摘要

AIM:To observe the characteristics of iridociliary cysts in myopic patients and evaluate the influences on the position and safety of implantable collamer lens(ICL)after surgery.METHODS:Totally 270 eyes of 135 patients who underwent ICL surgery for the corrections of myopia were included in this study.Preoperative and postoperative morphology of iridociliary cysts were observed in ultrasonic biomicroscopy(UBM)image.RESULTS:A total of 138 iridociliary cysts were found in 88 eyes of 50 patients among 270 eyes of 135 patients before surgery(37%).Twenty-five patients had cysts in one eye(50%)and 25 had cysts in both eyes(50%).The prevalence of iridociliary cysts was negatively correlated with age,but no gender difference(P>0.05).The incidence of iridociliary cysts was much less in eyes with myopia greater than-9.00 D(P<0.05).The diameter of the largest cyst was 1.96 mm and the smallest cyst was 0.24 mm,with a majority within the range of 0.5 to 1.0 mm.Most of the cysts were located in the inferior temporal quadrant.One year after ICL implantation,51 iridociliary cysts(37%)remained unchanged,47 cysts(34%)decreased in size,and 40 cysts(29%)disappeared.Most of cysts that changed after surgery were smaller than 1.0 mm(P<0.05)and located in the nasal and temporal sides around the haptics of implantable lens.All the ICL were in their original position.CONCLUSION:Iridociliary cysts are commonly seen in myopic eyes.The cysts have no impact on the safety of ICL surgery.Some cysts may decrease in size or disappear after ICL implantation.
