Résumé
The purpose of this study was to probe into the effectiveness and safety of clear lens extraction with phacoemulsification and implantation of posterior chamber intraocular lens to correct high myopia. Phacoemulsification and implantation of PC-IOL through clear corneal tunnel incision was performed on 50 eyes of 30 high myopic patients. The average age of the patients was 55.9 years [40-67 years] old. The mean spherical equivalent was -18.46 +/- 3.63 D, the mean axial length was 27.71 +/- 1.63 mm and the mean diopter of the IOL was +4.6 +/- 2.4. The study concluded that clear lens phacoemulsification and PC-IOL implantation to correct high myopia is a safe, effective procedure serving as a refractive surgery, due to the good outcome of visual acuity, low incidence of complications as well as high predictability and stability
