Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to test whether surgeries for lenses designed to be implanted in the eye to correct refractive error can be done without the need for using viscoelastic substances that are used routinely nowadays to make it easier to introduce them inside the human eye and protect the inside of the eye during the operation. The main question it aims to answer is that is it safe to do the surgery without using them? to answer this question researchers will access recorded data of patients that underwent refractive surgeries in a private clinic since 2017 and compare them as two groups: those who underwent the traditional procedures and those who had it without the use of dispersive viscoelastics in regard to their vision before and after surgery, their ocular pressure and biomicroscopic analysis of the inside of their corneas before and after surgery.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Unaided Visual Acuity After the Procedure
visual acuity (vision of the patient) without use of any glasses measured using LogMar charts. This measure has no specified units
1-2 years after the surgery
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Intraocular Pressure Postoperatively
first day, first week and first month after the procedure
Specular Microscopy Parameter: Endothelial Cell Density
1-2 years after the surgery
Specular Microscopy Parameter: Endothelial Cells Hexagonality
1-2 years after the surgery
Specular Microscopy Parameter: Coefficient of Variation of Corneal Endothelial Cells
1-2 years after the surgery
Other Outcomes (1)
Postoperative Complications
any time post op within the maximum 2 years follow up period
Study Arms (2)
Traditional OVD group
In this group of patients, the ICL was implanted utilizing both cohesive and dispersive ophthalmic viscosurgical device.
Reduced OVD group
In this group of patients, the ICL was implanted with the use of cohesive OVD only.
Interventions
patients with refractive errors undergo surgical implantation of a lens inside the eye (implantable collamer lens or ICL) to correct these refractive errors. The procedure is done with help of use of both cohesive and dispersive OVD
patients with refractive errors undergo surgical implantation of a lens inside the eye (implantable collamer lens or ICL) to correct these refractive errors. The procedure is done with help of use of only cohesive OVD without using dispersive OVD.
Eligibility Criteria
Records of patients that had undergone ICL implantation surgery in Al-Ferdows private eye hospital in Baghdad between 2017 and 2023 were accessed. Two groups of patients were identified, for the first group the ICL was implanted with the use of both dispersive and cohesive OVDs (traditional OVD group) and for the second one, a novel method of implantation was used without utilizing dispersive OVD (reduced OVD) group.
You may qualify if:
- patients with refractive errors and stable refraction seeking refractive surgery who are fit for phakic IOL (intraocular lens) implantation and having reasonable improvement of visual acuity with refractive correction.
You may not qualify if:
- patients with severe ocular surface disease, unstable refraction, glaucoma, cataract, retinal detachment and uveitis.
