We describe a case of anteriorly dislocated, Yamane-fixated secondary intraocular lens (IOLs) with pigmentary dispersion syndrome. The patient presented with significant visual impairment and elevated intraocular pressure despite being maximally treated with all topical antihypertensive medications. The iris-IOL touch was confirmed by ultrasound biomicroscopy, and fundus examination revealed evidence of pigment granules on the optic disc. The previous Yamane-fixated secondary IOL was repositioned using a double-needle adaptation of Yamane technique and Kim’s modification of scleral-fixated IOLs. To our knowledge, this is the first ever documented case of double-needle Yamane technique of a previous Yamane-fixated eye. In cases of inadequate capsular support, the development of new surgical techniques for the fixation of IOL continues to improve the safety and efficacy of these complicated surgeries. |
