Background and objectives: To evaluate anterior capsule opening (ACO) contraction and late intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation after cataract surgery in patients with weak or partially absent zonular support and assess methods of reducing these complications. Materials and methods: For this prospective study, we enlisted cataract surgery patients in our hospital with preoperative diagnoses of weak zonules. All patients received phacoemulsification surgery with implantation of a hydrophobic acrylic IOL and capsular tension ring (CTR). ACO reductions were measured for six months after enrolment. Data on late IOL dislocations were collected five years after enrolment of the last patient. Results: Fifty-three patients were enrolled from 2011 to 2015. Over the six-month active follow-up period, ACO area reduction was 23% in patients receiving CTRs of 11 mm diameter and 8% for patients with CTRs of 12 mm, with an overall mean of 15% reduction. Five years after the last patient was enrolled, seven patients (13%) had experienced late IOL-CTR-capsular bag dislocation. For these patients, the mean ACO reduction in the first six months of follow-up was 33%, including for those who had received neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd: YAG) anterior capsulotomies. Conclusion: Use of hydrophobic acrylic lenses and CTR reduces ACO contraction, with rates comparable to those after cataract surgery without ocular comorbidity. Our patients experienced a relatively high rate of late IOL-CTR-capsular bag dislocation. However, dislocated complexes were easily repositioned and few patients required IOL exchange. Frequent visits are warranted to promptly detect late complications of cataract surgery in patients with weak zonular support.

Capsular Bag

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.
