SIMPLE REFIXATION OF A DISLOCATED HAPTIC OF FLANGED INTRAOCULAR LENS USING A 25-GAUGE NEEDLE
View through CrossRef
Purpose:
To report the development of a novel, simple-to-use technique for the salvage of a haptic of dislocated flanged intraocular lens during a retinal detachment surgery.
Methods:
A 25-gauge regular-wall needle was prepared and threaded by the dislocated flanged haptic before the flanged haptic was heated and enlarged by low-temperature cautery.
Results:
The dislocated flanged haptic was probably the result of too small of a diameter of the previously flanged haptic and was triggered by scleral indentation. The rescue technique required only a 25-gauge regular-wall needle to conduct the conventional procedure of flanged haptic intraocular lens fixation before being enlarged by low-temperature cautery. The intraocular lens remained centered and stable at a 3-month postoperative follow-up examination.
Conclusion:
The application of a 25-gauge needle in the salvage of a haptic of dislocated flanged intraocular lens is simple and effective without the need for trimming the flanged tip.
