Abstract
- Supplemental Digital Content is Available in the Text. Dislocated Crystalens is amenable to scleral suture repositioning using a well-established technique. Purpose: To present a surgical technique that allows rescue (repositioning) of a dislocated Crystalens model intraocular lens using scleral sutures. Methods: The surgical technique is described with supplemental video. Results: The technique was used in one patient with 3 months of follow-up information. The intraocular lens was well-positioned, and the visual acuity is 20/20, without adverse events. Conclusion: Scleral suture techniques for repositioning of the Crystalens offer a suitable alternative to intraocular lens exchange. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
