BACKGROUND/AIMS Interlenticular opacification (ILO) is a recognised complication of piggyback intraocular lenses (IOLs). The aetiology, histopathology, and treatment are not clearly defined, however. METHODS Two pairs of AcrySof IOLs were explanted from a patient with bilateral ILO. The explantation technique and surgical challenges of IOL exchanges are described. The explanted IOL complexes ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical outcomes of intraocular lens (IOL) exchange in patients with an opacified ACRL-C160 intraocular lens (IOL) using an optic-only removal technique. SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Soonchunhyang University Hospital, Seoul, Korea. METHODS The study comprised eyes with previous phacoemulsification and implantation of a single-piece hydrophilic acrylic IOL in...

Abstract Uniaxial tensile tests are the most common method for investigating mechanical properties of materials. However, due to small strength and size certain materials, larger conventional universal testing machines sometimes not suitable performing elongation testing, so dedicated test setups required. Therefore, authors developed a device measure small, flexible e.g. fragile specimens caps...

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...
