Combination of capsular tension ring and capsular tension segment for the management of lens coloboma >4 clock hours.

ABSTRACT: Lens colobomas extending more than 4 clock hours and causing visual impairment require lens extraction along with capsular support devices with scleral fixation for adequate centration of the capsular bag and for prevention of capsular fornix aspiration with inadvertent extension of zonular dialysis intraoperatively. In this case series, we describe a technique for the management of isolated lens colobomas involving 4-5 clock hours by clear lens extraction and intraocular lens implantation using a combination of a capsular tension ring with a capsular tension segment (CTS) for the centration and stability of the capsular bag. Hoffman's corneoscleral pocket and half-bow sliding knot technique were used for scleral fixation of the CTS.

A novel technique for the surgical management of intraocular lens-capsular bag-capsular tension ring complex dislocation.

Project description:The present study describes a surgical technique for the management of complex dislocation and subluxation of the intraocular lens (IOL)-capsular bag (CB)-capsular tension ring (CTR) complex. During the procedure, one double-curved suture was inserted through the sclera into the posterior chamber, passing through the anterior capsules and then into the anterior chamber. The suture lines were pulled out from above and below the IOL-CB-CTR complex and a knot was tied 1 mm away from the corneoscleral incision. The IOL-CB-CTR complex was repositioned by adjusting the suture length. This novel method does not require explanting of the original IOL, allowing the IOL-CB-CTR complex to be immobilized in a simple and effective way.

Early lens aspiration with posterior chamber intraocular lens and capsular tension ring in microspherophakia to avoid lens-induced complications.

Project description:PurposeTo report the surgical outcome of early lens aspiration, posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL), and capsular tension ring (CTR) in a case series of microspherophakia (MSP) and secondary glaucoma.MethodsCase series of 18 eyes of MSP cases presented with lenticular myopia and secondary glaucoma that underwent early lens aspiration, PC IOL and CTR by one ophthalmologist. Baseline, long-term postoperative outcomes and complications were documented.ResultsAll cases underwent successful surgery with lens aspiration PC IOL implantation and CTR insertion without intraoperative complications. One of the 18 cases was a delayed referral which had broad anterior synechiae and following lens aspiration developed corneal decompensation. In one eye, CTR implantation was not possible hence, lens aspiration with scleral fixation (SF) of 3 piece IOL was performed (excluded from the analysis). Overall there was an improvement in visual acuity (from 0.3 ± 0.1 to 0.2 ± 0.2 LogMar, P = 0.006), intraocular pressure (IOP), and most notably, deepening of the anterior chamber. Some cases required subsequent glaucoma surgery to control IOP. After a long duration of follow-up, all cases had stable capsular lens complex and no capsular phimosis.ConclusionEarly Lens aspiration with CTR and PCIOL alone in MSP with lens subluxation has a significant impact on the patient's quality of vision, deepening the anterior chamber and preventing complications or poor outcomes. In addition, good capsular-lens complex stability and absence of capsular phimosis or phacodonesis on long-term follow-up were obtained.

Capsular tension ring assisted phacoemulsification of morgagnian cataract.

Project description:PurposeTo describe a novel technique of phacoemulsification in morgagnian cataract using capsular tension ring (CTR).MethodsThis was a retrospective, non-comparative, clinical interventional study. Patients with hypermature morgagnian cataract who had undergone CTR-assisted phacoemulsification were included in the study. After capsulorhexis, CTR was inserted in a clockwise manner to stabilize the capsular bag in each case. Phacoemulsification was then performed using either horizontal chopping or vertical chopping. We have used the CTR in these cases without any obvious lens subluxation in order to perform safe emulsification of the nuclear pieces in the capsular bag. We have performed the procedure successfully in eleven eyes with hypermature morgagnian cataract.ResultsThe mean corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) improved from 2.62 ± 0.25 Log MAR to 0.35 ± 0.28 Log MAR at 3 months postoperatively (P = 0.00008). Total nine out of 11 patients gained CDVA of 20/40 or better at 3 months postoperatively. No intraoperative complications such as posterior capsular rupture, zonular dialysis, iris trauma, vitreous loss were noted. The mean endothelial cell loss was 148.82 ± 41.52 cells/mm2 after 3 months of surgery.ConclusionThe main culprit for intraoperative complications during phacoemulsification in a morgagnian cataract is the vulnerable capsular bag. Following insertion of a CTR after capsulorhexis, the bag becomes stable and the subsequent steps of the surgery become uneventful, thereby, preventing any further complications.

Effects of capsular tension ring on surgical outcomes of premium intraocular lens in patients with suspected zonular weakness.

Project description:PURPOSE:To assess the influence of capsular tension ring (CTR) on surgical outcomes of toric and multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) in eyes at high risk of zonular instability. METHODS:Fifty-five eyes of 43 patients who had undergone phacoemulsification and IOL implantation were included in the analysis. They had some risk of zonular weakness, such as pseudoexfoliation, shallow anterior chamber, high myopia, and phacodonesis, or were judged to have unstable zonules during surgery. Toric IOL was implanted in 9 eyes with CTR and 22 eyes without CTR, while multifocal IOL was used in 9 eyes with CTR and 15 eyes without CTR. Manifest refraction, refractive astigmatism, visual acuity, and degree of IOL decentration and tilt measured using swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography were analyzed. Axis misalignment of toric IOLs were also evaluated. RESULTS:In toric IOLs, co-implantation of CTR significantly reduced decentration and axis misalignment of IOL, resulting in better uncorrected and corrected visual acuity after surgery. In multifocal IOLs, combined use of CTR significantly prevented IOL tilt, leading to better intermediate visual acuity. Spherical equivalent and residual astigmatism were not significantly affected by the use of CTR. CONCLUSIONS:CTR reduces decentration and axis misalignment of toric IOL and tilt of multifocal IOL, achieving improvement of postoperative visual function in eyes with suspected zonular instability.

Effect of Co-Implantation of a Capsular Tension Ring on Clinical Outcomes after Cataract Surgery with Monofocal Intraocular Lens Implantation.

Project description:PurposeThe objective was to evaluate the effect of co-implantation of a preloaded capsular tension ring (CTR) and aberration-free monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) on clinical outcomes and visual quality after cataract surgery.Materials and methodsPatients who underwent cataract surgery were randomized into two groups that were implanted with a CTR and IOL (group 1, 26 eyes) or an IOL only (group 2, 26 eyes). At 1 and 3 months after surgery, visual acuity, refractive errors, refractive prediction errors, ocular aberrations, and modulation transfer function (MTF) were analyzed. At 3 months postoperatively, anterior chamber depth (ACD) and contrast sensitivity were evaluated.ResultsGroup 1 showed greater hyperopic shift, which caused the refractive prediction error at 3 months after surgery to be significantly different between the two groups (p=0.049). Differences in ACD between the preoperative and postoperative periods tended to be greater in group 1 than in group 2. At 3 months postoperatively, internal MTF values at 20, 25, and 30 cycles per degree were significantly better in group 1 than in group 2 (p=0.034, 0.017, and 0.017, respectively). Contrast sensitivity showed comparable results at almost all spatial frequencies between the groups.ConclusionRegarding visual acuity and quality, both groups showed comparable results. Co-implantation of a CTR and aberration-free monofocal IOL was associated with hyperopic refractive outcomes. Surgeons should consider the position of the IOL when planning co-implantation of a CTR and IOL.

Cyclodialysis cleft repair and cataract management by phacoemulsification combined with internal tamponade using modified capsular tension ring insertion.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the surgical outcomes of cyclodialysis cleft repair and cataract management by phacoemulsification combined with internal tamponade using a modified capsular tension ring (MCTR) compared with direct cyclopexy.MethodsThe preoperative and postoperative characteristics of patients with cyclodialysis clefts who underwent surgery via insertion of an MCTR into the ciliary sulcus (MCTR group; 16 patients, 16 eyes) or direct cyclopexy (DC group; 16 patients, 16 eyes) were recorded.ResultsThe cyclodialysis extended over 2.6 ± 1.9 clock hours in the MCTR group and 3.5 ± 1.8 clock hours in the DC group (P = 0.094). Postoperatively, the IOP was not significantly different between the MCTR and DC groups (12.9 ± 3.7 mmHg vs. 13.8 ± 6.2 mmHg, P = 0.985); the logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution BCVA was better (0.1 ± 0.2 vs. 1.0 ± 0.9, P < 0.001), and the anterior chamber depth was greater (3.87 ± 0.40 mm vs. 2.59 ± 0.58 mm, P < 0.001) in the MCTR group than in the DC group. Compared with the preoperative parameters, the postoperative BCVA, IOP, and anterior chamber depth values were significantly improved in the MCTR group (P < 0.05), whereas the BCVA showed no significant improvement postoperatively in the DC group (P = 0.174). Logistic regression revealed no significant risk factors for successful IOP control or BCVA improvement.ConclusionPhacoemulsification combined with internal tamponade using MCTR insertion into the ciliary sulcus is a safe and minimally invasive method for effectively closing cyclodialysis clefts and managing cataract.

Implantation of a capsular tension ring during cataract surgery attenuates predicted remodeling of the post-surgical lens capsule along the visual axis.

Project description:Introduction: Cataract surgery permanently alters the mechanical environment of the lens capsule by placing a hole in the anterior portion and implanting an intraocular lens (IOL) that has a very different geometry from the native lens. We hypothesized that implant configuration and mechanical interactions with the post-surgical lens capsule play a key role in determining long-term fibrotic remodeling. Methods: We developed the first finite element-growth and remodeling (FE-G&R) model of the post-surgical lens capsule to evaluate how implantation of an IOL with and without a capsular tension ring (CTR) impacted evolving lens capsule mechanics and associated fibrosis over time after cataract surgery. Results: Our models predicted that implantation of a CTR with the IOL into the post-surgical lens capsule reduced the mechanical perturbation, thickening, and stiffening along the visual axis in both the remnant anterior and posterior portions compared to implantation of the IOL alone. Discussion: These findings align with patient studies and suggest that implantation of a CTR with the IOL during routine cataract surgery would attenuate the incidence of visually-debilitating capsule fibrosis. Our work demonstrates that use of such modeling techniques has substantial potential to aid in the design of better surgical strategies and implants.

Spontaneous Late Intraocular Lens and Capsule Tension Ring Dislocation.

Project description:In this report, three cases with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) and advanced age with spontaneous intraocular lens (IOL) and capsule tension ring (CTR) dislocation were presented. All of our cases experienced progressive vision loss without an episode of strenuous physical activity, trauma, or any other ocular disease. Spontaneous dislocation was observed 2.5 to 8 years after uneventful phacosurgery. Each patient underwent complete IOL and CTR removal combined with anterior chamber IOL implantation. No complications were noticed during follow-up. As a result, capsule tension ring does not prevent late IOL dislocation after uncomplicated phacosurgery in the presence of PEX. Therefore, close follow-up is essential for patients with PEX.

Modified sewing machine technique for iridodialysis repair, intraocular lens relocation, iris coloboma repair, Cionni ring fixation, and scleral-fixated intraocular lens.

Project description:The purpose of this study is to report the modification of sewing machine technique for iris dialysis repair (MSMT) and its usefulness in managing other conditions such as intraocular lens (IOL) subluxation, iris coloboma, Cionni ring for zonular dialysis, and for scleral-fixated IOL. MSMT was based on sewing machine principle using a prethreaded 26G/30G needle with prolene suture for minimally invasive iris dialysis repair in a closed chamber manner. So far, eight patients (trauma - 3, surgical complication - 5) underwent this procedure. This technique is further modified to extend its use for IOL relocation - 2, iris coloboma repair - 3, and Cionni ring fixation for zonular dialysis - 2, SFIOL - 5 patients. All 20 patients had good visual recovery and cosmetic outcome with minimal morbidity. To conclude, MSMT offers cost -effective, minimally invasive, easy to learn procedure with a potential to tackle several problems related with cataract surgery and iris defects, which even an average cataract surgeon can learn to perform when required. Further comparative studies with conventional techniques with large sample size are required to standardize this procedure.

Forceps-assisted, 10-0 monofilament nylon, suture-guided capsular tension ring insertion in subluxated cataracts.

Project description:Capsular tension ring (CTR) and iris hooks have proved to be useful devices in cataract surgery in cases of zonular weakness and dialysis. We would like to describe the use of monofilament 10-0 nylon (MFN)- guided CTR insertion in a subluxated cataractous lens. Here, the MFN is passed through the distal trailing eyelet of the CTR (simple or Morcher's depending on the size of the defect and subluxation) for controlled insertion of the distal eyelet of the CTR beneath the anterior capsulorhexis margin and safe retrieval of CTR in case of an iatrogenic posterior capsular tear during CTR insertion or phacoemulsification.
