  • Title: Spontaneous subluxation of iris-claw aphakic intraocular lens causing complications in two children.
    Author: Ong HS, Subash M, Adams GG.
    Journal: J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus; 2012 Oct 09; 49 Online():e55-8. PubMed ID: 23061652.
    Abstract:
    Many surgeons consider implantation of iris-claw intraocular lenses a favorable option for pediatric aphakic eyes with poor capsular support. The authors present two children who had spontaneous subluxation of such lenses resulting in complications that required explantation. These cases highlight the potential sight-threatening complications of such intraocular lenses.
