Effect of implantable collamer lens on accommodation and nonstrabismic binocular anomalies in patients with high myopia: report of 30 cases
Objective To compare the types of accommodation and nonstrabismic binocular anomalies before and after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in the patients with high myopia. Methods Thirty patients with high myopia
at an age of 20-35 (28 in median)
were selected for ICL implantation in our department from September 2014 to February 2015
and they had spherical power from -10.00D to -20.00D (-16.25D in median)
and cylindrical power from 0 to -5.00D (-3.75D in median). Before ICL implantation and in the 1st
3rd
and 6th months after ICL implantation
binocular visual functions were examined under the best corrected visual acuity with the test object at the previous line
and amplitude of accommodation (AMP). The types of accommodation and nonstrabismic binocular anomalies were analyzed in different periods. Results Before ICL implantation
22 (73.33%) patients were free from binocular single vision. Specifically
there were 18 (60%) patients with monocular suppression and 4 (13.3%) with diplopia. After ICL implantation
there was no suppression or diplopia
and all the patients showed stable binocular single vision. Before ICL implantation
8 patients (26.67%) had accommodative dysfunctions and 22 patients (73.33%) had binocular dysfunctions. After ICL implantation
29(96.67%) patients had accommodative insufficiency
and only one (3.33%) had convergence insufficiency and accommodative insufficiency. Conclusion The patients with high myopia have different types and degrees of accommodation and nonstrabismic binocular anomalies. ICL can reduce the patients, myopic power and improve their binocular single vision. But it leads to accommodation deficiency
which may be associated with asthenopia symptoms after ICL implantation.
