    High myopia cataracts develop earlier in longer eyes, requiring surgery a decade sooner than typical cataracts. Barrier-type intraocular lens implants are recommended to prevent complications in these high myopia patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Biometry
    • Statistical Analysis

    Context:

    • High myopia, characterized by elongated eyes (≥26 mm), presents unique challenges for cataract surgery.
    • Cataracts in high myopia patients typically manifest and require surgical intervention approximately ten years earlier than in the general population.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the surgical outcomes and complications of cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in eyes with high myopia.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of barrier-type IOLs and develop a specific formula for IOL power calculation in this patient cohort.

    Summary:

    • Biometric and statistical analysis of 163 high myopia eyes revealed earlier cataract onset and surgical intervention.
    • Extra-capsular extraction with intercapsular implantation showed rare pre- and post-operative complications, with retinal detachment in 1.84% and secondary capsulotomy in 8% after 22 months.

  • Barrier-type IOLs are suggested for preventing secondary capsular opacification and vitreous issues, and a novel IOL power calculation formula for high myopia was developed.

    • Impact:

    • Findings support the use of barrier-type IOLs for improved outcomes in high myopia cataract surgery.
    • The developed IOL power calculation formula can enhance refractive accuracy in this specialized patient group.
    • Early surgical intervention and appropriate IOL selection can mitigate visual impairment in individuals with high myopia and cataracts.
