    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Refractive Surgery

    Background:

    • Phakic intraocular lenses (PIOLs) are a long-established refractive surgery option.
    • They effectively treat high myopia, hyperopia, ametropia, and mixed refractive errors, including astigmatism.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present current surgical options and PIOLs for refractive correction.
    • To highlight the possibilities and limitations associated with PIOL implantation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current surgical techniques and available phakic intraocular lenses.
    • Emphasis on anatomical and refractive requirements for patient selection.

    Main Results:

    • PIOL implantation is a viable option for a range of refractive errors.
    • Successful outcomes depend on meeting specific patient criteria and choosing appropriate IOLs.

    Conclusions:

    • PIOLs offer a valuable solution in refractive surgery for suitable candidates.
    • Adherence to established guidelines, such as those from the German "Commission Refractive Surgery" (KRC), is crucial for maximizing safety and achieving optimal refractive results.
