Comparison of toric Implantabe Contact Lens (ICL) with toric Implantable Phakic Contact lens (IPCL)

Not Applicable

Not yet recruiting

Brief Summary: This is a prospective, randomized study designed to compare two types of phakic lenses; the toric ICL and the toric IPCL. The study will involve 40 eyes with high myopia with regular corneal astigmatism more than 1.25 D. These will be randomly allocated in 2 groups based on computer generated random number table. Group 1 will include 20 eyes which will undergo toric ICL implantation while Group 2 will include 20 eyes which will include 20 eyes which will undergo toric IPCL implantation. Parameters which will be assessed include uncorrected and best corrected visual acuity, keratometric and refractive cylinder, endothelial cell count, intraocular pressure, higher order aberrations, lens rotation, contrast sensitivity and glare acuity. All these investigations will be performed at baseline, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and at 6 months follow up visit.
