Event Description
|
It was reported that while performing a combined intraocular lens (iol) exchange and vitrectomy procedure, during implantation of the iol into the left eye, it was observed that the leading haptic was bent beyond repair.The iol was removed.Small zonular dialysis was observed with vitreous loss.A vitrectomy was performed, and a successful lens exchange was performed positioning a backup three-piece lens in the ciliary sulcus.In the surgeon's opinion, the most likely cause of the iol damage was the delivery device which allegedly led to the bent haptic.Patient outcome is good.Additional information was requested, but not received.
