Abstract

Objective To study the Surgical treatment of subluxated lens by intraocular lens(IOL) implantation shift to an earlier time replacing capsular tension ring(CTR) during phacoemulsification.Methods 17 eyes with subluxated lens was performed by IOL implantation shift to an earlier time replacing CTR during phacoemulsification.The visual acuity,the position of IOL,and the postoperative complications were observed and analyzed.Results All 17 eyes received surgery successfully.After operation,15 lens(88.24%) were on the right position and only 2 lens(11.76%)were slightly tilting.Best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) with all 17 eyes postorerativelly improved significantly compared to preoperation(χ2 = 4.85,P 0.05): 6 eyes over 0.8,6 eyes with 0.4~0.7,3 eyes with 0.1~0.3,2 eyes under 0.1.There were no serious complications during or after the operation.Conclusion It is safe and efficient to surgery of subluxated lens by intraocular lens implantation shift to an earlier time replacing capsular tension ring during phacoemulsification.
