimer Laser (Abbott) was used for PRK-MMC in group B. Results The safety index was 1.11 ± 0.23 and 1.05 ± 0.25 (P ¼ 0.100) and the efficacy index was 1.02 ± 0.11 and 0.98 ± 0.10 (P ¼ 0.266) in group A and B, respectively. At 1 year after surgery, the manifest refraction spherical equivalent was À 0.17±1.18 and À 0.25±0.18 D in group A and B, respectively (P ¼ 0.471). Mesopic CS showed no significant difference between the two groups in any spatial frequency. Total coma was 0.24 ± 0.17 and 0.67 ± 0.40 mm (Po0.001), spherical aberration was À 0.11±0.11 and 0.41±0.18 mm (Po0.001), and RMS HOA T was 0.50±0.20 and 0.96±0.45 mm (Po0.001) in group A and B, respectively. Conclusion Phakic IOL implantation was better than PRK-MMC in the correction of high myopia in terms of visual quality, but the two methods had no difference with regard to visual acuity. Therefore, PRK-MMC can be used when the anterior chamber depth is a limiting factor in the implantation of phakic IOLs.

“…Studies of HOAs after pediatric pIOL implantation should be included in future trials because there have been reports of differences in HOA induction after pIOL implantation in the adult population. 37,38 We understand this may not be feasible in many circumstances. Future clinical trials comparing RLE and AC pIOL implantation would be valuable in assessing the risks and benefits of the 2 procedures in the surgical management of high pediatric anisometropic ametropia.…”
