Trans-scleral plugs fixated IOL: a new paradigm for sutureless scleral fixation

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2020
Purpose: To assess the surgical and refractive outcomes of a new technique of sutureless scleral fixation (SSF) using a single-piece foldable acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) (Carlevale). Setting: Department of Translational Surgery and Medicine, Ophthalmology, University of Florence,

Scleral-Fixated Intraocular Lenses

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1988
To the Editor. —We read with interest and surprise the article by Hu et al1entitled "Implantation of Posterior Chamber Lens in the Absence of Capsular and Zonular Support." We are pleased that someone else has used our technique,2or one similar to it, adding to our own experience with this type of surgery.

SCLERAL FIXATED INTRAOCULAR LENSES: An Angiographic Study

Retina, 1998
We reviewed the results, complications, and fluorescein angiographic (FA) findings in eyes that had undergone transscleral fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs).Posterior chamber IOL implantation with scleral fixation was performed on 18 patients.

Scleral fixation using suture retrieval through a scleral tunnel

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2006
Scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs) can be performed under the protection of a scleral flap. A variation of this technique uses a scleral tunnel for suture fixation to the eye. Passage of a double-armed suture through the roof of the scleral tunnel with subsequent retrieval of the suture ends through the external incision for tying ...

Comparison of flanged polypropylene scleral intraocular lens fixation with scleral sutured fixation

Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology
To compare the outcome of 2 intraocular lens (IOL) scleral fixation techniques: double-flanged polypropylene and Hoffman scleral pocket.Retrospective case series of all patients who underwent IOL scleral fixation by either the flange (flange group) or Hoffman scleral pocket (Hoffman group) techniques at the Kaplan Medical Center and the Edith Wolfson ...

Slipknot for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2001
We describe a simple, quick technique to construct a slipknot that can be snared around the haptic of an intraocular lens (IOL) during transscleral fixation of a posterior chamber IOL or repositioning of a dislocated IOL. An in vitro experiment showed that the time required for the slipknot method was significantly less than that for the traditional ...

Scleral Fixation of a Foldable Intraocular Lens

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2002
Abstract. Scleral fixation has become more popular and is now performed by surgeons all over the world. At present, there are no available foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs) with holes that would enable tying a suture on to their haptic. We describe a method for using an available 3-piece acrylic foldable IOL with PMMA haptics for scleral fixation ...

Complications of Scleral-Fixated Intraocular Lenses

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2017
Understanding the evolution of complications after scleral-fixated lens placement demonstrates advantageous surgical techniques and suitable candidates.A literature search in PubMed for several terms, including "scleral intraocular lens complication," yielded 17 relevant articles.Reviewing complication trends over time, lens tilt and suture erosion ...

Sutureless scleral fixation of intraocular lenses

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1997
A technique is presented in which pars plana fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) is achieved by the transscleral passage of the haptics. The IOL used has three equidistant supple loops, each attached to an armed suture, which serve as haptics.

Scleral fixation without conjunctival dissection

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2006
Scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs) and adjunctive capsular devices can be performed under the protection of a scleral flap. A modification of this technique uses a scleral pocket initiated through a peripheral clear corneal incision. Full-thickness passage of a double-armed suture through the scleral pocket and conjunctiva, with subsequent ...
