Abstract
Aim of this study was to assess the visual outcome and complications in retropupillary iris claw lens implantation in aphakic patients. Retrospective case series of aphakic patients who underwent retrofixation of iris claw lens, over a period of two years were collected and analysed. The study comprised of 9 patients with unilateral aphakia. The follow up period was 6 months with mean uncorrected visual acuity (VA) was significantly improved at one month postoperatively (-0.69 logMAR P < 0.001) compared to preoperative value. The mean preoperative Spherical equivalent was -3.04±4.2D which significantly reduced to -1.01+/-2.66 post-operatively. Results showed that the retrofixation of iris claw lens was an effective method for correction of aphakia with significant improvement in visual outcome.
