A male patient, 63 years of age, presented with dislocation of a retropupillary fixated iris claw lens due to nasal haptic disenclavation. During re-enclavation the intraocular lens dislocated again. To avoid further dislocation, both superior fingers of the haptics were pushed through the iris tissue to achieve more stable support of the haptic ends. This method of fixation appeared to be well tolerated.

A Comparative Analysis of Carlevale IOL Versus Artisan IOL Implantation Using a Scleral Tunnel Incision Technique.
J Clin Med
November 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, University of Muenster Medical Center, 48149 Muenster, Germany.
The aim of this retrospective study was to compare the surgical and refractive outcomes using the Carlevale IOL (FIL SSF; SOLEKO) with those of the retropupillary-fixated Artisan IOL (Aphakia Model 205; OPHTEC), implanted through a 6 mm sclerocorneal tunnel incision in both groups. This study included 51 consecutive eyes (25 Carlevale and 26 Artisan IOLs). Due to complex preoperative conditions (e.

Purpose: To compare refractive outcomes of the foldable intraocular lens sutureless scleral fixated sutureless (Carlevale® FIL-SSF) with the iris-claw lens (Artisan®).
Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive patients who underwent a FIL-SSF implantation or an iris-claw implantation between January 2020 and November 2022 in the ophthalmology departments of Hospices Civils de Lyon (France).
Results: A total of 271 eyes from 265 patients were included: 96 eyes in the FIL-SSF group and 175 eyes in the iris-claw group.
Iris Fixation for Intraocular Lens Dislocation: Relocation with Iris Suture Versus Exchange to Sutureless Iris Claw IOL.

Ophthalmology Clinic, Sant' Anna Hospital, 25127 Brescia, Italy.
: To compare the clinical outcome of suture and sutureless iris fixation techniques for dislocated intraocular lenses (IOLs). : Retrospective cohort study including patients who underwent surgery for late IOL dislocation over a 10-year period. IOL repositioning was achieved either by suturing the original IOL to the iris using the Siepser slipknot technique or by replacing it with a retropupillary sutureless iris claw IOL.

Helsinki Retina Research Group, University of Helsinki, Finland.
Topic: To evaluate the complication rates of different IOL placement methods in adults with inadequate capsular bag support.
Clinical Relevance: The surgical correction of inadequate capsular bag support for the intraocular lens (IOL) harbors several challenges, and there is a wide-range of surgical procedures.
Methods: For the purpose of this meta-analysis, surgical methods were grouped based on the location of IOL placement: (i) AC placement, (ii) iris fixation, which included prepupillary or retropupillary placement of an iris-claw IOL, or iris suturing of an IOL (iii) scleral fixation, which included scleral sutured and sutureless techniques.
Outcomes of retropupillary iris claw lens implantation in patients with intraocular lens dislocation and low (less than 1000 cells/mm) corneal endothelial cell density.

Background: Posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation is a common complication of cataract surgery. Dislocated IOLs often require surgical intervention due to the potentially severe risks of leaving this condition untreated. If a patient with extremely low corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) presents with IOL dislocation, the surgeon faces a crucial dilemma of choosing the most optimal surgical treatment option.
