Purpose: To establish the modifications in techniques for endocapsular ring insertion and its scleral fixation in subluxated cataract that causes minimal stress to capsulo-zonular complex. To assess the intraoperative performance and post-operative outcomes with our modified techniques. Design: Prospective, interventional, non-comparative case series. Methods: The study population consisted of 29 eyes with various degree of subluxated cataract that underwent endocapsular ring implantation with techniques modified by us followed by phacoemulsification and implantation of intraocular lens (IOL) in the capsular bag. Main outcome measures were success rate of endocapsular ring implantation, intraoperative performance, IOL centration and best corrected visual acu... view more»
