PURPOSE: To investigate the characteristics of intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements using the Icare HOME rebound tonometer (RBT) and non-contact tonometer (NCT) during the early stage after implantable collamer lens (ICL) V4c implantation, and to assess the agreement between the two methods. METHODS: This prospective case series study included 104 eyes of 53 patients (mean age 28.77 ± 5.34 years), who underwent ICL V4c implantation. IOP was measured preoperatively, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 24 h postoperatively by Icare HOME and NCT, respectively. RESULTS: All surgeries were uneventful. IOP measurements by Icare and NCT preoperatively were 14.03 ± 2.90 mmHg and 14.09 ± 2.87 mmHg, respectively.The corresponding values were 12.56 ± 8.09 mmHg and 14.12 ± 6.52 mmHg (P > 0.05) at postoperative 0.5 h, 19.21 ± 8.74 mmHg and 19.60 ± 7.66 mmHg at postoperative 1 h (P > 0.05), 21.21 ± 8.10 mmHg and 20.31 ± 6.93 mmHg at postoperative 2 h (P > 0.05), 16.11 ± 5.89 mmHg and 17.04 ± 4.84 mmHg at postoperative 4 h (P > 0.05), and 14.04 ± 3.88 mmHg and 14.78 ± 2.80 mmHg at postoperative 24 h, respectively (P > 0.05). There was good agreement based on intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between NCT and Icare HOME (all ICCs > 0.6 at different time points [range, 0.6986-0.956]). The Bland-Altman plot showed a mean percentage of over 95.81% of the points falling within the limits of agreement. There was a significant difference in the low IOP measurements (<10 mmHg) between Icare HOME and NCT (7.28 ± 2.55 vs. 10.65 ± 2.48, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Icare HOME can be used for IOP measurement after ICL V4c implantation and demonstrated good agreement with NCT, except in cases with low intraocular pressure (<10 mmHg).
