Glued IOL – Secondary IOL Implantation
Glued Intraocular Lens (IOL) implantation is an advanced surgical technique used for patients who have lost their natural lens support due to trauma, complications from previous surgeries, or other eye conditions. This procedure is performed at Desai Eye Hospital to restore clear vision when conventional IOL placement is not possible.
During the surgery, a specialized intraocular lens is secured using fibrin glue instead of traditional sutures. The lens is carefully positioned and stabilized within the scleral (white part of the eye) tunnels, ensuring long-term fixation and preventing dislocation. The procedure provides excellent visual outcomes, especially for patients who require a secondary IOL implantation due to complications like a dislocated lens or aphakia (absence of the natural lens).
At Desai Eye Hospital, Glued IOL surgery is performed with precision and expertise, offering patients improved vision and stability without the need for sutures.
