The following article was received based on a literature review: article: three-year outcomes of implantable collamer lens followed by excimer laser enhancement ("bioptics") in the treatment of high myopic astigmatism.A retrospective study was done to describe three-year outcomes of spherical implantable collamer lens (icl) followed by excimer laser enhancement (bioptics) in eyes with high myopic astigmatism.A total of 34 eyes of 17 patients underwent icl implantation followed by excimer laser enhancement.During the excimer laser enhancement, the lasik flap creation was done with the intralase fs laser platform (j&j surgical vision) with a 9.2 mm diameter and a 120mm thickness with a superior hinge.It was reported that two eyes were over corrected (n=2) and one eye was under corrected (n=1).There were no identifiable causes that explained these refractive surprises.Residual astigmatism of less than 0.50 d was reported in 88% of eyes.Between 12 months and 3 years, 10% had manifest spherical equivalent (mse) fluctuation greater than 0.50 d.The mean preoperative endothelial cell density (ecd) was 3046 ± 212 cells/mm2 and decreased to 2871 ± 312 cells/mm2 (2062 to 3485) at 12 months post-enhancement.The mean percentage of endothelial cell loss was 5.7% at 12 months post-enhancement.The rms of total higher order aberrations (hoa) was slightly increased at 12-month post-enhancement (from 0.31 ± 0.07 um (0.28 to 0.46) it increased to 0.42 ± 0.18 um (0.20 to 0.66)).Six eyes developed mild night glare (n=6) following enhancement and were started on brimonidine drops with improvement in symptoms.One eye was found to have a steep vault (n=1), and one eye had a shallow vault (n=1) that both warranted icl exchange.Three patients developed trace anterior subcapsular cataract (n=3) that did not affect vision and were observed.One eye developed a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (n=1) three years after surgery that was treated with a scleral buckle with resulting myopic refraction of -2.00 d.Further interventions were not reported.Other jnj products were mentioned but no complaints were reported against them.
