    Background: A modified implantable collamer lens (ICL) with a central hole (diameter 0.36 mm), 'Hole-ICL', was created to improve aqueous humour circulation. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of ICL power and the relationship between pupil size and modulation-transfer functions...
