Abstract
purpose.: To assess the stability of postoperative Intraocular Lens (IOL) between the one- piece foldable and three- piece IOLs by surgical technique of scleral fixation and so the efficacy of usage of one-piece IOL in this technique.
Material and method: This is a randomized controlled study includes one hundred eighteen eyes, which is divided into 2 groups. The group A includes fifty-nine eyes has implanted one- piece foldable IOL, while Group B with equal number of cases implanted three- piece foldable IOL. Cases were followed up for 12 months, every 3-month duration. Horizontal and vertical IOL optic tilt has been evaluated by UBM. The BCVA, refractive including cylindrical errors and IOL position were compared.
Results: The IOL inclination difference were not significant for horizontal tilt p=0.888 nor for vertical tilt p=0.14 between the two groups. No statistic significant differences for postoperative spherical error p=0.530, cylindrical error p=0.179 and BCVA p=0.160 between the 2 groups.
Conclusion: one-piece IOL achieves the advantage of good postoperative stability as well as three-piece IOL in scleral fixation technique. It also has another advantage over three-piece IOL as it has less incidence of haptic breakage during surgical manipulations
