Exposure of haptic of posterior chamber intraocular lens after sutureless intrascleral fixation
BACKGROUND A technique of sutureless intrascleral fixation of an intraocular lens (IOL) in an eye that lacks a posterior capsular support has been reported. The advantage of this technique was that the suture-related complications did not develop. However, the long-term complications of a sutureless IOL implantation have not been reported. CASE PRESENTATION A 75-years-old man had a sutureless...
متن کاملNeedle-guided intrascleral fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lens for aphakia correction.
We present a technique for the surgical correction of aphakia that allows intrascleral fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) without sutures. The technique is useful in situations in which one haptic has to be fixated and capsule support is adequate for fixation of the second haptic. The haptic is externalized with a 25-gauge needle; no surgical instrumentation other than that ...
متن کاملSurgical Outcome of Simultaneous Intraocular Lens Rescue and Sutureless Intrascleral Tunnel Fixation of Dislocated Intraocular Lenses.
PURPOSE To report short-term surgical outcomes of single-stage simultaneous rescue and sutureless intrascleral fixation of dislocated intraocular lens (IOLs). METHODS Sixteen eyes of 16 patients who underwent simultaneous rescue and intrascleral fixation of dislocated 3-piece IOLs were retrospectively evaluated. Partial thickness limbal-based scleral flaps (2.0 × 2.0 mm) were created, and a 2...
متن کاملTransconjunctival sutureless intrascleral intraocular lens fixation using intrascleral tunnels guided with catheter and 30-gauge needles.
We invented a new method for fixing an intraocular lens (IOL) in the scleral tunnel without using a wide conjunctival incision. Modified bent catheter needles were used to penetrate the IOL haptics through the sclerotomy sites. The IOL haptics were inserted into 30-guage (G) scleral tunnels guided by double 30-G needles piercing the sclera. All procedures were performed through the conjunctiva ...
متن کاملSutureless, Glueless, Scleral Fixation of Single-Piece and Toric Intraocular Lens: A Novel Technique
Sutureless, glueless, scleral fixation of an intraocular lens is a known technique of fixing a lens in the scleral pockets. However, this technique is applied to single-piece and toric lenses instead of 3-piece lenses, allowing the advantage of the use of premium lenses in patients with poor capsular support. Favourable results without complications of pigment dispersion, iris transillumination...
