In clinical practice, the effect of a high vault on corneal endothelial cells after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation remains unclear. Many clinicians theoretically assume that postoperative leads to rapid damage, but no study has yet proven this hypothesis. We conducted paired-eye compare changes in cell density (ECD) between and low groups. This retrospective included 150 eyes 75 patients with bilateral levels differing by more than 200 μm ICL implantation. Patients were followed up for 7 years ECD measurements, assessed 6 months post-surgery. Over 7-year follow-up period, percentage loss was 15.04% 14.45% high- low-vault groups, respectively. The comparison revealed significant reduction high-vault group at 3, 5, postoperatively (P-value < 0.001). long-term observations, higher associated greater loss. Our confirms level may be an important risk factor following
