Abstract
To develop and evaluate reliable formulas for predicting postoperative vault more accurately after implantable collamer lens (ICL) surgery in a White patient population with varying degrees of ametropia. Private clinical practice. Retrospective analysis on dataset split into a separate training and test set. 115 eyes of 59 patients were used to train regression models predicting postoperative vault based on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) parameters (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator [LASSO]-OCT formula), ocular biometry data (LASSO-Biometry formula), or data from both devices (LASSO-Full formula). The performance of these models was evaluated against the manufacturer's nomogram (Online Calculation and Ordering System [OCOS]) and Nakamura 1 (NK1) and 2 (NK2) formulas on a matched separate test set of 37 eyes of 19 patients. The mean preoperative spherical equivalent was -5.32 ± 3.37 (range: +3.75 to -17.375 diopters). The mean absolute errors of the estimated vs achieved postoperative vault for the LASSO-Biometry, LASSO-OCT, and LASSO-Full formulas were 144.1 ± 107.9 μm, 145.6 ± 100.6 μm, and 132.0 ± 86.6 μm, respectively. These results were significantly lower compared with the OCOS, NK1, and NK2 formulas ( P < .006). Postoperative vault could be estimated within 500 μm in 97.3% (LASSO-Biometry) to 100% of cases (LASSO-OCT and LASSO-Full). The LASSO suite provided a set of powerful, reproducible yet convenient ICL sizing formulas with state-of-the-art performance in White patients, including those with low to moderate degrees of myopia.
