Dispersive viscoelastic as an additional support in cataract surgery with incompetent of zonula ciliaris
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: To perform the review, a search of literature sources was analyzed in the PubMed abstract database using the keywords “cataract”, “lens subluxation”, “OVD” and data from Russian publications on the topic of the article for the period up to 2023 inclusive. There were 2 patients under observation: a 67 year old patient with a diagnosis of OS: Complicated cataract, grade 2 lens subluxation. Primary open-angle glaucoma 2a, operated on. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Visual acuity on admission vis OS = 0.2. The second patient, 68 years old, diagnosed with OS: Complicated cataract, grade 2 lens subluxation. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Visual acuity on admission OS = 0.1 n/k. Both patients underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation using dispersive viscoelastic as an additional support. Results: On the first day after surgery, the first patient’s uncorrected visual acuity was Vis OS = 0.8. In the second patient, on the first day after surgery, visual acuity was Vis OS = 0.8. Both patients were subjectively satisfied with the visual functions obtained. Conclusion: Thus, this clinical case demonstrates a very successful implementation of cataract phacoemulsification with IOL implantation in patients with lens ligament failure.
