Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Scleral fixated intraocular lenses (SFIOLs) have revolutionized aphakia management with compromised capsular support. Previous techniques, predominantly sutured SFIOLs, exhibited durability but were plagued by suture-related issues, necessitating advancements in fixation methodologies. In this case, a patient with lens dislocation post-ocular trauma underwent a vitrectomy with nucleus removal using the vacuum-assisted levitation method. Subsequently, the implantation of a novel CM T Flex IOL with a distinctive T-shaped haptic design was performed, obviating the need for haptic tucking or suturing. The surgical approach showcased heightened efficiency, minimized tissue handling, and a decreased risk of complications, collectively contributing to improved postoperative outcomes.
