Laser in situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most commonly performed and widely accepted corneal refractive To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the new "Hole ICL" in comparison with conventional ICL 3 months after This study was a non-inferiority trial in which both ICL models, the conventional ICL (Group A) and the new Hole ICL (Group B), were studied. Patients were divided into 2 groups, each containing 60 eyes: the conventional ICL group, requiring laser peripheral iridotomy, and the new Hole ICL group. The uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) log MAR and the intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded preoperatively, and then 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months postoperatively. Spherical aberration was measured preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. The mean age in the conventional ICL group was 29.75±6.17 years (range 21-45 years), and 28.75±5.27 years The two groups had similar clinical effectiveness in terms of unaided visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity,
