A new capsular hook technique safely manages intraocular lens-capsular bag complex subluxation. This method offers improved IOL stability and patient satisfaction compared to traditional transscleral fixation.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Intraocular lens-capsular bag complex (IOLCBC) subluxation can compromise visual outcomes.
  • Conventional transscleral IOL fixation carries risks and may not always preserve capsular integrity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a modified capsular hook technique for managing IOLCBC subluxation.
  • To compare the outcomes of this new technique with conventional transscleral IOL fixation.

Main Methods:

  • A modified capsular hook implantation technique was developed, utilizing polypropylene suture hooks from within the capsular bag.
  • Seventeen eyes with IOL-CBC subluxation were treated: 10 with the modified technique and 7 with conventional transscleral fixation.
  • Outcomes assessed included surgical duration, IOL decentration/tilt, higher order aberrations (HOAs), visual function, complications, and patient satisfaction at ≥6 months.

Main Results:

  • The capsular hook group demonstrated significantly shorter surgical duration and reduced IOL decentration and tilt compared to the transscleral fixation group (P < .05).
  • While corrected visual acuity and total HOAs were comparable, the capsular hook group showed lower internal HOAs and endothelial cell loss.
  • Patient-reported visual function and quality of vision were superior in the capsular hook group, with no cases of suture erosion or recurrent subluxation.

Conclusions:

  • The modified capsular hook technique is a safe, minimally invasive option for IOLCBC subluxation.
  • Preserving capsular integrity and enhancing IOL stability make it a practical choice for compromised zonular support.
  • This technique offers improved outcomes and patient satisfaction over conventional methods.
