Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of two methods for attaching intraocular lenses (IOLs) during surgery: Gore-Tex sutures versus flanged intrascleral haptic fixation (FIHF).
- The study involved 79 eyes from 72 patients, with a follow-up period averaging about 16 months, and both techniques showed similar improvements in visual acuity by three months post-surgery.
- Results indicated that there was no significant difference in visual outcomes, refractive targets, or complication rates between the two fixation methods.
