Page 5: Intraocular lenses

HISTORY

• First IOL implantation– Sir Harold Ridley• November 29, 1949 at St. Thomas Hospital, London• 49 year woman• ECCE with in-the-bag placement• Biconvex perspex (Transpex 1) disc; 138 mg • Rayners Optical Company, Brighton• Substantial post op myopia (-24.0 Ds/ +6.0 Dcyl X 30 degrees)• IOL exchange in February, 1950 • Revealed only in 1951 at the Oxford Ophthalmic Congress

8.5 mm diameter, 2.4 mm thick, 108 mg

In 1795, Casamata implanted glass IOL which sank posteriorly.

Page 6: Intraocular lenses

– INSPIRATION• Inertness of intraocular plexiglass shards• A medical student, Steve Perry questioned him why was he not

replacing the lens after removal

– Approximately 1000 Ridley IOLs implanted in the next 12 years

– Complications*• Disclocation : approx 20%• Glaucoma : 10 %• Uveitis

– Went into disrepute• Strongly opposed by Sir Duke-Elders

Page 31: Intraocular lenses

LENS CHEMISTRY(Optic Materials)

• RIGID MATERIALS– PMMA

(Polymethylmethacrylate) – Water content <1%– Refractive index 1.49– Usually single piece– May be penetrated by

aqueous humor known as ‘glistenings’ (very rare)

• FLEXIBLE MATERIALS– Silicones – Acrylics

• Hydrophilic • Hydrophobic

– Hydrogels – Collamer

Page 32: Intraocular lenses

FLEXIBLE MATERIALS• Silicone– Polymers of silicone and oxygen– Since 1984; first material for foldable IOLs– Hydrophobic (contact angle with water of 99°)– 1.41 to 1.46– 3 piece– Thick optics (need larger incisons)– Handling is difficult; loading into injector – Bacterial adhesion– Anterior capsule rim opacifies quickly– Low PCO– Lowest threshold for YAG laser damage– Glistenings – Adherence of silicone droplets

Page 33: Intraocular lenses

HYDROPHOBIC ACRYLIC• Copolymers of acrylate and methacrylate• 1993 (Acrysof 3-piece lens)• Most successful IOLs today• Angle of contact with water is 73°• 3-piece or 1-piece designs• 1.44 to 1.55• Easy handling; prone to mechanical damage• At least a 2.2-mm incision• Low PCO rates• Good resistance to YAG laser• Photopsias • Glistenings • BSS packaging (reach 4% water content before implantation)

Page 34: Intraocular lenses

HYDROPHILIC ACRYLIC• Mixture of hydroxyethylmethacrylate (poly- HEMA) and hydrophilic

acrylic monomer• End of the 1980s• 1.43• 18 -26% water content • Contact angle with water is lower than 50°• Single piece• Easiest to handle; less mechanical/YAG laser damage• Sub-2-mm incisions• Higher PCO rate • Low resistance to capsular contraction• Calcium deposits

Page 35: Intraocular lenses

HYDROGEL

• Swell in water• 18% to 38% water content• Copolymers of methacrylate esters• Hydrophilic comonomer with a hydroxyl

functional group such as HEMA

ASPHERIC IOLS

Page 40: Intraocular lenses

ASPHERIC IOLs

• Human eye : Aspheric Optics

• Cornea : Positive spherical aberration

• Young crystalline lens : Negative spherical aberration

• Ageing crystalline lens : Increased positive spherical aberration

• spherical aberration ~ fourth power of the pupil diameter

Page 41: Intraocular lenses
Page 42: Intraocular lenses

Conventional IOL increasethe spherical aberration of the eye

Page 43: Intraocular lenses

HOW TO OVERCOME ?

• Strategy 1:– Lens with negative spherical aberrations to

balance the normally positive corneal spherical aberrations

• Strategy 2:– Lens with minimum spherical aberrations so that

no additional spherical aberration is added to the corneal spherical aberrations

Page 44: Intraocular lenses
Page 45: Intraocular lenses

• Anterior prolate surface– Tecnis, Advanced Medical Optics (AMO)

• Posterior prolate surface– Acrysof IQ, Alcon Laboratories

• Both Anterior and Posterior prolate surfaces– Akreos AO, SofPort AO and L161 AO, Bausch & Lomb

Page 46: Intraocular lenses
Page 47: Intraocular lenses

ASPHERIC IOLs• Need perfect centration

– Decentered IOLs can induce coma

• Decreased depth perception• More expensive• Need corneal topography for

optimal results• Not much difference in

photopic conditions and in older age group

• Not for previous hyperopic refractive surgery

• Better contrast sensitivity• Better mesopic vision• Night time driving

– AcrySof® IQ Aspheric IOL patients had an average increase of 130+ feet (vs the control lens) in which to stop after identifying a warning sign

• Better option for younger patients

Page 63: Intraocular lenses

• Refractive lenses (pupil dependent) ideal for – Light to moderate readers– Drive mostly during the day. – Play sports, – Use a computer frequently,

or – Activities that rely heavily

on intermediate vision

• Diffractive IOLs (pupil independent)for – Spend a lot of time reading – Detailed craft-work– Scotopic activities

• Movies• Night time driving

Page 64: Intraocular lenses

PATIENT SELECTION FOR MfIOLs(most important factor)

• Strong desire to be spectacle independent• Functional & occupational requirements– Occupational night drivers (avoid)

• Pre-existing ocular pathologies• Hypercritical & demanding patients– strictly avoided

• > 1.0 D astigmatism; irregular astigmatism (avoid)• Individuals with a monofocal lens in one eye• History of previous refractive Surgery• Previous PK• Chances of IOL dislocation

Page 65: Intraocular lenses

INTRAOPERATIVE EXCLUSION

• Significant vitreous loss during surgery• Pupil trauma during surgery• Zonular damage• Capsulorhexis tear• Capsular rupture• Eccentric CCC

Page 66: Intraocular lenses

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR MfIOLS

• Counselling (most important)• Accurate Biometry

– IOL master strongly recommended– immersion biometry better than applanation biometry

• Power Calculation– Plano to <+0.25– newer formulae

• Surgical Technique– Round, centered CCC completely overlapping the lens optic– Removal of all viscoelastic from behind the lens

Page 67: Intraocular lenses

MIXING AND MATCHING MULTIFOCAL IOLs

Stefan Pieh, MD; Herbert Weghaupt, Christian Skorpik MD; Contrast Sensitivityand glare disability with diffractive and refractive multifocal IOL. J Cataract and

Refract Surgery 1998; 24-659-662.

Page 68: Intraocular lenses

• Loss of contrast sensitivity• Glare and halos– scattering of light at the dividing line of the different

zones– improves with bilateral implantation, because of “a

bilateral summation” effect• Less satisfactory visualization of fundus- difficulty in

vitreo-retinal procedures• Requires Visual-Cortical Neuro-adaptation

Page 69: Intraocular lenses

ACCOMMODATIVE IOLs

• Monofocal IOL• Changes position inside the eye as the eye's

focusing muscle contracts• 1 mm of anterior movement of lens = 1.80 D

of accommodation• Mimicking the eye's natural ability to focus

Page 70: Intraocular lenses

• Principle of the Alvarez lens

– Two sinusoidal optical surfaces slide across one another along the

horizontal axis

• Anterior element with a spherical lens

• Two cubic optical surfaces for varifocal effect

– fitted by spring-like haptics fused at the rim

– movement perpendicular to the optical axis

• Implanted in the sulcus

Page 97: Intraocular lenses

PIGGYBACK IOLs• An intraocular lens that

“piggybacks” onto an existing intraocular lens or two IOLs are implanted simultaneously.

• First IOL is placed in the capsular bag.

• The second (piggyback) IOL is placed in the bag or sulcus.

Page 98: Intraocular lenses

• Easier to place 2nd IOL than to explant IOL & replace it– Lesser risk– More predictable– Can change power with time-by adding IOL or

explanting an IOL– Better image quality– Increased depth of focus

Page 99: Intraocular lenses

• COMPLICATIONS– Interlenticular opacification • (Interpseudophakos Elshnig’s pearls) • (RED ROCK SYNDROME)

– Unpredictable final IOL position

Page 100: Intraocular lenses

COMPLICATIONS RELATED TO IOLs

• MALPOSITIONS– Pupil capture– Decentration – Windshield wiper syndrome– Sunset syndrome

• PCO• Dysphotopsias – Positive : night time glare and halos– Negative : black ring more towards temporal field

Page 101: Intraocular lenses

• IOL material : acrylic > silicone• Refractive index : negative dysphotopsia more

with higher refractive indices• Smaller optic size • Square edge• Multifocal IOL• Iris-optic distance• Self resolving in a few weeks (cortical adaptation)

Page 102: Intraocular lenses

objects in the central visual field.– Improves central vision in ARMD.

Page 106: Intraocular lenses

• Telephoto system : 2-3 times magnification• Images in the central visual field – not be focused directly on the damaged macula– over other healthy areas of the central and

peripheral retina

Page 107: Intraocular lenses

• DRAWBACKS:– Surgically more challenging– Difficulty due to the size and

weight of the implant– Endothelial compromise– Blocked peripheral retinal visibility– Difficulty in future retinal laser

treatments– Loss of peripheral vision

Page 108: Intraocular lenses

TELESCOPIC IOL

• Next generation of implantable miniature telescopes.• Uses mirrors rather than glass lenses• 25 X magnification of central images• The LMI (Lipshitz Macular Implant)

– optics is 6.5mm – slightly thicker than a standard IOL

• Contains 2 miniature mirrors – 2.8 mm posterior doughnut shaped mirror that reflects light

anteriorly – 1.4 mm central retina–facing mirror which in turn focuses the

light on retina).• Does not affect peripheral vision.

Page 116: Intraocular lenses

• IOL and surgery related factors– anterior angulation– material of the haptic– material of the optic– Asphericity

• Individual Surgeon’s Technique– CCC size and centration– inadequate removal of visco-elastic from behind the

IOL– Bag to Sulcus shift
