“…Corneal decompensation has been a theoretical concern with ACIOL placement since they were first introduced. The relatively low number of patients developing decompensation in this study is similar to that in nonvitrectomised eyes, 2,4,5,7 and is reassuring that with openloop anterior chamber lenses corneal problems only rarely occur, even in patients who have had multiple previous vitreoretinal procedures. Given that some patients had only 3 months of follow-up, a limitation of this study is that we may have underestimated the true rate of corneal decompensation.…”

“…Most recent studies looking at the outcome of ACIOL insertion have tended to look at outcomes following primary insertion after complicated cataract surgery/ intracapsular extraction 7,8 or they have compared secondary scleral-fixated lenses to ACIOLs, thus limiting the numbers in the ACIOL arm. 2,3 This study, looking at a large cohort of patients with long follow-up, demonstrates how effective ACIOL insertion can be as a secondary procedure, after vitrectomy, in patients aphakic for multiple different reasons.…”

“…Corneal decompensation has been a theoretical concern with ACIOL placement since they were first introduced. There are relatively less number of patients developing corneal decompensation[ 5 11 19 30 ] particularly if it is performed along with PPV as done in our study and it is reassuring that with open loop anterior chamber lenses corneal problems occur rarely, even in patients with multiple previous vitreoretinal procedures. Many also argue, conversely, that ACIOL surgery results in increased endothelial cell count loss, a substantial shortcoming for the procedure.…”
