AIM: To assess the safety, efficacy and predictability of the AcrySof phakic angle-supported intraocular lens (IOL) (Alcon Inc., U.S.A.) for correction of high-to-extremely high myopia in adults. METHODS: In this prospective study performed in Tianjin Medical University Eye Center & College of Optometry, Tianjin, China, 25 eyes of 13 patients were implanted with AcrySof phakic angle-supported IOLs and followed for 1 year postoperatively. Preoperative manifest refractive sphere was (-12.08±2.44) diopters (D) and cylinder was (-1.35±0.62)D. Visual acuity, predictability and stability of manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE), adverse events, and endothelial cell density were analyzed during 1-year of follow-up. RESULTS: After 1 year of follow-up, no eyes lost≥1 line (best spectacle-corrected visual acuity)BSCVA; an uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of 20/20 or better was achieved in 60% of eyes; 100% had an UCVA of 20/40 or better; a BSCVA of 20/30 or better was achieved by 100% of eyes; 84% had a BSCVA of 20/20 or better. The overall mean percentage change in endothelial cell density 1 year after surgery was (-0.27±3.60)%. Two eyes (8%) had increased intraocular pressure (IOP) on the day of surgery. No pupil ovalization, pupillary block, or retinal detachment events were observed. CONCLUSION: After 1 year of follow-up, the implantation of AcrySof phakic angle-supported IOL is proved to be safe, effective and predictable with minimal complications in patients with high-to-extremely high myopia. Due to the limitation of visiting time, long-term of clinical investigation is necessary to verify the safety and efficacy of this IOL.
