Comparison of horizontal and vertical intraocular lens fixation in the flanged intrascleral haptic fixation technique
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to compare the visual outcomes and safety of horizontal versus vertical intraocular lens (IOL) fixation using the flanged intrascleral haptic fixation technique. Their retrospective study found that both fixation methods resulted in similar improvements in visual acuity and other ocular parameters, although early postoperative complications, such as conjunctival hyperemia, were more prevalent in the vertical fixation group. Overall, both techniques demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety, suggesting that either fixation plane can be effectively utilized.
