Aspheric Macular Lens for Complication in Cataract Surgery

Abstract: Introduction: In this case report, we demonstrate the application of an aspheric macular lens (Grieshaber, Alcon) for conducting posterior segment procedures after a posterior capsular rupture (PCR) occurrence during cataract surgery. Case Presentation: During a cataract surgery on a 70-year-old female patient, a PCR was identified, accompanied by the descent of the lens into the vitreous, and prompted subsequent interventions. This involved performing posterior-assisted levitation, anterior segment phacoemulsification, and anterior segment vitrectomy. Subsequently, due to the absence of a BIOM posterior viewing system in the operating room, an aspheric macular lens (Grieshaber, Alcon) was positioned on the patient’s eye. Subsequently, pars plana vitrectomy was performed, along with the extraction of residual lens cortical remnants. The procedure concluded with gradually inserting a 3-piece intraocular lens into the sulcus. Conclusion: When managing posterior capsular rupture, using an aspheric macular lens, such as the Grieshaber (Alcon), can be beneficial.
