Abstract
Introduction Calcification of hydrophilic intraocular lenses (IOL) is a rare complication following cataract surgery. Secondary calcification is described as due to host factors or changes in the IOL environment and uveitis, proliferative diabetic retinopathy and sequelae of ocular surgery are recognised potentiators. The impact of systemic connective tissue disease on IOL opacification is yet to described. Purpose To describe the clinical presentation and management of a young patient, with a rare subtype of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, who presented with secondary IOL calcification 14 years after primary IOL insertion. Observations Floret-like lesions were observed on the IOL surface. Positive staining for calcification was observed with Alizarin red and von Kossa method on laboratory analysis. Conclusions and importance Patients with systemic connective tissue disease, such as a subtype of Ehlers-Danlos, may present with secondary IOL calcification many years after primary lens insertion. This poses an additional consideration when implanting IOLs in these patients.Good visual acuity can be achieved with IOL exchange.

Abstract
Purpose: To present a series of 4 patients from the Ohio Amish or Mennonite populations with isolated ectopia lentis. Methods: A case series was evaluated. Results: Four cases with bilateral lens subluxations were diagnosed with a homozygous c.767_786del pathogenic variant in ADAMTSL4. Their ages ranged from 2 to 22 years. Three cases were symptomatic and were managed surgically with lensectomy, vitrectomy, and endolaser photocoagulation with or without secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. One asymptomatic patient was observed. The postoperative visual acuity ranged from 20/20 to 20/60 in nonamblyopic eyes. Conclusions: The pathogenic homozygous c.767_786del variant in ADAMTSL4 may be a cause of bilateral isolated ectopia lentis in the Ohio Amish and Mennonite populations, likely as a result of a founder effect. Vitrectomy and lens extraction with or without secondary IOL implantation may lead to good visual outcomes. There were no cases of retinal detachment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To report a case of membranous encapsulation of a scleral-fixated Akreos intraocular lens (IOL) that was successfully treated with vitrectomy and membranectomy without IOL exchange or removal. METHODS Case report. RESULTS A 58-year-old woman with a history of bilateral chronic anterior and intermediate uveitis underwent scleral fixation of Akreos IOL for dislocated 3-piece IOL in the vitreous cavity. She presented one year later with progressively worsening vision (decreased to 20/200) and was found to have a complete encapsulation of the IOL. The patient underwent successful vitrectomy and membranectomy with return of vision to 20/25 within three months of surgery. CONCLUSION There are numerous case reports of opacification after scleral fixation of Akreos IOL. To our knowledge, this is the first report of complete encapsulation of the IOL with a membrane of this type and character. The etiology for this patient's presentation is unclear, but was presumed to be related to her history of chronic intraocular inflammation.

Abstract
Background To report the clinical consequences and laboratory characteristics of late postoperative opacification of a hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens (US-860UV IOL) as well as the prognosis of IOL replacement. Methods Forty medical records (42 eyes) of patients with US-860UV IOL opacification reporting decreased or lost vision who underwent IOL explantation between 2017 and 2019 were reviewed. Explanted IOLs were analyzed by slit-lamp examination, confocal microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) at the Shandong Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Shandong Eye Institute, Shandong First Medical University, and Qingdao University of Science and Technology, Qingdao, China. Results The mean age of the 40 patients was 74.83 ± 7.57 (63-92) years. The mean interval between cataract surgery and diagnosis of opacification was 32.38 ± 8.76 (17-48) months. Systemic diseases were found without statistical correlations, the most frequent being arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, and diabetes mellitus. Visual acuity improved from 1.42 ± 1.03 to 0.31 ± 0.16 (logMAR) after IOL replacement. SEM, EDS and alizarin red staining showed uniformly distributed, diffuse, milk-white opacification, with calcium and phosphorus deposits on the optic and haptic surfaces that could be dissolved in 1% HCl. Conclusions Calcium and phosphorus deposition was the main cause of hydrophilic acrylic US-860UV IOL opacification. IOL replacement can safely and effectively improve the visual acuity of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the long-term anatomic outcomes and surgical complications of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and 4-point Gore-Tex-sutured Akreos AO60 intraocular lens (IOL) scleral fixation. DESIGN Retrospective, multicenter, multisurgeon case series. PARTICIPANTS Ninety-seven patients in tertiary eye care centers. METHODS The patients underwent PPV and intraocular fixation of the Akreos AO60 IOL using Gore-Tex CV-8 sutures between January 2015 and April 2020. The inclusion criteria were aphakia, no capsular support, and a minimal 1 year of follow-up. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Uncorrected visual acuity (VA), complication rates or types, and refraction. RESULTS Data from 101 eyes of the 97 patients were analyzed (mean follow-up duration, 33.4 months; range, 12-62 months). The mean ± standard deviation uncorrected logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution VA improved from 1.04 ± 0.73 (20/200 Snellen equivalent) before surgery to 0.66 ± 0.65 (20/80) at 6 months after surgery (P < 0.001). The most prevalent complications included hypotony (12.9%), ocular hypertension (12.9%), corneal edema (8.9%), cystoid macular edema (6.9%), and vitreous hemorrhage (5.9%). Refraction was measured between 3 and 6 months after surgery, and 61.8% of the patients had spherical equivalent of ± 2.0 diopters. Most complications occurred in the first postoperative month and resolved spontaneously or with medical treatment. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrated that this surgical technique is well tolerated by the eyes, with a low complication rate in the long term. The rates of IOL opacification were infrequent for up to 62 months of follow-up.

Abstract
In the absence of capsular support, it is not always possible to safely place an intraocular lens (IOL) in the capsular bag at the time of surgery. Several techniques have thus been developed to enable safe placement of a secondary IOL outside the capsular bag. These techniques include placement of anterior chamber IOLs, iris-fixated IOLs (sutured, iris-claw), and scleral-fixated IOLs (sutured, sutureless). Secondary IOL placement can take place at the time of the initial surgery or in a second surgery. Each technique has its own unique advantages, as well as its potential complications. At this time, comparison studies have found no secondary IOL technique to be superior in terms of visual acuity or rate of complications. Additional comparison studies with longer follow-up times are needed to confirm these findings. The decision on which secondary IOL technique to perform depends on numerous factors including surgeon experience and comfort, as well as patient comorbidities.

Abstract
Background While each scleral fixation method has its own advantages, there is a lack of strong evidence to suggest a superior technique. Advances in cataract surgery expand patient eligibility for successful cataract extraction, benefitting a growing population of pseudophakic patients. However, implantation of secondary intraocular lens (IOL) with compromised anterior or posterior capsule is a more challenging task. Each method of scleral fixation has its own advantages and none of them has strong evidence to be superior. This paper describes postsurgical outcomes of two scleral intraocular(IOL) fixation techniques combined with pars plana vitrectomy(PPV) from a single tertiary referral eye center. Methods Patients underwent PPV and IOL implantation with either four-point sutured scleral fixation (Akreos AO60(AK); n = 24) or two-point sutureless flanged intrascleral fixation (CT Lucia(CTL); n = 7). Reports include IOL and sclerotomy placement, fixation techniques, and IOL model. Results Thirty-one eyes of thirty patients were analyzed. Average change in vision from baseline measurement was LogMAR − 0.68 ± 0.66 and − 0.90 ± 0.63 for AK and CTL groups, respectively. Average postoperative refractive error was − 0.3 ± 1.03 D (AK) and 0.4 ± 0.60 D (CTL). No opacification cases of Akreos lens were found in this study with the longest follow up of 53 months. Conclusions Both methods of implantation (sutured and sutureless) could provide good visual and refractive outcomes. Minimal complication rates were reported despite including patients with multiple comorbidities, making both techniques an attractive choice for secondary IOL implantation.

Abstract
Varied options are available for the implantation of secondary intraocular lens implants in the absence of zonular or capsular support. Loss of the capsule can occur in the context of complicated cataract surgery, trauma or inherited conditions such as Marfan syndrome or pseudoexfoliation. Approaches to overcome this include optical measures such as the use of spectacles or contact lenses, and surgical therapy incorporating the use of anterior chamber, iris-fixated or scleral-fixated lenses. Surgical techniques to implant scleral-fixated lenses have undergone various modifications, since the first publication of sutured intrascleral fixation described in the 1980s. However, despite the advances in surgical techniques, studies are limited either by their retrospective nature, small sample size and most importantly small duration of follow-up. This comprehensive review aims to amalgamate the evolution of various surgical techniques with regards to intrascleral lens fixation and suggests areas for future development.

Abstract
Purpose: We report the longest follow-up to our knowledge of stable scleral fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) with 10-0 polypropylene sutures. Methods: A retrospective review is presented of a case with more than 30 years’ follow-up after performing sutured scleral fixation with 10-0 polypropylene suture using 2 sutures tied together under a scleral flap. One suture was a cow-hitch looped around the haptic, and the other suture was passed through the sclera to create the scleral fixation. Results: The scleral fixation with 10-0 polypropylene suture knots for both haptics of the PC IOL allowed central optic positioning with excellent vision for more than 30 years without suture breakage. Conclusions: Polypropylene sutures for scleral fixation of PC IOLs remained stable for more than 30 years with central positioning of the PC IOL, without exposure of the fixation suture knots through the conjunctiva, and without suture breakage.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the short-term outcomes of a modified small-incision technique for implantation of scleral-fixated intraocular lenses (IOLs) using Gore-Tex sutures. METHODS A retrospective, interventional, consecutive case series was conducted. From June 2019 to February 2020, 10 patients underwent small-incision scleral-fixated IOL implantation using Gore-Tex sutures at a tertiary referral center. Visual and anatomical outcomes and complications were recorded with a minimum follow-up period of 3 months. Surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) and IOL-induced astigmatism were measured. RESULTS The mean follow-up duration (range) was 396 (240-573) days. Best-corrected visual acuity improved significantly from logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) 0.88 ± 0.65 (Snellen equivalent: 20/153) preoperation to logMAR = 0.30 ± 0.51 (Snellen equivalent: 20/40) at final follow-up (P = .008). The estimated SIA and IOL-induced astigmatism were 0.61 diopters (D) ± 0.49D and 0.40D ± 0.36D, respectively. No intraoperative complications occurred. The postoperative complications, which included ocular hypertension (20%), cystoid macular edema (30%), and vitreous hemorrhage (20%), were transient and resolved with topical medication. CONCLUSIONS The modified small-incision technique for implantation of scleral-fixated IOLs using Gore-Tex sutures was well tolerated in all patients, with favorable postoperative visual outcomes and minimal SIA and IOL-induced astigmatism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To report cases with intraocular lens (IOL) opacification following silicone oil (SO) endotamponade. PATIENTS AND METHODS Medical charts of 32 eyes with IOL opacification were evaluated retrospectively. All eyes had rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and had a history of previous hydrophilic acrylic IOL implantation. All patients underwent vitrectomy with SO endotamponade. Clinical features of all cases and the results of histochemical evaluation of explanted IOLs were reported. RESULTS The mean duration of SO endotamponade was 4.6 ± 2.0 months. The mean follow-up was 67.0 ± 23.5 months. The interval between phacoemulsification surgery and IOL opacification was 27.4 ± 18.3 months. With the exception of two eyes, all IOL opacification was detected during the follow-up period after SO removal. IOL exchange was performed in 12 eyes (37.5%). Histochemical analysis revealed significant calcification mostly on the surface of explanted IOL optics. CONCLUSION Vitreoretinal surgeons should be aware of that some hydrophilic IOLs may have the potential of opacification following SO endotamponade.
