Temporary Haptic fixation With a Silicone Plug
By Mahi Muqit, PhD, FRCOphth; David
Mordant, MD; and C. K. Patel, FRCOphth
The surgeons describe a modified intrascleral
IOL fixation technique using a temporary
silicone plug following a 23-gauge pars
plana vitrectomy. While adjusting the centration of the IOL's
optic, the leading haptic remains anchored by the silicone plug
under the scleral flap. Once the IOL is positioned correctly, the
silicone plug is removed, and the leading haptic is tucked into
the intrascleral tunnel.
