Abstract

Nowadays intravitreal drug administration occupies one of the leading places in the structure of the treatment of eye diseases. the technique for performing this manipulation is simple and universal. however, there may be complications during it. among them are transient ophthalmohypertension, uveitis, endophthalmitis, as well as damage to the lens and retina. a clinical case of surgical treatment of patient d., aged 81, with damage to the posterior lens capsule and fast cataract development was analyzed. Тhe operation was performed on the device EVa (dorc). retrobulbar anesthesia with ropivacaine (ropivacaine Kabi) FrESEnIUS KaBI norgE, aS (norway) 5.0 ml. paracentesis was performed at 2 and 10 o’clock, tunnel 2.2 mm, introduction of viscoelastic discoVisc (alcon). Сapsulorhexis 4 mm was performed using capsular tweezers. the swollen lens masses were washed with an irrigation-aspiration system. 25g ports were installed 3 mm from the limbus in the lower outer, upper outer, upper inner segments of the eyeball. Тotal vitrectomy was performed in the usual mode (vitreotome cuts 10 thousand per minute and irrigation 70 mm hg). the dislocated lens was also removed using a vitreotome with a frequency of 4,000 cuts per minute. Implantation of the intraocular lens rayone hydrofobic aspheric +22.0 diopters (rayner Intraocular lenses limited, United Kingdom) on the anterior capsulorhexis. Fixation of the Iol was not required because the diameter of the anterior rexis of 4 mm (which is smaller than the diameter of the Iol optics of 6 mm) made it possible to hold the lens. Interrupted 7/0 vicryl sutures were put on the sclera. Тhe approach to surgical treatment chosen by us, based on the patient’s history, examination, tactics of performing surgical intervention, showed its timeliness and effectiveness.
