AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focuses on the effectiveness of the iris-claw "Artizan" intraocular lens (IOL) for patients with lens dislocation and glaucoma.
  • The IOL was implanted in 16 eyes through a 5 mm corneal incision, securing it to the iris stroma, which made the procedure less traumatic.
  • Results showed that this IOL model leads to good visual outcomes and does not worsen intraocular pressure in glaucoma patients.

Article Abstract

The results of iris-claw intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in patients with lens dislocation, deficiency of capsule support in combination with glaucoma are presented. Iris-claw "Artizan" IOL was used in 16 eyes. IOL was implanted through 5 mm corneal incision into the posterior chamber with haptic fixated to iris stroma. Implantation of this IOL model is minimally traumatic, provides favorable visual outcome and does not lead to intraocular pressure decompensation in patients with glaucoma.
