Abstract |
We assessed the long-term clinical outcomes and evaluate the safety, efficacy and stability of anterior ciliary sclerotomy with collagen T-shaped implants in 19 patients. The study revealed that anterior ciliary sclerotomy with collagen T-shaped implants for the treatment of presbyopia is a safe procedure, but the effect is temporary and diminishes with time.
