30-gauge needle technique for dislocated intraocular lens: novel surgical technique

A new, simple and effective technique is described, using a 30-gauge needle that offers many advantages to repositioning of dislocated single-piece posterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) in eyes without sufficient capsular support. This technique may shorten the surgical time and minimize surgical trauma. The data regarding treatment modalities available for dislocated IOLs in eyes without sufficient capsular support remain scarce, thus reporting new surgical techniques is beneficial.
