Scleral Fixation of Plate-Haptic Lens in Absence of Capsular Support

Show Description +

Jamil Hasanov V., MD, discusses his preferred approach for IOL fixation in cases with inadequate capsular support. He prefers to use Hoffmann scleral pockets because the procedure is faster than traditional flap procedure and is associated with less induced astigmatism. This video illustrates step-by-step instructions for a modified technique of trans-scleral suturing of a plate-haptic foldable IOL that is introduced into the eye with an injector.
