Artisan IOL: Visual acuity outcome after implantation of an iris-fixated and scleral fixated IOL in eyes with no capsule support

In uncomplicated cataract surgery the intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted in the capsular bag. However, in those cases where there is no capsule bag support, the IOL has to be placed at an alternative position. One common position is to fixate the IOL at the iris (retropupillary) using an iris-claw-IOL. This technique was shown to be safe and efficient. This study evaluates the outcomes of patients with those IOLs.
