  • Title: Transscleral suture technique for fixation of a dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lens.
    Author: Han QH, Wang L, Hui YN.
    Journal: J Cataract Refract Surg; 2004 Jul; 30(7):1396-400. PubMed ID: 15210213.
    Abstract:
    We describe a double-loop-knot technique for repositioning a displaced posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) that facilitates placement of scleral fixation sutures around the haptic for IOL stabilization. The technique minimizes the intraocular manipulations necessary to create a suture loop around the haptic of a dislocated IOL as well as scleral incisions required for IOL exchange.
