Refractive errors are a common ophthalmic disease, which can be corrected by wearing glasses, laser refractive surgery and so on. However, there are some limitations of these methods for treating high myopia, keratoconus, etc. The implantation of the posterior chamber implantable collamer lens(ICL)is one of the most common surgry for correcting refractive errors(mainly apply to high myopia and astigmatism). This study aim to explore the safety and effectiveness of implanting ICL to correct low to moderate and high myopia or hyperopia. This review will summarize the research progress of implanting ICL to correct refractive errors.
