Long-Term Outcomes after Surgery for Late In-The-Bag Intraocular Lens Dislocation: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Participants: Late In-The-Bag Intraocular Lens Dislocation

• n=104

Intervention:

Group 1: IOL repositioning by scleral suturing
Group 2: IOL exchange with retropupillary fixation of an iris claw IOL

There was no significant difference in the mean corrected distance visual acuity in the repositioning group vs exchange group.

A CDVA of 20/40 or better was achieved by 76% of all patients.

The rate of cystoid macular oedema was 12% in the repositioning and 15% in the exchange group.

There were no cases of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment.
