PURPOSE To report and compare the surgical, visual, and anatomical outcomes following treatment of dislocated intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS The medical records of 28 eyes of 28 patients were evaluated. Age, gender, pre-and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), surgical methods, and complications were recorded. RESULTS Pre-and postoperative BCVA ranged from counting fingers...

PURPOSE To rebuild the three-dimensional (3-D) model of the anterior segment by high-speed swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) and evaluate the repeatability of measurement for the parameters of capsule-intraocular lens (C-IOL) complex. METHODS Twenty-two pseudophakic eyes from 22 patients were enrolled. Three continuous SSOCT measurements were performed in all eyes and the tomo...

PURPOSE Opacification of hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) is an emerging complication following Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). We report six cases and review the current literature. METHODS In this retrospective, noncomparative, observational case series, patients with IOL opacification after previous DSAEK surgery were identified from corneal clin...

BACKGROUND/AIM To measure the positions of scleral-fixated intraocular lenses (IOLs) using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to evaluate the influence of the position of scleral-fixated IOL on the quality of vision. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six eyes of 26 patients were included in the study. The average age was 57.5 (11 to 78) years. Anterior segment images were take...

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 ...

PURPOSE To compare the clinical results of heparin surface modified (HSM) hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) with those of hydrophobic acrylic IOL. METHODS One hundred patients with cataract were randomized to receive one of acrylic foldable IOLs after phacoemulsification: HSM hydrophilic acrylic IOL (n=50) BioVue3 (BioVue, OII, Ontario, CA, USA) and hydrophobic acrylic IOL (n=50) Sen...

PURPOSE To evaluate the long-term outcomes of ciliary sulcus versus capsular bag fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs) in children after pediatric cataract surgery. METHODS IOL was implanted in the ciliary sulcus in 21 eyes of 14 children, and in the capsular bag in 19 eyes of 12 children for the treatment of pediatric cataract in an institutional setting. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was p...

purpose : to evaluate the near visual performance of an accommodative intraocular lens (iol) tetraflex, in comparison to a standard monofocal foldable iol in cataract surgery. setting: eye research center , farabi eye hospital , department of ophthalmology, tehran university of medical sciences, iran . methods : forty six eyes of 23 patients with cataract underwent phacoemulsification and accom...

PURPOSE To compare the rotational stability, total misalignment, and visual and refractive outcomes achieved with a trifocal toric versus a monofocal toric intraocular lens (IOL). METHODS In this prospective, interventional case series, eyes of patients consecutively scheduled for cataract surgery who had clinically relevant astigmatism were implanted with a FineVision Pod FT trifocal toric I...

A 72-year-old man had exchange of a foldable silicone multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) by transection, removal, and monofocal IOL replacement. One month after the exchange, irreversible corneal edema developed and penetrating keratoplasty was performed. At the time of the corneal transplant, a small silicone fragment was discovered in and removed from the anterior chamber. Histologic evaluatio...
