Efficacy and safety of implantable phakic contact lens versus implantable collamer lens in myopic eyes: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of Implantable Phakic Contact Lens (IPCL) versus Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) for correcting myopia. Their systematic review and meta-analysis of nine studies involving 1,187 eyes found that both lenses provided similar visual outcomes and safety profiles, although IPCL showed a slight advantage in spherical equivalent measurements. The study concluded that while both options are effective, further long-term research is needed, particularly regarding the rotational stability of toric ICLs.
