Abstract
Transscleral suture fixation plays a vital role during eye surgery, however postoperative complications still exist such as endophthalmitis, decentration or tilt of IOL (Intraocular Lens). Nowadays various sutureless intrascleral fixations of a Posterior Chamber IOL (PC-IOL) become popular in patients suffering insufficient capsular support. We enumerated and described 4 typical sutureless techniques of IOL fixation for aphakia. Further we also analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the 4 techniques.
