story dislocated Posterior chamber intraocular Lens Management
نویسنده
چکیده
P osterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) are exquisitely engineered to provide excellent vision when implanted into a stable capsule following extracapsular cataract extraction. If the lens capsule or the supporting lens zonules fail, and the IOL dislocates, vision usually deteriorates. Unfortunately, just as cars are not designed to be easily fixed after crashing, IOLs are not designed to be easily repositioned after dislocating.

متن کاملPosterior dislocation of an intraocular lens implant and its removal.
The cause of dislocation of an intraocular lens is a direct blow or jerk, and dislocation may complicate both iris-supported and capsule-supported lenses. In capsule-supported lenses the implant dislocates towards the anterior chamber but in iris-supported lenses the dislocation is posterior. A technique for removal of a posterity dislocated lens is described.
