We report a technique for sutureless fixation of standard 3-piece posterior chamber intraocular lenses (PC IOLs) in the ciliary sulcus in eyes without capsule support, which we have used in cases of subluxated and luxated cataract and for secondary IOL implantation. Fixation of the haptics in a limbus-parallel scleral tunnel allows exact centration and provides axial stability of the PC IOL to prevent distortion. The technique uses uncomplicated maneuvers for standard 3-piece PC IOL fixation without the need for special haptic architecture or preparation.

Fixation of PC IOL haptics in a limbus-parallel scleral tunnel provided exact centration and axial stability of the IOL and prevented distortion and subluxation in most cases.

The results indicate that cataract surgery in eyes with early AMD is not a causative factor in neovascular AMD.

The data suggest that the few ganglion cells that survive the elevated intraocular pressure associated with loss of visual function display morphologic changes that are manifested both on the cell body and on their intraretinal processes, including axons and dendrites.

Every new active exposure to hypobaric hypoxia in the ascent phase induced a decrease in the IOP parallel to the PO2 decrease and to the level of acclimatization. The results from our study suggest that IOP changes are related to hypoxia-induced respiratory alkalosis and acclimatization stage, which could be used as a simple mobile screening test for acclimatization level to reveal acute mountain sickness and its severe consequences.
