Figure 1. Detailed surgical procedure of the one-step viscoelastic agent technique for ICL V4c implantation.

Figure 1

A: A 3-mm temporal clear corneal incision is made; B: The anterior chamber depth is stable, indicating that a good self-closing incision has been made; C: A Toric ICL V4c lens is implanted by an injector cartridge; D: The ICL V4c lens unfolds smoothly, and three haptics are placed in the posterior chamber and one in the anterior chamber; E: The anterior chamber depth remains stable after the injector is removed; F: A little amount of viscoelastic surgical agent is injected above the haptic in the anterior chamber; G: The haptic in the anterior chamber is placed in the posterior chamber using a manipulator; H: Adjustments of the ICL V4c position are made; I: The anterior chamber depth remains stable after the ICL V4c is implanted; J: The viscoelastic surgical agent is then washed away using a balanced salt solution; K: Self-closing of the incision is finally checked; L: The ICL V4c lens implantation procedures is completed.
