Clinical Outcomes of Secondary Intraocular Lens Scleral Fixation after Acute Secondary Angle-Closure Caused by Lens Subluxation

Key Points

To evaluate clinical outcomes of scleral fixation of intraocular lenses in cases of angle-closure due to lens subluxation.
Conducted a 2-year follow-up
Evaluated phacoemulsification and scleral fixation techniques
Assessed intraocular pressure (IOP) and anatomical status
Achieved stable IOP control over 2 years
Restored eye anatomy in severe cases
Notable improvement in patients with extensive zonular dialysis

Abstract

In eyes with lens subluxation-associated secondary angle-closure, phacoemulsification with secondary IOL scleral fixation resulted in stable IOP control and anatomical restoration over a 2-year follow-up period in severe cases with extensive zonular dialysis.
