Titre | IOL-Exchange: indications and outcomes |
Abstract Nr. | 3006 |
But | To report the different indications, frequency of indications, and outcomes regarding the IOL-exchange in the University Hospital of Antwerp. |
Méthodes | In this retrospective study we comprised all patients who underwent an IOL exchange in the University Hospital of Antwerp (UZA) between 2002 and 2017. We excluded patients who underwent IOL repositioning, Rayner IOL implantation or extraction, and patients who were left aphakia. |
Résultats | 384 eyes were included in the study. Mean age was 66 ± 13,3 years (range 19-91). Mean time between primary surgery and exchange was 54,61 ± 67,07 months (range 0-343 months). The most common systemic comorbidity was cardiovascular disease while the most common ophthalmic comorbidity was vitreoretinal surgery. The most common indication was IOL opacification. The Mean BCVA postoperative was 0,8 ± 0,28. |
Conclusion | IOL exchange Is a challenging yet satisfying procedure to treat many different indications of vision loss after primary cataract surgery. The more common indications nowadays are IOL dislocation, patient dissatisfaction due to subjective complaints, and IOL opacification. |
