Purpose
To describe the application of the light adjustable lens (LAL) using an intrascleral haptic fixation (ISHF) technique for the correction of aphakia and post-operative refractive error.Observation
The LAL was placed using a modified trocar-based ISHF technique for visual rehabilitation following removal of bilateral cataracts in a patient with ectopia lentis. She ultimately obtained an excellent refractive outcome after adjustment with micro-monovision.Conclusions and importance
Secondary intraocular lens placement has a much higher risk of residual ametropia than traditional in-the-bag lens placement. The ISHF technique with the LAL presents a solution for eliminating postoperative refractive error in patients requiring scleral-fixated lenses.Many UC-authored scholarly publications are freely available on this site because of the UC's open access policies.
