Net technique for intraocular lens support in aphakia without capsular support
BACKGROUND This paper describes a modified surgical technique for intraocular lens implantation in aphakic eyes with no capsular support. METHODS Retrospective case series. Seventeen eyes of 17 aphakic patients with no capsule support underwent intraocular lens (IOL) implantation using a standardized technique in which a net was created at the ciliary sulcus plane with two threads forming a n...
متن کاملRetropupilar positioning of foldable iris-claw intraocular lens for correction of aphakia with no capsular support
SUMMARY Iris-claw intraocular lens (ICIOL) for aphakia needs a large 5.4 mm corneal incision for its implantation. The technique needs corneal suture, associated with some postoperative astigmatism. Foldable ICIOL is used in phakic patients undergoing refractive surgery and has the advantage of a sutureless small corneal incision. We report a case of a high myopic patient with dislocated intrao...
متن کاملThe Balanced Two-String Technique for Sulcus Intraocular Lens Implantation in the Absence of Capsular Support
Purpose. To describe and explore an alternative approach for sulcus intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in the absence of capsular support. Methods. The commonly available one-piece poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) lens is stabilized in the sulcus by two intraocular horizontal strings of 10/0 polypropylene suture passed through the lens dialing holes in opposite directions to achieve a mechanic...
متن کاملImplantation of foldable posterior chamber intraocular lens in aphakic vitrectomized eyes without capsular support Implantação lente intraocular dobrável de câmara posterior em olhos afácicos vitrectomizados sem apoio capsular
The capsule of the crystalline lens, if sufficiently present, is used as a support tissue for intraocular lens (IOL) implantation surgery performed on vitrectomized eyes. Eye trauma or iatrogenic damage during complicated cataract surgery, loss of position and zonule connections of the crystalline lens, and IOL via dislocation may cause loss of support tissue for lens capsule implantation prior...
متن کاملRetropupillary fixation of iris-claw intraocular lens versus transscleral suturing fixation for aphakic eyes without capsular support.
PURPOSE Retropupillary fixation of an iris-claw intraocular lens (IOL) (Verisyse, Abbott Medical Optics) was performed for aphakic eyes without sufficient capsular support, and safety and recovery of the procedure were compared with transscleral suturing fixation. METHODS This interventional case series comprised 11 eyes of 10 aphakic patients without capsular support undergoing retropupillar...
