We present the case of a patient who had refractive corneal inlay implantation for near vision improvement after bilateral cataract surgery. The patient had a history of bilateral cataract, and a 2-step procedure was suggested to improve her near and distance visual acuities. The first step was bilateral cataract extraction with a power target of plano intraocular lens implantation. Six months later, a refractive corneal inlay, Presbia Microlens, was implanted in the nondominant eye in the intracorneal pocket made with the femtosecond laser. No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. The bilateral uncorrected near visual acuity improved from less than Jaeger (J)6 to J1 and remained stable during the 2-year follow-up. The refractive corneal inlay is a safe, simple, and efficient method for improving near visual acuity in patients after cataract surgery.

我们介绍了一位患者的病例,该患者在双侧白内障手术后植入了屈光性角膜嵌体以改善近视力。该患者有双侧白内障病史,建议采用两步手术来提高其近视力和远视力。第一步是双侧白内障摘除术,目标屈光度为植入平光人工晶状体。六个月后,在非优势眼用飞秒激光制作的角膜内袋中植入了屈光性角膜嵌体Presbia Microlens。术中及术后均未发生并发症。双侧未矫正近视力从低于Jaeger(J)6提高到J1,在2年随访期间保持稳定。屈光性角膜嵌体是一种安全、简单且有效的改善白内障手术后患者近视力的方法。
