There is no general consensus on the optimal choice of intraocular lenses (IOLs) or fixation methods in eyes with inadequate capsular support. The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term safety, efficacy and refractive status of combined vitrectomy and transscleral suture fixation of posterior chamber (PC) IOLs in the management of posteriorly dislocated lenses in Taiwan.
