Abstract

PURPOSE: To demonstrate a novel surgical technique (intraocular lens imbrication) for persistent postoperative pupillary capture after sutureless scleral intraocular lens fixation.

METHODS: Case report and supplemental digital content demonstrating salient steps of a novel surgical technique.

RESULTS: The patient did not suffer any further episodes of pupillary capture after intraocular lens imbrication with aforementioned surgical technique five months after the procedure. Postoperative best-corrected visual acuities were 20/40 in both eyes.

CONCLUSION: Intraocular lens imbrication is an effective method to address persistent postoperative pupillary capture after sutureless scleral intraocular lens fixation.
