Abstract

Abstract:

The eye diseases such as ocular trauma, lens dislocation, and primary or secondary weak suspensory ligaments, it is not possible to implant an artificial intraocular lens normally within the capsule. Based on this, intraocular lens fixation surgery becomes necessary. The surgical approaches include anterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, iris-fixated intraocular lens implantation, and scleral-fixated intraocular lens implantation. Postoperative complications include corneal decompensation, high intraocular pressure, secondary glaucoma, macular cystic edema, and intraocular bleeding. The current clinical applications and complication of various intraocular lens implantation surgeries without capsular support, combined with a review of the latest research findings for each surgical technique were reviewed in this paper.

Key words: Capsular deficiency, Surgical methods, Intraocular lens, Complication, Indications
