Résumé
To describe a novel surgical technique for rescuing a dislocated "in-the-bag" accommodative intraocular lens (Crystalens; Bausch and Lomb Inc, Rochester NY) and report its postoperative outcome. Interventional case report. An 82-year-old patient with history of pseudoexfoliation syndrome presented with a posteriorly dislocated "in-the-bag" Crystalens intraocular lens. A pars plana vitrectomy was performed. The Crystalens intraocular lens was rescued, and scleral sulcus fixated using prolene suture. No intraoperative or postoperative complications were noted. The preoperative visual acuity was 6/200. The vision improved to 20/30, 8 weeks after the surgery. Rescuing, instead of exchanging, a Crystalens intraocular lens might be a safe alternative in patients with a dislocated "in-the-bag" Crystalens intraocular lens.
