Correlation of iris-ciliary angle with haptic position and vault after implantation of implantable collamer lens
摘要
This study aimed to investigate the impact of the iris-ciliary angle (ICA) on the position of the implantable collamer lens (ICL) haptic and vault following ICL implantation.
MethodsA prospective, observational study was conducted using data from 135 patients who underwent horizontal ICL implantation. Patients were categorized into three groups by ICA: ICA1 (0–32°), ICA2 (32–64°), and ICA3 (64–96°) to compare parameters. The parameters correlated with the distance from the iris root to the end of the ICL haptic (IRH) and vault was analysed respectively. A multiple linear stepwise regression model was constructed to estimate IRH.
ResultsThe vault decreased sequentially across the three groups (P < 0.001) and was negatively correlated with ICA (P < 0.001). The proportion of ICL haptic insertion under the ciliary body was significantly higher in the ICA3 group compared with the ICA1 and ICA2 groups (P = 0.039). Stepwise regression analysis showed that IRH = -1.174 + 0.005 × ICA + 0.118 × horizontal sulcus-to-sulcus (STS) distance (adjusted R2 = 0.334, Durbin-Watson value = 1.908, P < 0.001), with ICA as the primary influencing factor (β = 0.536, P < 0.001), followed by horizontal STS distance (β = 0.348, P < 0.001).
ConclusionsWhen the ICA is excessively large, the ICL haptic is more likely to be inserted under the ciliary body. An increase in ICA is associated with a greater IRH and a lower vault.
Key messages• More posterior chamber anatomical parameters of eyes are needed to improve the accuracy of predicting the vault.
• A negative correlation exists between the iris-ciliary angle (ICA) and vault.
• When the ICA is excessively large, the ICL haptic is more likely to be inserted under the ciliary body.
• The ICA is the primary influencing factor when predicting the distance from the iris root to the end of the ICL haptic (IRH).
