Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
Objective: To study the clinical profile of patients with crystalline lens or intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation due to any cause in north Indian population. Methods: This was a prospective interventional study conducted in a tertiary care hospital in north India. All patients planned for Pars Plana Vitrectomy for subluxated/dislocated lens/IOL, in the Department of Ophthalmology of the institute were included in the study. A total 32 patients were included in the study. Results: Normal IOP was among majority of patients (81.3%) and raised was in 18.8% patients. Corneal edema was the most common preo-operative complication (15.6%) followed by itreous hemorrhage (12.5%) and inflammation (6.3%).Raised IOP was in 25% patients in postoperative and corneal decompensation was in 18.8% patients. However, inflammation was in 15.6% patients in postoperative and Cystoid macular edema was in 9.4% patients. Conclusion: Subjects managed by pars planavitrectomy and retrieval of dislocated crystalline lens/IOL with IOL repositioning or IOL exchange had satisfactory recovery without significant complications.
