Ultrasound Biomicroscopy in Scleral Fixation Using Gore-Tex Suture of a Subluxated Posterior Chamber Intraocular Lens.

All patients had ocular comorbidities, mainly glaucoma (n = 6) and pseudoexfoliation syndrome (n = 5).

Best corrected visual acuity improved from a median of 6/30 (0.7 logMAR) to a median of 6/12 (0.35 logMAR) (p = 0.06); postoperative astigmatism measured 0.91 ± 2.19 diopters.

Ultrasound biomicroscopy demonstrated well-balanced posterior chamber intraocular lenses fixation with no difference between the horizontal and vertical tilt measurements (p = 0.84; p = 0.94; p = 0.62; p = 0.085).

There was a high negative correlation between BCVA improvement and residual lens tilt (r = -0.76, p = 0.037).
