摘要
Over a nine-year period, our practice removed 1,091 intraocular lenses. The most common type of lens requiring explantation was the closed-loop anterior chamber lens (58.6%). The Stableflex lens represented the largest percentage of all removed lens types (28.8%). The number of closed-loop anterior chamber lenses requiring removal peaked in 1988 and then gradually declined. All other lens styles have shown gradually increasing removal rates. Older style iris-fixated lenses and rigid anterior chamber lenses, which have not been implanted for several years, have increasing removal rates. Late breakage of fixational polypropylene sutures with pupil-supported iris-fixated lenses have occurred in five cases; the average time from implantation to suture breakage was 112 months.
