D’Agostino I, Parrulli S, De Angelis S, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective study comparing two different sutureless scleral fixation techniques. The sample consisted of patients who had sutureless scleral fixation IOL from October 2013 to May 2018 at “Luigi Sacco Hospital”, University of Milan. Comparison between two groups: Group 1 implanted with a 3-piece ALCON-MA60AC and group 2 implanted with a newly developed single-piece foldable IOL SOLEKO FIL-SSF. Thirty-one eyes were involved: group 1, 15 eyes of 15 patients, and group 2, 16 eyes of 14 patients. Group 2 IOL gives better results in the study due to less astigmatism after surgery and reduction of dislocation and bleeding during follow-up. The surgical technique seemed easier and faster: the specifically designed IOL appears to be a feasible solution for sutureless scleral fixation.
