Comparing two surgical methods for fixing intraocular lenses without capsular support

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study compares the long-term outcomes of two surgical techniques for scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOL) in patients lacking capsular support. The techniques being evaluated are the Yamane technique and the 4-flanged technique, focusing on postoperative lens tilt, surgery duration, complication rates, and scleral integrity. Participants will undergo pars plana vitrectomy and IOL fixation using one of the two methods, with follow-up assessments to determine effectiveness and safety.

Why it matters
