Bimanual anterior segment revision surgery for anterior capsule contraction syndrome associated with anterior flexion of intraocular lens haptics.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To report the incidence of anterior capsule contraction syndrome (ACCS) and to present a novel minimally invasive bimanual technique for anterior segment revision surgery associated with ACCS with anterior flexion of the intraocular lens haptics.

Methods

A consecutive cohort of 268 eyes of 161 patients undergoing phacoemulsification and implantation of the same type of hydrophilic acrylic aspheric intraocular lens cohort were analysed and a novel technique of minimally invasive bimanual technique for anterior segment revision surgery is described.

Results

We identified four eyes (1.5%) of three patients with advanced ACCS. Successful restoration of a clear visual axis with minimal induction of astigmatism and rapid visual rehabilitation was achieved in all four cases.

Conclusion

This technique is a safe and minimally invasive alternative to laser or vitrector-cut capsulotomy to restore a clear visual axis. In cases of advanced ACCS, it offers the option for haptic reposition or amputation.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the reproducibility of magnitude of postoperative IOL rotation following implantation of a toric intraocular lens (IOL) with modified haptics, in comparison with a Proof-of-Concept (POC) study of prototype IOLs featuring the same haptic design.Patients and methodsA post-market, prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label clinical study was conducted. TECNIS Toric II IOL (Johnson & Johnson Vision, Irvine, CA, USA, Models ZCU150 to 600) were implanted in 125 subjects and evaluated at 1-day and 1-week postoperatively. An objective photographic method was used to determine postoperative IOL rotation. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), postoperative astigmatism, and surgeon satisfaction were also assessed. Rotation data were compared to the POC study in which two prototype non-toric monofocal IOLs, one with the same haptic design as Model ZCU, were studied.ResultsMean absolute rotation was 0.82° ± 1.0° and 0.84° ± 0.92°at 1-day and 1-week visits, respectively. The percentage of eyes with ≤5° of absolute rotation was 98.9% and 99.5% at the 1-day and 1-week visits, respectively. The magnitude of rotation was similar to the POC study prototype IOLs. At 1-week, mean monocular UCDVA was 0.026 ± 0.135 (~20/21) logMAR and mean residual manifest refractive cylinder was 0.30 D ± 0.35 D. The mean signed axis difference (postoperative minus operative) of the TECNIS Toric II IOL was 0.23° ± 1.27° at 1-day and -0.07° ± 1.25° at 1-week, indicating a clockwise drift. At 1-week, surgeons were very satisfied or satisfied with overall clinical outcomes and rotational stability in 98% of implanted eyes.ConclusionThe TECNIS Toric II IOL, with frosted, squared haptics, demonstrated low magnitude of postoperative IOL rotation, excellent uncorrected distance vision, and minimal residual astigmatism. The POC study design was supported, demonstrating that prototype non-toric monofocal IOLs can predict clinical performance of toric IOLs with the same haptic design.
