Overview

This study is a comparison of the surgical techniques and postoperative outcome between the two intrascleral IOL fixation techniques: Yamane technique versus the 4-flanged technique.

The main objectives are postoperative lens tilt, duration of surgery, intra- and postoperative complication rates and scleral integrity around the flanges.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Necessity for IOL (re)fixation in the absence of capsular support
  • willing to give informed consent and follow-up the duration of study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Anatomical or other contraindications for suture less IOL fixation, such as presence of a trabeculectomy bleb or scleromalacia
  • active inflammatory diseases of the eye
