Dance of Phacodonesis – Managing Subluxated
Lens, Dr. op & Aphakia
Dr. Manavi Deokrishna Sindal
Phacodonesis and nucleus, cortex or IOL drop remains one of the most common intraocular complications of
cataract surgery. Advancements in vitrectomy procedures & IOL fixation help us achieve excellent outcomes
even in such scenarios. This IC brings together surgeons routinely involved in managing such cases, aiming
to highlight best practice patterns to achieve optimum results. In the course of this IC, we will cover the
appropriate approach to these cases, an anterior segment surgeon’s perspective, followed by detailed videos
showing how a vitreo retinal surgeon manages them. A detailed discussion on various IOL fixation options in
absence of capsular support is followed by selected videos on such techniques. The IC will enable all IOL
surgeons to have the best choice thereby ensuring excellent result even after a complication.
