Modified Flanged Intrascleral Fixation of Intraocular Lens for Vitreoretinal Surgeons.

The surgeons have modified the flanged intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation technique initially described by Yamane et al. to avoid manipulation of the IOL within the anterior chamber. Their technique involves securing the IOL haptics into receiving needles within the posterior segment. Advantages of this technique include repositioning and securing a dislocated three-piece IOL to the sclera without removing the lens or creating a large corneal incision.
