Journal Article
Aphakia treatment with sutureless scleral fixation or retropupillary iris-claw intraocular lens implantation: visual acuity, anterior segment and keratometry outcomes
2024
Overview
Purpose
Evaluation of anterior segment parameters using the Scheimpflug corneal topography 1 year after surgery in patients who underwent sutureless scleral fixation intraocular lens (SFIOL) implantation using the modified Yamane technique and retropupillary iris-claw intraocular lens (RPIOL) implantation.
Methods
A total of 60 eyes from 57 patients who underwent sutureless SFIOL implantation and 57 eyes from 52 patients who underwent RPIOL implantation were included. Anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber angle (ACA), anterior chamber volume (ACV), anterior–posterior corneal astigmatism, and keratometric values were assessed using the Scheimpflug corneal topography (Pentacam HR, Germany).
Results
There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative UCVA and BCVA between the sutureless SFIOL and the RPIOL group (
p
= 0.236,
p
= 0.293, respectively). While there was no statistically significant difference in postoperative IOP between the two groups (
p
= 0.223), a statistically significant decrease in IOP was observed in both groups (
p
< 0.001). While there was no statistical difference between the sutureless SFIOL group and the RPIOL group in terms of spherical value (
p
= 0.441) and spherical equivalence (
p
= 0.237), there was a statistically significant difference in cylindrical value (
p
< 0.001). While there was a statistical difference in anterior astigmatism (
p
< 0.001), there was no statistical difference in posterior astigmatism (
p
= 0.405). There was no statistical difference in terms of ACV, ACD, and ACA between the sutureless SFIOL and the RPIOL group (
p
= 0.812,
p
= 0.770,
p
= 0.401, respectively).
Conclusion
In this study, although there was a statistical difference in cylindrical value and anterior corneal astigmatism between the sutureless SFIOL and RPIOL groups, vision was not affected. According to this study, sutureless SFIOL and RPIOL are two successful methods in terms of visual acuity, anterior segment, and keratometry outcomes in aphakic patients after phacoemulsification.
