Abstract
We describe a technique for repositioning and transscleral fixation of a dislocated plate-haptic foldable collamer posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL). The displaced IOL was positioned in the anterior chamber, and a double-armed suture on a curved needle was fixed to the sclera at 10:30 o'clock. The needle then entered the globe and passed through the superior haptic eyelet of the IOL. Both were withdrawn through the scleral wound on the opposite side. The inferior haptic was fixed at 4:30 and 7:30 o'clock and provided the mirror reflection of the suture path of the upper fixed haptic. This technique may be a useful alternative to lens removal or exchange.
