Secondary Intraocular Lens

Abstract: Secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation has evolved over the past few decades. Several new techniques, lens options, and materials now exist. Careful patient selection is important to determine the optimal secondary IOL technique. Intraocular lens placement in the capsular bag is the most ideal followed by sulcus placement. However, the best option when no capsular support exists in an aphakic patient remains unclear. Surgeons should be aware of contraindications for each technique; however, there are se… Show more

“…However, both the sutureless Yamane technique and lens insertion and fixation of the enVista MX60 IOL are known to be technically difficult and therefore may not be the first choice in a trainee-performed procedure. 31 , 32 Additionally, the Yamane technique is known to cause postoperative complications such as lens decentration and tilt. Due to the four eyelets on the Akreos AO60 IOL, it is relatively easy to center the lens during insertion and there is a lower risk of lens tilt compared to other techniques.…”
