[Sulcus fixation of an intraocular lens by means of haptic insertions in scleral tunnels: results at one year].

چکیده
METHODS We included seven eyes in which sutureless intrascleral posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) fixation was performed. Pre- and post-surgical best-corrected visual acuity (LogMAR) and refraction changes were analyzed. There was a one year follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Sutureless intrascleral posterior chamber intraocular lens fixation is, in our experience, a safe technique that allows locating the IOL in the posterior chamber when no capsular support is present. Visual and refractive outcomes were satisfactory.

26-G needle-assisted sutureless glueless intrascleral haptic fixation for secondary ciliary sulcus implantation of three-piece polymethylmethacrylate intraocular lens during penetrating keratoplasty
After tenotomy adjoining 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock limbus, 3-mm-wide partial-thickness scleral tunnels are created at these two diametrically opposite points 3 mm from the limbus such that they reach up to a distance of 1.5 mm from the limbus. Two ab externo sclerotomies are created using 26-G needles on the bed of these partial-thickness scleral tunnels. Precaution is taken to ensure that the po...
متن کاملUltrasound Biomicroscopy Comparison of Ab Interno and Ab Externo Intraocular Lens Scleral Fixation
Purpose. To compare ab interno and ab externo scleral fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lenses (PCIOL) using ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM). Methods. Randomized patients underwent ab externo or ab interno scleral fixation of a PCIOL. Ultrasound biomicroscopy was performed 3 to 6 months postoperatively, to determine PCIOL centration, IOL distance to the iris at 12, 3, 6, and 9 hours, and...
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...

Background & Aim: Several methods have been reported for refixation of dislocated intraocular lenses (IOLs). However, these methods are associated with some disadvantages including vitreous prolaps, vitreous traction, ocular collapse, intraocular hemorrhage, high astigmatism, and the need for complex intraocular maneuvers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of transscleral fi...

Dear Editor, Cho et al. [1] described the “Sutureless intrascleral pocket technique of transscleral fixation of intraocular lens in previous vitrectomized eyes’’ in April issue. The authors prepare two scleral pockets with a crescent knife 2 mm from the limbus and opposed 180 degree each other without any conjunctival dissection. Following, they enter into the posterior chamber with a 26-gauge ...
