title: Secondary lens implantation with sulcus fixation in intracapsular aphakes.
abstract: I conducted a retrospective study on nine secondary intraocular lenses placed on the vitreous face with loop fixation in the ciliary sulcus area. In this small number of cases with long-term follow-up, the lenses remained well fixated with minimal complications. The procedure should be approached cautiously for a select group of patients because of a possibility of dislocation.
