Scleral Fixation Intraocular lenses
Background: The 1ry indication for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOL) is dislocation as a principal complication of cataract surgery. Inadequate capsular support is the most common cause of IOL dislocation. Other indications include traumatic phakic lens dislocation (cataractous or clear), surgically aphakic eyes or anterior chamber IOL with complications (persistent hyphema, uveitis)...
متن کاملModern scleral contact lenses: A review.
Scleral contact lenses (ScCL) have gained renewed interest during the last decade. Originally, they were primarily used for severely compromised eyes. Corneal ectasia and exposure conditions were the primary indications. However, the indication range of ScCL in contact lens practices seems to be expanding, and it now increasingly includes less severe and even non-compromised eyes, too. All lens...
متن کاملChange in intraocular pressure during scleral depression.
PURPOSE Manometric studies have found that intraocular pressure (IOP) rises 116-350 mmHg during scleral depression in surgical settings. No information is available regarding the effect of scleral depression on IOP in routine clinical settings. The aim of this study is to quantify the change in IOP that occurs when scleral depression is performed on normal eyes in a routine clinical setting. ...
متن کاملScleral gel contact lenses in treatment of dry eyes.
In the past I5 years various types of scleral contact lenses have been developed for the treatment of pathological conditions of the cornea and conjunctiva. Our previous investigations found the hydrophilic corneo-scleral lens very effective in the treatment of various inflammatory and degenerative corneal changes (Krejci, I970, 1971). In our present study the Czech hydrophilic corneo-scleral c...
متن کاملGlistenings on Intraocular Lenses
To the Editor: I read the recent article by Colin and Orignac,1 which appeared in the December 2011 issue of the Journal of Refractive Surgery, with great interest. Of particular note were the data presented on the effect of glistenings on straylight as measured by the C-Quant device (Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany). The data presented vary with data previously presented by the autho...
