Scleral fixation and iris fixation are common intraocular lens (IOL) implantation techniques performed because of zonulopathy. There is a lack of consensus regarding their comparative efficacy and safety. This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety outcomes after scleral-fixated (SF) vs iris-fixated (IF) IOL implantation or fixation in adults. A systematic literature search was conducted on Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL from 2005 to 2020. 785 eyes from 2 randomized controlled trials and 9 nonrandomized studies were included. There was no significant difference in the mean corrected distance visual acuity at the final follow-up ( P = .52) or absolute change in spherical equivalent ( P = .88) between SF IOL and IF IOL implantation. The incidence of vitreous hemorrhage was significantly higher in the SF IOL group (risk ratio = 3.66, 95% CI, 1.16-11.55, P = .03). There were no differences in visual acuity and refractive outcomes between SF IOL and IF IOL implantation or fixation. Trade-offs in complications exist between the 2 techniques.

Purpose: To analyze the latest annual trends in immediate sequential bilateral cataract surgery (ISBCS) and delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery (DSBCS) among patients with bilateral cataracts in Korea, and to identify the factors influencing the choice of surgery and the outcomes associated with ISBCS and DSBCS.

Methods: This retrospective, nationwide cohort study included all patients aged 65 and older who were covered by the Korean National Health Insurance and underwent ISBCS or DSBCS from 2016 to 2021. The study recorded yearly numbers of ISBCS and DSBCS procedures, the interval between surgeries in DSBCS cases, patient demographics, types of implanted intraocular lenses (IOLs), and the incidence of cystoid macular edema and endophthalmitis following ISBCS or DSBCS.

Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Eye and ENT Hospital, Shanghai Medical College, Fudan University, 83 Fenyang Road, Shanghai, 200031, China.

Purpose: To describe the clinical characteristics of glaucoma-related adverse events (GRAE) after pediatric cataract surgery. More importantly, to identify the factors associated with the time of GRAE onset and the preferred anti-glaucomatous surgical procedure for this disease.

Methods: Hospitalized medical records of patients who developed GRAE, which include glaucoma and glaucoma suspect, after pediatric cataract surgery (surgical age ≤ 14 years) between 1994 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed.

Objective: Toric intraocular lens implantation has been used to correct corneal astigmatism during cataract surgery. The study aimed to compare the visual outcomes between manual vs markerless toric intraocular lens implantation in astigmatic correction.

Methods: The medical records of patients at American Eye Center who underwent phacoemulsification by multiple surgeons with insertion of monofocal or multifocal toric lenses via manual marking and markerless method from 2010-2019 were reviewed.

Objective: To assess the visual quality in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) complicated by cataracts after cataract phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and goniosynechialysis, and to explore the relationship between pupil size and visual quality.

Methods: A retrospective, non-randomized study was conducted, including 65 PACG patients (75 eyes) who underwent cataract surgery with IOL implantation and goniosynechialysis from July 2021 to June 2023, as well as a control group of cataract-only patients. Visual quality was evaluated using objective and subjective methods at least 3 months postoperatively.
