Show Description +
Beeran Meghpara, MD, introduces a complex case in which a patient with a history of myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia underwent refractive lens exchange at another facility. A few days after the procedure, the patient developed endophthalmitis, was treated with multiple injections of intravitreal antibiotics, and was referred for IOL repositioning. On examination, Dr. Meghpara noted a toric IOL with the inferior haptic tilted out of the bag, with extensive synechiae between the iris and the IOL-capsular bag complex. He walks through his approach to the case to reposition the lens to prevent rotation and maintain toricity.
