Capsular tension rings: update on endocapsular support devices.

Endocapsular support devices, such as the capsular tension ring, and other newer scleral-fixated devices have become increasingly important in the management of compromised zonules during cataract surgery. Cataract removal in patients with significant zonulopathy presents many challenges with increase risk of intraoperative and postoperative complications. The original capsular tension ring was the beginning of a progressive evolution in the management of zonular weakness. Newer devices, which permit scleral-suture fixation, include the modified capsular tension ring and the capsular tension segment.

Restoration of accommodation.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review examines the current status of accommodation restoration concepts with reference to the recent, published peer-reviewed literature with an emphasis on physiological aspects of accommodation and presbyopia. RECENT FINDINGS: The mechanisms of accommodation and the causes of presbyopia are described. The physiological amenability of the accommodative structures in the presbyopic eye to accommodation restoration is discussed. General theoretical concepts of accommodation restoration are introduced. The methods that have been used to assess accommodation restoration, including the use of animal models, drug stimulated accommodation, subjective near-vision tests and objective measurements, are reviewed. SUMMARY: While physiological and clinical evidence supports the notion that accommodation can be restored to the presbyopic eye, progress in this potentially exciting area is hindered by the scarcity of good, large-scale clinical studies using objective measurement techniques to evaluate the outcomes of accommodation restoration concepts.

Phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in nanophthalmic eyes: report of a medium-size series.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the outcomes in nanophthalmic eyes that had phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. SETTING: Toronto Western Hospital, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. METHODS: Six nanophthalmic eyes of 4 patients had uneventful phacoemulsification and posterior chamber IOL implantation with a retrobulbar or peribulbar block. All operations were performed by 1 surgeon. Patients ranged in age from 41 to 70 years. RESULTS: The visual acuity remained stable or improved in all 6 eyes. Glaucoma control was maintained or improved in 5 eyes. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that small-incision cataract surgery, although challenging, is safe and diminishes the need for prophylactic sclerotomies in these high-risk eyes.
