Abstrakt: Background: An ophthalmic surgeon is relatively frequently confronted with the situation to place an iol in aphakic eye without capsular bag in various conditions like trauma, complicated cataract surgery and different ocular diseases. Hence, the present study was conducted to compare Retropupillary Iris Claw Versus Scleral-Fixated Intraocular Lens In Post-Cataract Aphakia. Material & Methods: The present comparative study was conducted on 60 aphakic patients. Patients were divided into two groups of 30 each randomly, Group 1 had patients with iris claw fixation IOL and Group 2 had patients with scleral fixated IOL. Data was recorded and analysed using (Statistical Package for the Social Science) SPSS 21version (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) statistical program for Microsoft Windows. Results: There was significant difference in vision between two groups at one month and 3 month post operative (P=0.001). There was significant difference in between the two groups (P=0.001) in pupil ovalisation also. More than half the iris claw IOLs were placed at the same time as primary cataract surgery as opposed to very few SFIOL done in primary setting. Retropupillary iris claw IOL fixation is as safe as SFIOL for visual rehabilitation of post-cataract aphakia. Both primary (i.e. at the time of cataract surgery) and secondary approaches yield comparable visual results. Conclusion: The study concluded that Retropupillary iris claw IOL fixation is better than SFIOL for visual rehabilitation of post-cataract aphakia acording to this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
