New Surgical Approach for Secondary Intraocular Lens Implantation Using an Artificial Bag with Optic Capture in Patients with Intraocular Lens Dislocation

Abstract

Purpose:We present a newly developed approach to secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, which uses an artificial bag with optic capture (i.e., ABC technique) in patients with IOL dislocation.Methods:This is a retrospective, noncomparative, and interventional case series that reveals the results of secondary IOL implantation using an artificial bag with optic capture in four cases of IOL dislocation. All patients underwent the abovementioned surgery and were followed up for at least 6 months.Results:The best-corrected visual acuity of patients ranged from 20/30 to 20/20. The IOL of all patients showed no tilting or decentration with normal intraocular pressure.Conclusion:We believe that this method produces satisfactory results and will be especially beneficial to retinal surgeons for the management of patients with IOL dislocation.
