Dislocation of a plate-haptic silicone intraocular lens into the anterior chamber
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2001Posterior dislocation is a well-described complication of plate-haptic intraocular lenses (IOLs). It usually occurs after an opening in the posterior capsule, either intraoperatively or after a neodymium: YAG capsulotomy occurs. We report a case of anterior luxation of a plate-haptic silicone IOL occurring 4 months after uneventful cataract surgery ...

Extrusion of an anterior chamber intraocular lens complicated by Haemophilus endophthalmitis
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1998To describe a case of late postoperative endophthalmitis in a patient who had undergone anterior chamber intraocular lens implantation 6 years previously.Onset, course, and outcome of the patient's eye disease are presented.The patient was initially examined with erosion of the eyewall, extrusion of the lens haptic, and endophthalmitis.

Penetrating Keratoplasty With Anterior or Posterior Chamber Intraocular Lens Implantation
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1994To compare the outcome of anterior chamber (AC) intraocular lens (IOL) implantation with the outcome of posterior chamber (PC) IOL implantation at the time of penetrating keratoplasty in the absence of capsular support.Retrospective study of 122 eyes that underwent secondary IOL implantation without capsular support at the time of penetrating ...

Scleral Fixation for a Phakic Anterior Chamber Disc Intraocular Lens
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1998ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Angle-supported phakic anterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) require a high degree of anterior vaulting, but this can cause an inadequate distance between the IOL and the cornea, especially during rubbing or squeezing of the eye.

Presbyopia Correction with an Anterior Chamber Phakic Multifocal Intraocular Lens
Ophthalmology, 2005To investigate in a pilot study the potential of an anterior chamber phakic refractive multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) prototype for the correction of near and far vision in those with myopic and hyperopic presbyopia.A multicenter, open-label, prospective, noncomparative pilot evaluation.There were 17 patients (34 eyes), 16 women and 1 man, with a ...

Simcoe cannula as an anterior chamber maintainer for intraocular lens implantation
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2013Contraction of the anterior capsule due to tissue fibrosis is known to occur after cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation. This complication may exert a traction force on the ciliary zonule during the postoperative course. In cataract surgery in pseudoexfoliation patients, deviation of the postoperative refraction from the expected value ...

Haptic externalization in a backwardly placed anterior chamber intraocular lens
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1990A patient who had been asymptomatic following extracapsular cataract extraction with posterior capsule rupture and anterior chamber lens implantation presented 18 months postoperatively with iritis and erosion of the superior haptic through the site of the cataract wound.

Long term observations on an anterior chamber Ridley intraocular lens
International Ophthalmology, 1986In 1965 the patient, aged 6, sustained a perforating eye injury which was repaired and a traumatic cataract was aspirated within five weeks. Five years later a Ridley Mk 2 A/C intraocular lens was inserted. Several episodes of blunt trauma occurred over a three year period following this procedure.

Primary anterior chamber intraocular lens for the treatment of severe crystalline lens subluxation
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2009Subluxated cataractous and clear lenses are commonly treated by limbal or pars plana lensectomy followed by primary or secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Adjunctive capsular prosthetic devices have facilitated lens removal and IOL centration in these challenging cases but have also added complexity and potential complications to the ...
