Cases
Subluxated Artisan Broken iris sutured
IOL
Malposition of
ACIOL
22
www.globetheme.com 23
Case 1: Subluxated Artisan
54 year-s old
Cat op with artisan IOL implanteation 3 years ago
Presented with reduce vision
Focal iris atrophy (previous enclavemeny site)
With disenclaved iris claw lens
www.globetheme.com 24
Case 2: malposition of the ACIOL
Sutured SF IOLACIOL
2015
This is a 50 year old lady had complicated
cataract surgery few years back
Referred
• ongoing corneal decompensation
(superior)
• Tilted ACIOL
Vision: 6/12
Surgery:
Explantation of ACIOL (with difficulty)
- Implantation of posterior sutured IOL
Vision: 6/12
Stable
www.globetheme.com 25
Case 3: Iris sutured IOL(Broken haptic)
Anterior segment
Iris Sutured IOL
24 year old female/ student
Previous history of trauma 10 years ago (14 years old)
- lens aspiration and IOL implantation
Presented with history of fluctuation of vision
Post recent shuttlecock injury.
Although vision on sitting down was 6/9,
Lying down: IOL was in the anterior vitreous
Sutureless SF IOL
Vision 6/12,6/9
Personal sharing:
Start w easy cases
• (GA/ non vitrectomised eyes)
Avoid soft eye
• (infusion/loads of Viscoelastic)
Don’t be afraid to leave the eye Aphakic
What is best for the patient: depends on the
- availability,
- Most comfortable technique for the attending surgeon
Consider the patient’s age
Other comorbidities:
Ocular or systemic
- ? endure repeated surgery
- Primary or secondary IOL
Be prepared to deal
with unexpected challenges
Plan A/Plan B/Plan C
Yamane
• Few similar lenses
• ACIOL standby
• Scleral sutured IOL:
• few similar IOL power
If too complex:
reschedule when
The surgeon is ready
IOL Properly chosen
IOL Properly fixated
Patient well Monitored
