Spontaneous Late Intraocular Lens and Capsule Tension Ring Dislocation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this report, three cases with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) and advanced age with spontaneous intraocular lens (IOL) and capsule tension ring (CTR) dislocation were presented. All of our cases experienced progressive vision loss without an episode of strenuous physical activity, trauma, or any other ocular disease. Spontaneous dislocation was observed 2.5 to 8 years after uneventful phacosurgery. Each patient underwent complete IOL and CTR removal combined with anterior chamber IOL implantation. No complications were noticed during follow-up. As a result, capsule tension ring does not prevent late IOL dislocation after uncomplicated phacosurgery in the presence of PEX. Therefore, close follow-up is essential for patients with PEX.

Spontaneous late in-the-bag intraocular lens dislocation after can-opener capsulotomy: case report.
We report a case of a 58-year-old man presenting with a spontaneous and late in-the-bag intraocular lens dislocation to the vitreous. A previous uneventful extracapsular cataract extraction with can-opener style capsulotomy and implantation of a polymethylmethacrylate three-piece lens was performed and, two years after the surgery, the patient developed capsule contraction syndrome with a fibro...

We describe a technique to manage late spontaneous intraocular lens (IOL) and capsular tension ring (CTR) dislocation within the intact capsular bag. The subluxated IOL and CTR complex can be positioned in a closed chamber and fixed to the pars plana at both 3 and 9 o'clock quadrants with the presented ab externo direct scleral suturation technique which provides an easy, safe and effective sur...

We aim to present a case of retinal detachment secondary to capsular tension ring dislocation following cataract surgery. A 45-year-old man who underwent cataract surgery 2 years previously presented with decreased vision in his left eye. The patient's posterior capsule was intact with a well-located posterior chamber intraocular lens. Fundus examination revealed retinal detachment with retinal...
متن کاملAnterior Capsule Configuration and Surgical Technique in Cases of Intraocular Lens–Capsular Tension Ring Complex Dislocation
Purpose: To report the formation of the continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) window in cases of intraocular lens (IOL)–Capsular Tension Ring (CTR) complex dislocation, determine appropriate indications for using CTRs, and evaluate surgical techniques for repositioning of the dislocated IOL–CTR complex. Methods: Four consecutive patients who underwent IOL repositioning surgery for IOL–CTR ...
متن کاملCentral cortical cleanup and zonular deficiency
BACKGROUND Complete removal of the cortex has been advocated to prevent posterior capsular opacification but carries the risk of zonular dehiscence, hence there is a need for a safe maximal cortical cleanup technique in eyes with severe diffuse zonulopathy in subjects above age 90. METHODS We used bimanual central cortical cleaning by elevating central fibers and aspirating them toward the pe...
