Retrieving the haptic of an IOL through a sclerotomy is a crucial step in the process of intrascleral fixation of an IOL.
Retrieving the haptic of an IOL through a sclerotomy is a crucial step in the process of intrascleral fixation of an IOL. Currently available microforceps not designed for this purpose may kink or crush the haptic. The tips of this forceps have been designed with a groove to atraumatically grasp the tip of the haptic horizontally to safely retrieve the haptic through a 23G sclerotomy for intrascleral placement. The surgeon can also use it for grasping the haptic when manipulating the IOL in the eye, as in the ‘handshake technique’ or for retrieval of a subluxated IOL.
