Patient demographic data, incidence, interval, risk factors, extent of zonular weakness, IOL and CTR design and material, surgical management, visual acuity (VA), and other complications.Results: 31 cases aged 65.17 ± 7.19 years at CTR-IOL-CB complex subluxation/dislocation were reviewed; the interval was 41.23 ± 14.63 months after implantation of IOL and CTR. The incidence rate of CTR-IOL-CB complex subluxation/dislocation was 0.85%. The most common risk factors were ocular trauma and hypermature cataract. Extent of zonular weakness of ≥ 4 o’clock and the use of 1-piece hydrophilic acrylic and 3-piece hydrophobic acrylic IOLs were susceptible to complex subluxation/dislocation. VA was significantly increased after IOL repositioning or exchange; no other complications were present.Conclusion: Zonular insufficiency stabilized with IOL and CTR alone still carries a risk of re-dislocation. Ocular trauma and hypermature cataract were the most common risks in a low-pseudoexfoliation region. IOL exchange or repositioning is effective for this complication.Keywords: CTR-IOL-CB complex, subluxation/dislocation, incidence, zonule weakness, surgical management
