Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of posterior-cham-ber phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation in patients with high myopia. Material and Methods: Seventy-six eyes of 38 patients who had high myopia and undergone Eyecrylphakic IOL implantation were enrolled in the study. Eighteen of them (47%) were males and 20 (53%) were females. Their mean age was 28.97±4.10 (22-36) years. Uncor-rected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), au-torefractive and keratometric measurements were evaluated pre and postoperatively. Results: The mean 1st week, 1st month and 6th month postoperative spherical, astigmatic and spherical equivalent (SE) values were significantly lower than those of preoperative values, and the mean 1st week, 1st month and 6th month postoperative UCVA and BCVA values were significantly higher than preoperative values (p< 0.05). The mean 1st week, 1st month and 6th month postoperative an-terior chamber depth (ACD) values were significantly lower than pre-operative values (p< 0.05). There were no significant differences between preoperative and postoperative central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell density (ECD) and intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements (p> 0.05). The postoperative first-week mean spherical value was 0.11±0.44 D, and it was stable until the 6th month. Postoper-ative 6th month mean endothelial cell loss was 3% in comparison with preoperative values. The difference was not significant (p> 0.05). Ad-ditionally, no abnormal morphologic changes in endothelial cell layer were observed in specular microscopy. Conclusion: Eyecrylphakic IOL implantation is …
