Abstract
To present a surgical technique that allows rescue (repositioning) of a dislocated Akreos AO model intraocular lens (IOL) using scleral sutures.
The surgical technique is described with supplemental video.
The technique was used in 4 eyes of 3 patients with 2-18 months of followup information. The IOL was well positioned and the visual acuity (as limited by other disease) was good, without adverse events.
Scleral suture techniques for repositioning of the Akreos AO IOL offers a suitable alternative to IOL exchange.
