Popis: Abstract Background To present the follow-up outcomes of a modified technique of transscleral suture fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) in eyes with inadequate capsule support. Methods A retrospective chart review of 21 patients underwent transscleral suture fixation of a foldable 3-looped haptics one-piece PCIOL implantation through scleral pockets was conducted. Preoperative data and follow-up data for at least 3 months were collected for all patients. Results The mean operative duration was 36.62 ± 10.70 min. The mean pre- and post-operative LogMAR uncorrected distance visual acuity was (1.25 ± 0.50 vs. 0.41 ± 0.22, P
