Abstract

Transconjunctival sutureless intrascleral fixation is an important surgical option for secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. In this report, the authors describe the technique of using a 27-gauge platform to perform pars plana vitrectomy, lensectomy, and sutureless scleral IOL fixation in a patient with crystalline lens dislocation secondary to Marfan's syndrome. Case report and detailed description of the surgical technique are discussed.
