Treatment of dystrophic calcification on a silicone intraocular lens with pars plana vitrectomy
PURPOSE Dense, vision-obscuring calcification on the posterior aspect of silicone intraocular lenses (IOLs) is often not amenable to neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet capsulotomy, and, in prior reports, has required IOL exchange. We report the successful removal of dense calcium deposition on the posterior surface of a three-piece silicone lens using pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). MATERIALS AND...
متن کاملOpacification of a CeeON 911A Silicone Intraocular Lens Caused by Deposits on the Optic without Asteroid Hyalosis
This study reports a case of calcific opacification on an implanted silicone intraocular lens (IOL) without asteroid hyalosis. A 72-year-old female was referred for blurred vision in her left eye. Her history showed she had undergone uneventful phacoemulsification with in the bag implantation of a silicone foldable hydrophobic IOL (CeeON 911A, Pharmacia Corporation) 39 months earlier. Under sli...
متن کاملAqueous misdirection following pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil injection
PURPOSE To report a retrospective series of seven phakic eyes of seven patients suffering from a malignant glaucoma-like syndrome following pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil (SO) injection. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seven eyes with retinal detachment treated with pars plana vitrectomy with or without scleral buckling with SO tamponade. This was followed by cataract extraction to manage the e...
متن کاملPost-Cataract Surgery Visual Disturbance in a Retinitis Pigmentosa Patient with Asteroid Hyalosis
A patient with retinitis pigmentosa showed visual disturbances following successful cataract surgery. He had a dense asteroid hyalosis in the eye before cataract surgery. After the surgery he noticed that his vision became worse. The visual disturbance was explained as being caused by the progression of retinal degeneration. Although the electroretinogram was non-recordable, the degeneration of...
متن کاملPhacoemulsification and silicone oil removal through the planned posterior capsulorhexis.
The purpose of the study was to present operative technique and results of a passive hydrodynamic expression of silicone oil through planned posterior capsulorhexis during cataract surgery in patients after pars plana vitrectomy. The retrospective analysis was done on 57 eyes with cataract after a previous pars plana vitrectomy, operated on between 2001 and 2004 at the Clinical hospital "Sestre...
