Efficacy of haptic sutured in-the-bag intraocular lens for intraocular lens-capsule complex stability: a comparison of three insertion methods.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To evaluate the efficacy and stability of haptic sutured in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) in eyes with zonular instability.

Methods

A total 60 eyes of 60 patients were included in this retrospective cohort study. Postoperative stability in three groups [haptic sutured IOL in the bag, IOL in the bag insertion with haptics oriented toward areas of zonulysis, IOL with capsular tension ring (CTR) in the bag insertion] were compared according to the IOL insertion methods. To evaluate the IOL stability, the changes of anterior chamber depth (ACD), refraction, contraction of anterior continuous curvilinear capsulotomy (CCC) area, and tilt of IOL were compared.

Results

There was no significant difference in change of ACD (-0.04±0.01 mm in group of haptic sutured IOL, -0.
