Thank you for your suggest. I don't know if the posterior possition could to make difficult the insertion of IOL Verisayze. Are you used l scleral tunnel for insert this king of lOl.

I would suggest using a frown scleral tunnel incision to remove the IOL, rather than the limbal ones made. Advantage being that there no need to suture these frown incisions. Nice idea about using the cutter to lift the IOL.
