Abstract
Lens dislocation is a significant complication after cataract surgery. Scleral fixation of 3-piece intraocular lens provides favorable visual outcome and can spare patients the need for lens exchange. Two patients presented with dislocated 3-piece lenses implanted over 10 years earlier. Both patients underwent pars plana vitrectomy and dropped lens rescue with scleral fixation. Postoperatively, the lens optic was found flipped nearly 90° at the optic-haptic junctions secondary to fluid-air exchange performed during vitrectomy. Both patients underwent intraocular lens exchange with a four point sclera fixated lens. Our study found that air tamponade is better avoided during rescue of old dislocated 3-piece lens implants. Intraocular lens exchange is preferred, when possible, to avoid complications associated with old dislocated lenses. Larger studies are needed to determine the effect of time on dislocated lens implants materials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several optical coherence tomography (OCT) biomarkers for postsurgical success in patients with idiopathic epiretinal membranes (iERMs) have been described in single predictor analyses. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of diagnosis of OCT biomarkers and to calculate their impact on postsurgical visual acuity by applying multiple regression analysis. METHODS This retrospective study included patients scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling for iERMs. Presurgical OCT scans were analyzed for the presence of OCT biomarkers by two reviewers. Intra- and interobserver reliability was calculated with the Kuder-Richardson 20 test. RESULTS Among the 136 patients included, intra-/interobserver reliability of the OCT biomarkers was 0.89/0.70 for ectopic inner foveal layer (EIFL), 0.82/0.53 for disorganization of retinal inner layer (DRIL), 0.93/0.89 for intraretinal cystoid changes, 0.84/0.78 for alterations of the ellipsoid zone, 0.84/0.72 for cotton ball sign, 0.68/0.58 for hyperreflective foci, 0.55/0.47 for epimacular membrane rips (EMM-rips), and 0.87/0.60 for retinal contraction. Only DRIL and central subfield macular thickness (CMT) were significant predictors for BCVA 3 months after surgery in a multiple regression analysis. CONCLUSION Intraobserver reliability of OCT biomarkers was higher than interobserver reliability, reflecting both clinical and grading experience with respect to OCT biomarker evaluation. DRIL and CMT were shown to be significant predictors in a multiple regression analysis, with potential for negative influence on final BCVA after vitrectomy with membrane peeling for iERMs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify predictors and develop a prognostic nomogram for clinically significant intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration in vitrectomized eyes. SETTING Zhongshan ophthalmic center, Guangzhou, China. DESIGN Prospective observational study. METHODS Patients with previous pars plana vitrectomy who underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation were enrolled in this study. The tilt and decentration of the lens and IOL were assessed by a swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (CASIA2). Multiple logistic regression analysis and prognostic nomogram models were used to explore factors associated with clinically significant IOL tilt and decentration (defined as tilt ≥7 degrees and decentration ≥0.4 mm). RESULTS 375 patients (375 eyes) with a mean age of 56.1 ± 9.81 years were included. Lens tilt (odds ratio [OR] = 1.44), lens decentration (OR = 1.74), lens diameter (OR = 0.49), and hydrophilic IOL (OR = 2.36) were associated with IOL tilt over 7 degrees (all P < .05). Lens tilt (OR = 1.24), lens decentration (OR = 2.30), and incomplete capsulorhexis-IOL overlap (OR = 2.44) increased the risk of IOL decentration over 0.4 mm (all P < .05). Preoperative lens tilt together with lens decentration was identified as the strongest predictor of incident clinically significant IOL tilt (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.82, 95% CI, 0.76-0.88) and decentration (AUC: 0.84, 95% CI, 0.78-0.89), and the nomogram was constructed accordingly. CONCLUSIONS The tilt and decentration of the crystalline lens, hydrophilic IOL, and incomplete capsulorhexis-IOL overlap were risk factors for clinically significant IOL misalignment. Clinicians could use a prognostic nomogram model based on the preoperative lens position to make a strategy for higher-risk patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the characteristics and factors associated with intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration after uneventful phacoemulsification with IOL implantation. SETTING Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS All patients underwent a general ophthalmologic examination and anterior segment photography. IOL tilt and decentration were measured with a second-generation anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Casia2). Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to assess the association between IOL tilt and decentration with ocular biometric and systemic parameters, and the visual acuity. RESULTS A total of 196 eyes of 196 patients were enrolled in this study. IOLs showed a mean tilt of 4.8 degrees toward the inferotemporal direction, and the mean decentration was 0.21 mm. Both eyes presented a mirror symmetry relationship. Twenty-two eyes (11.22%) had a tilt greater than 7 degrees, and 21 eyes (10.72%) had a decentration more than 0.4 mm. Multivariate regression analysis showed previous pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and short axial length (AL) were associated with greater IOL tilt (P = .014 and P < .001). In addition, long AL, thicker lens, and less capsulorhexis-IOL overlap were positively correlated with decentration (P < .001, P = .029, and P = .026). Corrected distance visual acuity did not directly correlate with IOL tilt and decentration (P = .417 and P = .550). CONCLUSIONS PPV history and short AL were associated with greater IOL tilt, whereas longer AL, thicker lens, and overlarge capsulorhexis contribute to greater decentration. Implantation of toric and multifocal IOLs in these patients should be cautious.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics and risk factors of intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration of phacoemulsification after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Methods One hundred four eyes with prior PPV and 104 eyes without PPV undergoing uneventful cataract surgery were enrolled in this study. IOL tilt and decentration were measured by SS-OCT (CASIA2) 3 months postoperatively. Results The mean IOL tilt and decentration were greater in the PPV group (5.36 ± 2.50 degrees and 0.27 ± 0.17 mm, respectively) than in the non-PPV group (4.54 ± 1.46 degrees, P = 0.005; 0.19 ± 0.12 mm, P < 0.001, respectively). Multiple logistic regression showed that silicone oil (SO) tamponade (odds ratio [OR] = 5.659, P = 0.021) and hydrophilic IOL (OR = 5.309, P = 0.022) were associated with IOL tilt over 7 degrees, and diabetes mellitus (DM; OR = 5.544, P = 0.033) was associated with IOL decentration over 0.4 mm. Duration of SO tamponade was positively correlated with IOL tilt (P = 0.014) and decentration (P < 0.001). The internal total higher-order aberration, coma, trefoil, and secondary astigmatism in the PPV group were higher than in the non-PPV group, and positively correlated with IOL tilt (P < 0.05). Conclusions Patients with prior vitrectomy had greater IOL tilt and decentration than the non-PPV group. Longer duration of SO tamponade, hydrophilic IOL, as well as DM were the risk factors of greater IOL tilt and decentration in patients with prior PPV. Translational Relevance Optically sophisticated designed IOLs should be used cautiously in vitrectomized eyes.

[PMID: 33315894 PMCID: PMC7735572 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0243740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2020] [Accepted: 11/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To numerically evaluate and compare the tolerance to misalignment and tilt of aspheric intraocular lenses (IOLs) designed for three eyes: with standard cornea and with simulated corneas after myopic and hyperopic laser ablation surgery. METHODS Three aspheric IOLs of +20.00 diopter (D) with different spherical aberration (SA) ([Formula: see text]) values have been designed using a theoretical model eye. Drastic changes on the theoretical eye anterior corneal asphericity have been performed to simulate myopic and hyperopic refractive surgeries. The effect of IOL misalignment and tilt on the image quality has been evaluated using a commercial optical software design for the three eye models. Image quality was assessed from the modulation transfer function (MTF), root mean square (RMS) values of defocus, astigmatism, coma and spherical aberration ([Formula: see text]), and retinal images obtained from a visual simulator using an aleatory optotype of 0.00 LogMar visual acuity (VA). RESULTS IOL misalignment and tilt reduced MTF values in general, and increased wavefront aberrations errors. Aberration-free IOLs maintained best the MTF values when misalignments were applied, together with good on-axis optical quality. IOLs with negative SA ([Formula: see text]) correction decreased the MTF value under 0.43 for misalignments values higher than 0.50 mm with the three corneas. The effect of misalignment on RMS astigmatism and coma was correlated with the IOL SA ([Formula: see text]) and with the three corneas. CONCLUSIONS This theoretical study shows that the largest degradation in image quality arises for the IOL with the highest amount of spherical aberration ([Formula: see text]). Moreover, it has been found that the aspherical design has a more influential role in misalignment tolerance than in tilt tolerance.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to analyze the effect of phacoemulsification on outcomes among patients undergoing vitrectomy with membrane peeling for idiopathic epiretinal membranes, with respect to new postoperative intraretinal cystoid changes and early transient macular edema. PROCEDURES This retrospective analysis included patients from 6 prospective studies, examining outcomes of 23G pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling due to idiopathic epiretinal membranes. Phacovitrectomy with membrane peeling was performed only in the case of coexisting vision affecting cataract. Optical coherence tomography was performed prior to surgery, in the first week, and 3 months after surgery. RESULTS In total, 183 patients were included. The occurrence of new postoperative intraretinal cystoid changes and early transient macular edema showed a trend toward being higher among patients undergoing phacovitrectomy with membrane peeling, compared to vitrectomy with membrane peeling alone, but it did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.5 and p = 0.186). The final best corrected distance visual acuity (BCVA) 3 months after surgery was significantly lower among patients with new postoperative intraretinal cystoid changes compared to patients without (with a median difference of 1 line between groups; p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS New postoperative intraretinal cystoid changes and early transient macular edema are more frequent among patients undergoing phacovitrectomy with membrane peeling compared to patients with vitrectomy with membrane peeling alone.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of vitrectomy and air tamponade on aspheric intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration and postoperative internal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in combined cataract surgery and vitrectomy (phacovitrectomy). STUDY DESIGN Prospective comparative observational study. METHODS Forty-five eyes that underwent phacovitrectomy using aspheric IOLs and 18 eyes that only underwent cataract surgery also using aspheric IOLs were prospectively evaluated. The subjects were divided into three groups: phacovitrectomy without fluid-air exchange (F/Ax) or with F/Ax and cataract surgery alone (Groups A, B, and C, respectively) Surgery-induced changes in lens tilt and decentration and internal HOAs were compared between each pair of groups. Subgroup analysis was conducted for cases with largely tilted (> 7°) or decentered (> 0.40 mm) IOLs 1 month postoperatively. RESULTS Surgery-induced changes in lens tilt in Group B were significantly more pronounced than those in Group C at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively (P = 0.007, 0.009, and 0.043, respectively), while there was no significant difference in surgery-induced changes in lens decentration among the groups. IOLs in Group B were tilted and decentered toward the inferonasal direction. In contrast, there was no significant difference in internal HOAs among the groups at any postoperative visit. Only Group B included cases with largely decentered IOLs, and the internal total HOAs in these cases were significantly larger than those in the others (P = 0.015). CONCLUSION Although largely decentered IOLs were occasionally found in Group B, aspheric IOLs could be effectively used in phacovitrectomy.
