ABSTRACT

Background: Aim of the study was to analyze the postoperative visual outcomes, complication rate of fibrin glue-assisted, suture-less posterior chamber (PC) intraocular lens (IOL) implantation technique in eyes with inadequate capsule support at a tertiary eye care hospital.Methods: This is a retrospective, nonrandomized case series. This study analyzes 50 eyes which underwent PC-IOL implantation by fibrin glue-assisted, suture-less technique. All patients who had IOL implants by the fibrin glue-assisted PC-IOL technique from 2017 to 2019 were included in the study. Intra- and post-operative complications were analyzed. The postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was evaluated and recorded at the end of 6 months.Results: Mean age of distribution are 42.94 years in glued IOL implantation. Among 50 cases 30 are males and 20 are females. There is significant difference in BCVA between preoperatively and postoperatively, p value for pre-operative to post-operative vision in glued intraocular lens group is <0.0001 i.e. there is definite improvement in vision  in glued intraocular group. BCVA ≥6/24 was 18 (48%) in Glued IOL subjects.Conclusions: Glued IOL implantation is a feasible option in rehabilitating patients with aphakia without adequate capsular support.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To assess the role of surgical peripheral iridectomy (PI) in preventing iris-related complications associated with glued intraocular lens (GIOL) surgery in children with bilateral ectopia lentis. Methods: Nonrandomized interventional case series of 34 eyes of 17 children (<15 years of age) who underwent pars plana lensectomy (PPL) and GIOL surgery between January 2013 and December 2016. Eyes with surgical PI (January 2013–June 2015) were compared with those without surgical PI (July 2015–December 2016). The primary outcome measure of the role of surgical PI in GIOL surgery was to account for complications such as optic capture, secondary glaucoma, intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation, or repeat surgery. The secondary outcomes were changes in the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Results: The mean age at surgery was 8.8 years (range: 3.5–15 years). Surgical PI was conducted in 15 eyes. Among the 19 eyes without PI, 9 eyes had complications (optic capture –6; rise in IOP –4; IOL subluxation –4; repeat surgery –5). The complications were significantly less in the PI group, P = 0.02. There was a statistically significant improvement in BCVA (P = 0.0001) in all the patients. The mean presenting BCVA was 0.99 (±0.79) logMAR (Snellen ? 20/200) and post BCVA was 0.40 (±0.50) (Snellen ? 20/50). The mean preoperative refraction was ? 9 D (±8D) (range: ?5 D to ?23D) and postoperative was ?1 (±1.15) D. The mean follow-up was 25.4 months. Conclusion: Surgical PI along with GIOL surgery in children undergoing PPL is shown to reduce optic-capture-related complications.

ABSTRACT

We hereby describe the correct method to perform a “handshake technique” and easy transfer of haptics from one hand to another for glued intrascleral fixation of an intraocular lens (glued IOL). The procedure was implemented in 57 cases that necessitated the application of performing a glued IOL procedure and it resulted in an appropriate and easy externalization of haptic in all the cases. The surgeons’ positioning with reference to the scleral flap is an essential component and the surgeon should always be positioned perpendicular to the plane of scleral flaps and the plane of haptic maneuver. The surgeons who intend to perform glued IOL should adopt this technical point.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: To analyze the visual outcome of patients undergoing glue-assisted intrascleral fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) in the absence of posterior capsular support. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzes 25 eyes which underwent IOL implantation by the glued intrascleral fixation technique. The pre and post-operative uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), pre and post-operative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), IOL position, anterior chamber reaction and central macular thickness were assessed and recorded. Immediate and late post-operative complications were also recorded. Results: A total of 25 eyes of 22 patients were reviewed and analyzed over a period of one year. All eyes had a foldable three-piece IOL implanted. About 84% of the eyes had a gain of one or more lines, 12% had no gain, and 4% had a fall of three lines of BCVA on Snellen's visual chart, which was attributed to cystoid macular edema (CME). Postoperatively, there was a significant improvement in the UCVA (P < 0.05) and in the BCVA (P < 0.05). Postoperative complications included decentration in one case and vitritis with chronic macular edema in another case. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated well placed IOL with no tilt. Conclusion: Although the results of one year follow-up of glued intrascleral fixation are promising, long term studies are recommended.
