Article Abstract

Purpose: To address the calculation of intraocular lens (IOL) power in myopic eyes undergoing simultaneous anterior or posterior chamber phakic IOL (pIOL) explantation and lens extraction surgery, a procedure known as bilensectomy, in comparison to myopic eyes without pIOL (controls).

Design: Retrospective analysis of comparability and accuracy.

Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Goethe-University, Frankfurt, Germany.

Methods: IOLMaster 700 (Zeiss Meditec AG) and Pentacam AXL (Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH) were used for biometry. IOL power was calculated using the Barrett Universal II (BUII), Cooke K6, Hoffer-QST, EVO 2.0, PEARL-DGS, Hill-RBF, and Kane formulas included in the ESCRS online calculator, as well as the T2 and Ladas super formula and the SRK/T and Holladay 1 with or without Wang-Koch axial length adjustment.

Results: Sixty eyes (mean axial length: 29.1±2.06 mm) of 60 patients (mean age 57.4±10.9 years) were included. Thirty eyes underwent bilensectomy and 30 served as controls. In bilensectomy eyes, Kane (0.53 D), PEARL-DGS (0.56 D), and Hill-RBF (0.61 D) demonstrated the lowest root-mean square of the absolute error. PEARL-DGS demonstrated the highest percentage of eyes within ±0.25D (46.7%), followed by BUII, Hill-RBF, and Kane (40.0%, each). EVO 2.0 showed a significant difference (p=0.001) in mean PE between the bilensectomy group and the control group. All other formulas showed no significant differences between the two groups (each p>0.05).

Conclusion: Simultaneous explantation of a pIOL does not appear to exert a considerable impact on the IOL power calculation in myopic eyes. The performance of the formulas is comparable to myopic eyes without phakic IOLs.

Background: Orthokeratology (OK) lenses have become a prevalent intervention for myopia control. However, lens decentration, a frequent complication, may influence the efficacy of myopia control. The aim of this study was to systematically assess the impact of OK lens decentration on axial length growth (ALG) in Chinese myopic children through a meta-analysis.

Purpose This study aims to compare the initial three-month outcomes of a single-center experience with small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism using the VisuMax 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) versus the VisuMax 800 (SMILE Pro®; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). This experience is compared to the US Food and Drug Administration approval studies and published literature. Patients and methods The initial 45 eyes (23 patients) that underwent SMILE with the VisuMax 500 in 2018 were compared with the initial 42 eyes (21 patients) that underwent SMILE Pro® with the VisuMax 800 in 2024.

Age-related cataract (ARC) represents a major global cause of visual impairment, with ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation recognized as a primary contributor to oxidative damage in the lens. FOXO3, a key regulator of aging, apoptosis, and oxidative stress-induced cell death, was investigated for its role and regulatory mechanisms in UVB-induced oxidative stress using human lens epithelial cells (HLECs). A progressive decrease in FOXO3 protein expression was observed in the lens capsules across various stages of cataract progression, as well as in UVB-exposed animal models and UVB-treated HLECs.
