Leber’S Congenital Amaurosis

The dislocation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) because of constant eye rubbing is unusual and has never been reported in a child with Leber’s congenital amaurosis (LCA). A 4-year-old full-term girl with an ocular history of LCA presented to the emergency room with a single-piece PC IOL dislocated into the anterior chamber (AC) of the left eye. There was no history of trauma or any other surgical intervention. A specific behavior known as Franceschetti’s oculo-digital sign is a characteristic feature of LCA; this sign consists of repeated pressing, poking, and rubbing of the eyes with knuckles and fingers to stimulate the photoreceptors. This behavior caused the dislocation of the PC IOL into the AC. The dislocated IOL was explanted, and the patient was provided with aphakic glasses.

A 59 years old man presented with a history of phacoemulsification with an hydrophobic intraocular lens implant in his left eye 4 years ago. The biomicroscopy revealed pigments in the corneal endothelium (Krukenberg’s spindle), peripheral transillumination of the iris and intraocular pressure of 52 mmHg in the left eye. Gonioscopy revealed hyperpigmentation of the posterior trabeculate. Posterior segment examination and visual field revealed a cup/disc 0.9 with significant field damage in strategy 10-2. Biomicroscopic ultrasonography showed asymmetric implantation of the IOL loops in the left eye (one loop in the ciliary sulcus and the other in the capsular bag). He underwent antiglaucomatous treatment with adequate control of intraocular pressure, with no need for surgical intervention.

Objective: To report a rare case of intraocular lens (ACIOL) opacification in the anterior chamber in an adolescent and to discuss the possible mechanism of its occurrence and the ways of its prevention. Case: A 16-year-old male underwent cataract surgery for developmental cataract with placement of a foldable posterior chamber IOL in the anterior chamber. There was subsequent opacification of the IOL, which was replaced by a scleral fixated posterior chamber intraocular lens. The post-operative visual acuity improved to 6/18. Conclusion: The posterior chamber IOL implanted in the anterior chamber can get opacified possibly due to postoperative intraocular inflammation.

ObjectiveIntraocular lens (IOL) repositioning using a closed-eye approach could be carried out in some selected cases. Our study focuses on the efficacy and safety of a IOL closed-eye repositioning technique using scleral suture, which is performed using a trocar as an intrastromal limbal guide.Methods and analysisThirty-one eyes of 31 patients with late IOL dislocation operated on between January 2015 and May 2017 were included in this retrospective non-comparative consecutive case series study. The patients had a single-piece in-the-bag dislocation or a 3-pieces in-the-bag or out-of-the-bag dislocation. The patients underwent an anterior vitrectomy and a scleral refixation in a closed chamber using a 10/0 polypropylene suture passed through a 25 Gauge trocar inserted in the anterior chamber.ResultsThe mean follow-up time was 19.54 months. Average preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.73 LogMar (±0.21 SD); while average postoperative BCVA was 0.27 LogMar (±0.23 SD). Fifteen patients underwent anterior pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) while 16 patients did not; moreover, two patients underwent PPV. Six patients had an increase of postoperative intraocular pressure, two patients had postoperative decentration, two patients had postoperative cystoid macular oedema, none of the patients had major complications such as retinal detachment, choroidal detachment, malignant glaucoma, irreversible corneal decompensation and endophthalmitis.ConclusionWe can affirm that our technique may be safe and useful in the case of 3-piece in-the bag or out-of the bag dislocated IOLs and also in the case of in-the-bag single-piece dislocated IOLs.
