Event Description
|
A non-health care professional reported that during an intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, the iol did not unfold in the bag.The trailing haptic was not able to be pulled off of the optic despite many efforts.At that point, the decision was made to cut the optic and remove it from the eye.A second intraocular lens was placed in the eye.At this point, 3 clock hours of zonular dehiscence was noted.A capsular tension ring was injected into the bag.The lens appeared to be well centered at this point and did not move despite alterations in the anterior chamber depth.The patient experienced a descemet's detachment after irrigation of the wound which was resolving with injection of the air bubble.Additional information was requested, but no further information is available.
