Surgical implications in intraocular lens exchange with an open posterior capsule: a retrospective case series and review of the literature
The success rate of repositioning an IOL within a bag with OPC is less than that achieved with CPC. A vitrectomy is typically required when attempting a bag-to-bag IOL exchange with an OPC. Capsulotomy should only be performed if the necessity of an IOL exchange is unlikely.
