Optical Analysis of Visual Improvement after Correction of Anisometropic Amblyopia with a Phakic Intraocular Lens in Adult Patients

After implantation of a PIOL, the visual acuity of myopic patients with anisometropic amblyopia showed a significant increase. This increase was explained using a theoretical eye model not only in terms of magnification but also including changes in aberrations. An evident role of neuroprocessing in this visual improvement was not identified.
