    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Technology
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is a standard procedure in cataract surgery.
    • Maintaining zonular integrity during IOL insertion is crucial for long-term visual outcomes.
    • Current techniques may exert significant stress on the ciliary zonules.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new technique for double-closed-loop posterior chamber implant insertion.
    • To evaluate the minimization of zonular stress during implantation.
    • To assess the adaptability of the technique for both ciliary sulcus and capsular bag fixation.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a specialized technique for inserting double-closed-loop posterior chamber implants.

  • Utilizing both ciliary sulcus and capsular bag insertion approaches.
  • Assessment of zonular stress during the insertion process (specific metrics not detailed in abstract).

    • Main Results:

    • The developed technique effectively minimizes zonular stress during insertion.
    • The technique is compatible with both ciliary sulcus and capsular bag fixation.
    • Facilitates straightforward in-the-bag placement when desired.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel double-closed-loop posterior chamber implant insertion technique offers a safer alternative by reducing zonular stress.
    • This method provides surgical flexibility, accommodating different fixation preferences.
    • Potential for improved patient outcomes and reduced risk of complications associated with zonular damage.
