Dr. Berrocal uses 25G instrumentation to correct this case of a traumatically dislocated IOL. The haptics are sutured to the iris to stabilize the lens, after which the periphery is checked to confirm the absence of vitreous breaks.

Hello Dr. Berrocal and thank you very much for the video. In your experience, is this technique suitable for a 3 piece silicone lens?

What kind of IOL is there in the eye? Is this procedure suitable for a one-piece acrylic IOL?

this is a pmma iol, the technique works well also on 3 piece acrylics,i have used it on a partially dislocated one piece acrylic to suture one haptic.

Your iris sutured IOL is excellent. You mentioned the importance of not leaving a 'cats eye' pupil. This has occurred in a couple of cases I have done. What are your tips on avoiding this and do you think lens optic size is a factor.

The cats eye pupil occurs if one grabs a long area of iris with the needle or also if one is suturing the edge of the iris to a haptic more near the periphery. Sometime it is inevitable and not a real problem particularly in pigmented irises.
