Refractive outcomes for secondary sutureless posterior chamber lens implantation: sutureless scleral fixating lens Carlevale® versus retropupillary iris-claw lens Artisan®
What is known? Multiple surgical options for correcting aphakia in the absence of capsular support can be used. Currently, foldable intraocular lens sutureless scleral fixated sutureless (FIL-SSF, Carlevale®) and iris-claw (Artisan®) implants are the two preferred options, but there is no consensus on the best technique to adopt. What is new? We showed that FIL-SSF has a significantly lower surgically induced astigmatism compared to the iris-claw implant. Similar rate of postoperative complications was found between these two techniques. Future studies with a longer follow-up period are needed to ascertain its tolerance.
