Abstract

The article discusses the advantages of a scleral tunnel-glued fixation technique for slipped intraocular lenses (IOL) over that of alternative fixation techniques. Topics covered include the glue's purpose of initial fixation and healing and the resulting fixation due to the haptic in the scleral tunnel, and the technique's need of coaxial micro instruments and ease of execution with an assistant. Also noted is the procedure's applicability to patients who are at risk of lens dislocation.

Abstract

The article discusses the importance of selecting presbyopic patients and of following preoperative protocols to maximize successful outcomes for the extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) option. Topics covered include patient selection and counseling criteria, and the need to convey that glasses may be needed for some tasks and some night-vision symptoms may be experienced. Also noted is the recommendation to wait a few weeks after EDOF placement to evaluate initial outcomes.
