Abstract
The scotopic pupil diameter decreased by a mean of 1.1 mm in myopic eyes and 1.0 mm in hyperopic eyes after implantation of the iris-supported TPIOL. Postoperative pupil size was not related to IOL power, patients' emotional states, or other factors. The slightly smaller pupil diameter in the axis of enclavation suggests that this fixation method restricts pupil size under scotopic conditions, which could reduce the incidence of postoperative photic phenomena.
