Abstract

Purpose : Glued intraocular lens (IOL) procedure in eyes with inadequate capsule.

Results: The postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in eyes with the rigid glued IOL was 0.38 ± 0.27. There was a significant improvement in BCVA (P = 0.000). The mean postoperative BCVA in foldable glued IOL was 0.39 ± 0.29. The second surgeries in rigid glued IOL included IOL repositioning (2.2%), haptic repositioning (1%), conjunctival peritomy closure (0.8%), posterior segment surgery (1.2%) and IOL explantation (0.4%). Surgical modifications included glued IOL scaffold and vertical glued IOL.

Summary: Glued IOL and its surgical modifications showed good visual outcome with minimal complications in the recent review of its results and complications profile.
