ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report 12-month visual outcomes, incidence of intraocular pressure (IOP) changes and postoperative complications after pars plana vitrectomy with retropupillary implantation of an iris claw intraocular lens (IOL) in aphakic eyes after complicated cataract surgery and eyes with a dislocation of the IOL.METHODS:
This is a retrospective analysis of eyes undergoing implantation of an iris claw IOL combined with pars plana vitrectomy from 1st of January 2009 until 30th of June 2018 after complicated cataract extraction with capsular loss (Group A) or dislocation of an IOL (Group B). Corrected distance visual acuity was analyzed in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) units, IOP was recorded in mmHg.RESULTS:
Eyes in Group A (n = 49) improved from a preoperative median visual acuity of 0.523 logMAR (Snellen 20/65) to 0.201 logMAR (Snellen 20/30), P < 0.01. Eyes in Group B (n = 126) showed stable median visual acuity, preoperative 0.301 logMAR (Snellen 20/40) versus postoperative 0.222 logMAR (Snellen 20/30), P > 0.05. During 12 months in Group A, IOP >21 mmHg occurred in 9 (18.4%) eyes; no eye had an IOP <6 mmHg. In Group B, IOP >21 mmHg occurred in 15 (11.9%) eyes, IOP <6 mmHg in 5 (4%) cases. None of the eyes in Group A and B had IOP >21 mmHg or <6 mmHg at 12 months follow-up.CONCLUSION:
The retropupillary implantation of an iris claw IOL with pars plana vitrectomy provides adequate visual rehabilitation and seems to be safe in IOP changes.
