Simple ab externo lens capsule removal in intraocular lens reuse and intrascleral fixation for intracapsular lens dislocation: A case report
In cases of 3-piece IOL dislocation, employing the ab externo technique for lens capsule extraction has been proven to be a straightforward and efficient method. This approach facilitates the removal of the lens capsule around the IOL. If subsequent damage to the IOL is identified, it allows for easy conversion to replacement.
