It is an • incredible visual rehabilitation technique, where an • artificial intraocular lens is introduced into the affected • eye after the extraction of a cloudy natural lens restoring • vision to normal swiftly. • What are the signs that you need • IOLs? • Intraocular lenses are essential when a patient • experiences blurred vision, difficulty in dim light, • diplopia and focusing on a distant or near object, faded • colors, seeing hues of purple or blue color, uncontrolled • vulnerability to glare from sunlight or headlight of • vehicles, repeated changes in spectacles or contact lens • prescription, need of a brighter light for near work and • halos. • What are the types of pseudophakic • IOLs? • Multiple types of rigid or foldable IOLs are available made • from plastic, acrylic, or silicone. Your pseudophakic IOL • will depend on your prescription, lifestyle, and the cost of • IOL. IOLS can be placed in the anterior (between the iris • and cornea) or posterior chamber (usual place of natural • lens) of the eye. The most commonly used IOLS are • Standard monofocal IOLs, used for correction of far vision • only, some patients might need near vision spectacles • afterward. Unique Toric IOLs come in handy for patients • with cataracts with astigmatism. • Multifocal IOLs consist of several rings, and each ring has • a different power for near, intermediate, and far vision • respectively, human brains learn these rings quickly and • transition between them seamlessly. Accommodative IOLS • are nearest to the natural lens. These are responsive to eye • muscle movements and move forwards or backward for • near and distant objects respectively. Both of these reduce • the need for near-vision spectacles. • What to expect with IOL • implantation? • IOLs after their insertion become a perpetual part of your • eye. So, an eye exam will be conducted on you by an • ophthalmologist, consisting of; • Visual Acuity test to check your vision. • A slit lamp examination to observe your iris, anterior • chamber, and lens. • A retinal exam. • A biometry to determine the correct power of your • pseudophakia lens for you. • Before your surgery your doctor will question you about • your past medical history such as diabetes, hypertension, • and the use of any blood thinners, or alpha agonists like • tamsulosin. Post-surgery your eye will be bandaged • temporarily. You are allowed to leave the hospital after • half an hour but not drive for the time being.Immediately after surgery, there could be infection, • extreme pain, bleeding, redness and discharge from the • eyes, vision loss, fever, diplopia, increased eye pressure, • and seeing the edge of the lens. Other complications • include: - • Overcorrection or under-correction of vision • Faulty placement of the lens • Subluxation of lens leading to blurred vision • Angle closure in anterior chamber lens implant • Change in shape of the pupil • Accumulation or swelling in retina Irvine-Gass • syndrome • Retinal detachment • #mbbslectures #pseudophakia #opthalmology #mbbsfighters
