PURPOSE:To assess the visual outcomes in subluxated cataractous lens with SFIOL or CT ring with PCIOL
METHODS:All the eyes that presented with subluxated crystalline lens due to various causes like trauma,Marfans syndrome,Pxf, high myopia and idiopathic.The main outcomes were measured with best corrected visual acuity.
RESULTS:In our study SFIOL was implanted in 23 patients out of 37,the indication was zonular dehiscence of more than 180.Out of which 12 cases were post blunt injury traumatic cataract,Pxf in 7 cases,HMC in 2 cases and 1 was idiopathic.Capsular tension ring was used in 10 cases with zonular dehiscence less than 180.The conditions were traumatic cataract,pseudoexfoliation,HM cataract and Marfan’s syndrome.At 6 weeks follow up 36 patients had best corrected vision more or equal to 6/18
CONCLUSION:All 3 techniques achieved excellent visual outcome during the follow up period of 6 weeks.All 36 patients were comparable in terms of best corrected visual outcome.
