Article Abstract
Background: The traditional suturing method for cyclodialysis cleft usually requires an incision in the sclera for direct suturing, resulting in greater damage and a high risk of postoperative complications. The purpose of this work was to propose a newly intrascleral double continuous suture repair technique for the treatment of cyclodialysis clefts.
Methods: Seven patients with cyclodialysis cleft underwent microinvasive intrascleral double continuous suture repair surgery to restore the attachment of the detached ciliary body to the sclera without scleral incision. All operations were performed by the same surgeon. Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity, intraocular pressure, slit-lamp and corneal examination results, ultrasound biomicroscopy, and optical coherence tomography results were recorded.
Results: Closure of the cyclodialysis cleft was achieved in seven eyes, and no obvious complications occurred after the operation. Intraocular pressure increased from preoperatively 6.8 ± 1.35 mmHg (range: 4.8-8.0 mmHg) to postoperatively 12.5 ± 4.0 mmHg (range: 8.0-20.0 mmHg) (paired-sample t -test, P < 0.01). Best-corrected Snellen visual acuity improved from preoperatively range 20/2000 to 20/63 to range 20/200 to 20/25 at the final follow-up.
Conclusion: In short, intrascleral double continuous suture repair surgical is safe and effective in treating cyclodialysis cleft, with minimal surgical trauma.

Secondary intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation with capsule preservation for IOL dislocation following mature cataract surgery with incomplete capsulorhexis: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
June 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Saitama Red Cross Hospital, Saitama, Japan.
Rationale: The objective of this study was to apply secondary intraocular lens (IOL) intrascleral fixation with lens capsule preservation in a patient with IOL dislocation following mature cataract surgery with incomplete continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC).
Patient Concerns: A 56-year-old Japanese woman experienced distorted vision 4 days after phacoemulsification and intracapsular IOL implantation for a mature cataract.
Diagnoses: Slit-lamp examination revealed inferior-nasal dislocation of the intracapsular IOL through an anterior capsule defect (3-6 o'clock) caused by peripheral extension of the CCC during the primary surgery.

Purpose: To evaluate the modified double-flanged technique in cases of subluxated foldable single-piece intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on 14 eyes of 14 patients.The following steps were performed in the surgical technique, respectively;the dislocated foldable single-piece IOL was repositioned into the anterior chamber, and the haptic was extracted through the corneal main incision.
Three-point flanged optic piercing intrascleral fixation of multifocal intraocular lenses.

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of a three-point flanged optic piercing intrascleral fixation technique for replacing a dislocated multifocal intraocular lens (IOL).
Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study.
Methods: In total, 13 eyes from 13 patients with a dislocated single-piece C-loop or double C-loop diffractive multifocal IOL were enrolled to undergo dislocated multifocal IOL replacement through three-point flanged optic piercing 120 degrees apart intrascleral fixation using 7-0 polypropylene sutures at 2.
Scleral fixated intraocular lens techniques for the vitreoretinal surgeon: an update.
Curr Opin Ophthalmol

Department of Research, Wills Eye Hospital, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Purpose Of Review: To describe recent evidence regarding surgical techniques for secondary scleral fixation of intraocular lenses (IOLs), with attention to information most relevant to the surgical practice of vitreoretinal surgeons.
Recent Findings: Recent studies have reported favorable outcomes in patients treated with scleral fixation of IOLs using Gore-Tex suture and flanged intrascleral haptic fixation (ISHF). ISHF can be achieved using trocar-cannulas or double needle-based techniques.
Safety and efficacy of the Yamane technique for intraocular three-piece lens implantation in Egyptian patients diagnosed with Marfan syndrome: a retrospective study.

Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, Beni Suef University, Beni Suef, Egypt.
Background: This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of the Yamane technique (flanged intrascleral haptic fixation with double-needle technique /FIHFT) for three-piece intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in Egyptian patients diagnosed with Marfan syndrome (MFS) presented with subluxated lenses (ectopia lentis, EL).
Methods: This was a retrospective evaluation of thirty-three patients who were diagnosed with MFS and had subluxated lenses in a total of forty eyes. Seven of these patients had bilateral subluxation.
