Event or Problem Description
A non-healthcare professional reported that post intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, the lens was explanted due to displacement of iol.Additional information was received and provided as the patient developed a cataract following a previously performed retinal detachment repair.Cataract surgery was complicated by a posterior capsule breach.Company lens placement was indicated and a 3- piece company lens implanted.Upon insertion, damage to the trailing haptic was identified.It was opted by the surgeon to leave the lens in place as it appeared centered and operating room staff expressed unfamiliarity in loading a 3-piece iol into the inserter (high likelihood of damaging another lens if attempted).Postoperatively, the iol remained centered for four subsequent post operative visits with uncorrected visual acuity in the 20/25-20/30 range.On (b)(6) 2022, patient presented with decreased vision to 20/50 for approximately 1 week duration.Examination revealed an inferiorly displaced iol with the optic rim within the pupil margin.Patient elected to undergo iol exchange.As capsule/zolunar support could not be verified, the company iol was replaced with an anterior chamber lens on 2/3/22.Patient is recovering well with uncorrected 20/50 vision at the last office visit on 3/9/22.There remain two sutures in the corneal incision, as well as 2+ posterior capsule opacification in the visual axis accounting for this vision.Acuity is expected to further improve following removal of remaining sutures and yag capsulotomy of opacified capsule.Doctor said the issues related to improper loading and insertion of these lenses.I do not believe this will be a problem in the future.It is unclear if the haptic damage was responsible for the iol decentration, or simply inadequate iol support in an eye that had undergone multiple surgeries.
