Case Summary • Post LASIK (2 months)
Case Summary • Ms N • 24 year old / Chinese Malaysian / F • Contact lens intolerant with GPC / Peripheral vascularization • poor LASIK candidate (OD 539mm, OS 506mm)
Case Summary • Lt AC PIOL with inferior AK • Rt AC PIOL with inferior AK
Case Summary • Patient underwent Rt intralase and LASIK
Bioptics • Defined as combination of 2 procedures1 • Phakic IOL implantation followed by LASIK to correct high degrees of refractive error • Maximal degree of myopia or hyperopia intended to be corrected by the IOL • Residual refractive error corrected with LASIK after 1 – 3 mths
Efficacy of PIOL for high myopic • Artisan PIOL – Benedetti et al9 • UCVA > 20/40 - 83.8% (Myopia -6.75 to 15.5D) • UCVA > 20/40 - 68.0% (Myopia -16 to 23D) • Complications • Iris atrophy 11.8% • Lens decentration 5.4% • Night glare 6.4% • Mean Endothelial cell loss11: 0.87-3.9% (12 mths) and 0.78 - 5.4% (24 mths)
Efficacy of PIOL for high myopic • Comaparsion of PIOL positional stability– Baumeister et al10 • AC PIOL – No Sig. Ant-post mvt • PC IOL – Sig mvt towards crystalline lens • Optical Axis Rotation • Nuvita – 1.9 degrees • Artisan – 0.6 degrees • ICL – 0.9 degrees • AC IOL (iris fixated) - Best positional stability
Contraindications for PIOL • Contraindications for PIOL • AC depth < 3mm • Endothelial cell counts < 2000 • Previous lens opacities • Ant segment pathologies
Limitations of individual modalities • LASIK for high myopics (>-12.0D) • Limited corrective magnitude dependent on corneal thickness • Increased level of side effects secondary to increased corneal depth ablation • PIOL • IOL decentration and displacement • Cataract formation • Pupillary block glaucoma • Inflammatory lens precipitates • Anterior Chamber (Uveitis – Glaucoma – Hyphema Syndrome, Endothelial decompensation)
Bioptics • Key Advantages • Utilises best of both worlds • Increases possible range of surgical correction for myopia and hyperopia with decreased side effects • Good predictability with LASIK • Better functional vision post LASIK • Key Disadvantages • Staged - Interval between surgeries • 2 separate procedures hence increase surgical risk • Complications related to PIOL • Complications related to LASIK
Evolution of Bioptics • Described by Roberto Zaldivar2,4,5 • In 1988, he used AC PIOLs (Angle Fixated) alone. • Baikoff or Nuvita Lens. • Many AC PIOL related complications
Evolution of Bioptics • In 1996, Zaldivar pioneered bioptics technique. 2 • PC instead of AC PIOL (STAAR AG ICL) • Combination follow on of LASIK after PC PIOLs • PC considered better site vs AC 4,5 • Risk of endothelial damage minimised • Fewer incidences of Halos or glares • However, key specific disadvs were noted 4,5 • Decentration • Risk of cataractogenesis & PCO formation • Pupillary block glaucoma
Evolution of Bioptics • Jose Guell modified the bioptics technique6 • Termed ARS approach • Utilises AC PIOL but IRIS fixated • Artisan non-toric lens • LASIK flap performed before IOL implantation • 6mm optical zone for both procedures7 • Key specific advantages vs PC IOL • Endothelial-IOL contact during microkeratome pass avoided8 • No potential risk of PC PIOL dislocation during suction
Suggested choice for each Patient • Myopia -9.0 to -12.0D – LASIK • Myopia -12.0D to -15.0D – Phakic IOL implantation • Myopia > 15.0D – Bioptics • More than 50yrs or early lens opacification – Lens extraction with LASIK for residual refractive error
In the pipeline • Toric AC PIOL lens12 • Mean post op astigmatism – 0.56D/ Axis 31 degrees • 6 mnth follow up – No significant rotation observed • LASEK with AC PIOL13 • Murta et al used LASEK as an alternative to LASIK • 32 eyes in 18 patients • Mean Pre Op SE -16.2D • Artisan AC PIOL followed by LASEK 2-3 mths later • 90% +1D emmetropia; 71.9% +0.5 D emmetropia • LASEK Cx – Epi Defect 1st POD 72%; Grd 1 haze 12.5% • Implications – Alternative for LASIK incompatible • Intralase for LASIK flap creation

Wave-front guided LASIK / PTK • Achievement of reduction in refractive cylinder, increase in uncorrected visual acuity, and improved corneal regularity in the majority of patients with severe corneal irregularities e.g. decentered / small optical zones after LASIK or irregular astigmatism after keratoplasty / trauma.

Higher-order aberrations? • Total and higher-order RMS aberrations decreased by 40 - 45%, after C-CAP treatment. • Topography-driven C-CAP method is effective in post-surgical decentration to enhance the overall quality of vision, reduce patient-perceived visual aberrations, regularize the corneal surface, and maximize BCVA.
