Filter by:By comparing the preoperative data and postoperative data of 9 patients of microspherophakia, we concluded that the 6-point transscleral suture fixation of a 3-looped haptics posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) through scleral pockets was a feasible method of PC-IOL implantation in the surgical treatment of microspherophakia.
Marfan syndrome is characterized by musculoskeletal manifestations, cardiovascular disease and ocular abnormalities, particularly ectopia lentis. Diagnosis depends on clinical evaluation, family history and molecular data: mutation in the fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1). Ectopia lentis is the most common ocular manifestation in Marfan syndrome with FBN1 mutation and is relatively specific to this disease when associated with other features. However, clinical examinations for identifying ectopia lentis have not really been codified. The purpose of this study is to describe a 5-grade classification of increasing severity for ectopia lentis based on clinical examination and to evaluate the predictive value for the early grades of ectopia lentis in order to help characterize this major clinical diagnosis criterion.
