RISK FACTORS FOR PUPILLARY OPTIC CAPTURE FOLLOWING SUTURELESS FLANGED INTRAOCULAR LENS FIXATION FOR INTRAOCULAR LENS DISLOCATION
To identify risk factors for pupillary optic capture after sutureless flanged intraocular lens (IOL) fixation for IOL dislocation.
Methods:
This retrospective comparative study enrolled consecutive patients who underwent flanged IOL fixation using 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy. One hundred twenty-six eyes (126 patients) were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of pupillary optic capture. A swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography and a rotating Scheimpflug camera were used to analyze and compare surgical parameters, including axial length, anterior chamber depth, differences in scleral tunnel angle and length, and IOL tilt and decentration, between the two groups.
Results:
Compared with the nonpupillary optic capture group (106 eyes, 84.1%), the pupillary optic capture group (20 eyes, 15.9%) had larger differences in the nasal and temporal scleral tunnel angles and larger horizontal tilt (P
