| Abstrakt: | Surgical management of haptic extrusion of an intrascleral sutureless-fixated intraocular lens (IOL) (FIL-SSF Carlevale, Soleko) by repositioning the IOL without lens extraction was reported. The patient presented an early extrusion of both IOL harpoons just 4 weeks after the initial surgery. New scleral flaps were created 30 degrees superior to the nasal harpoon and 30 degrees inferior to the temporal harpoon so that the IOL was rotated clockwise. Each haptic was grasped with a 25-gauge forceps and introduced into the vitreous cavity and regrasped with another forceps through a new port, 1.5 mm posterior to the limbus, and underneath a new scleral flap. The Carlevale IOL is specially designed for sutureless intrascleral fixation with excellent anatomic and visual results but may also show specific complications. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report on how to efficiently manage harpoon erosion using this simple technique.
