Abstract
Sutureless intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is an advanced scleral fixation technique to eliminate the suture-related complications of erosion and exposure after conventional methods.1 Nonetheless, it is technically challenging. Crushing and pulling of the haptic of a threepiece IOL may cause deformation or breakage and hence tilting or dropping of the IOL. We introduce an additional step to enhance safety of the procedure.
