Abstract:
PURPOSE:Our purpose is to describe a safe and easy technique for the removal of the BrightOcular cosmetic iris implants. Our technique involves cutting the implant into five parts rather than removal as a whole with less intraocular manipulation and no rotation of the implant. METHODS:We have used this technique in two eyes of a 28-year-old patient who presented to us with progressive drop of vision and acute attacks of ocular pain. Best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCVA) was found to be 6/18 and 6/9 on Snellen chart in her right and left eyes, respectively. Intraocular pressure was 40 mmHg and 20 mmHg in the right and left eyes, respectively, with visual field and retinal nerve fiber layer changes in the right eye. RESULTS:After removal of both implants, 1-week post-operative BCVA improved to 6/6 bilaterally. After 3 months of regular follow-ups, IOP remains uncontrolled in the right eye despite medical treatment, and surgical intervention is planned. CONCLUSION:Our five-slice technique for removal of iris implants can be done effectively through a small corneal wound thus avoiding most wound-related problems. Our technique also includes no rotation or excessive manipulation inside the anterior chamber and can be carried out easily and safely with both the NewColorIris and BrightOcular implant designs.
