Scleral fixation of dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lenses: Temporary haptic externalization through a clear corneal incision.
PURPOSE To report the results of managing dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lenses (PC IOLs) by externalizing the haptics through a clear corneal incision. SETTING The Retina Center at Pali Momi, Aiea, Hawaii, USA. METHODS This retrospective consecutive series comprised cases in which a dislocated PC IOL was managed with pars plana vitrectomy. With this method, the dislocated PC IOL ...
متن کاملScleral Fixation of Dislocated Intraocular Lenses by Haptic Externalization through a Clear Corneal Incision
Several techniques have been employed for repositioning dislocated intraocular lenses (IOLs). Herein, we describe a simplified and modified technique in which scleral fixation is performed together with temporary externalization of IOL haptics through a small, superior clear corneal incision. The sutures are tied to the externalized haptics; the haptics are then repositioned into the anterior c...
متن کاملScleral Fixation Intraocular lenses
Background: The 1ry indication for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOL) is dislocation as a principal complication of cataract surgery. Inadequate capsular support is the most common cause of IOL dislocation. Other indications include traumatic phakic lens dislocation (cataractous or clear), surgically aphakic eyes or anterior chamber IOL with complications (persistent hyphema, uveitis)...
متن کاملModified technique of haptic externalization for scleral fixation of dislocated posterior chamber lens implants.
PURPOSE To describe a modified technique of haptic externalization during repositioning of dislocated posterior chamber lens implants, which facilitates placement of scleral fixation sutures around the haptic for implant stabilization. METHODS We describe a technique of repositioning a dislocated posterior chamber implant with scleral fixation sutures, which uses a small, clear corneal incisi...
متن کاملTemporary Haptic Externalization and Four-point Fixation of Intraocular Lens in Scleral Fixation to Enhance Stability
PURPOSE To report the results of a new technique for intraocular lens scleral fixation of temporary haptic externalization and four-point fixation for enhanced stability. METHODS Two 10-0 polypropylene strands were fixed at two points 2 mm apart on each haptic of a conventional three-piece intraocular lens, using our previously reported method of temporary haptic externalization after injecto...
