Abstract

Combined posterior chamber phakic IOL implantation with the STAAR Collamer plate lens and LASIK (bioptics) is an effective and reasonably predictable method for correcting myopia from -18 to -35 D. Gains in spectacle-corrected visual acuity were common, and results demonstrated good short-term safety and refractive stability.
