Intraocular Position of Secondary Iris-Fixated IOLs in Aphakic Eyes
Completed
- Conditions
- Aphakia
- Registration Number
- NCT00773266
- Lead Sponsor
- Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intraocular stability and safety of secondary iris-fixated IOLs in aphakic patients.
- Detailed Description
18 eyes of 16 patients received secondary anteriorly iris-fixated intraocular lenses (IOLs) to correct for aphakia without capsular support, partly combined with anterior or complete pars plana vitrectomy. Primary outcome measurements included visual acuity (6m Snellen charts), central endothelium cell count (cECC) and postoperative intraocular position of the IOL assessed with anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT).
