Intraocular Lens Calcification After Pseudophakic Endothelial Keratoplasty - 17/01/23
Résumé |
PURPOSE |
To determine the incidence and to document risk factors for intraocular lens (IOL) calcification after pseudophakic endothelial keratoplasty.
METHODS |
We retrospectively studied 2700 consecutive penetrating, anterior lamellar and endothelial keratoplasties carried out between December 1992 and June 2022 at the National Eye Hospital, Paris, France.
DESIGN |
Retrospective cohort study.
RESULTS |
All IOL calcification cases were associated with endothelial keratoplasty. Out of 588 endothelial keratoplasty procedures, 576 eyes were pseudophakic at the end of surgery. Fourteen cases of IOL calcification were observed during follow-up. The cumulative incidence of IOL calcification after endothelial keratoplasty was 4.5%±1.3% at 60 months. Hydrophilic acrylic IOL material (P < .001) and use of SF6 for anterior chamber tamponade (P = .001) were significantly and independently associated with the cumulative incidence of IOL calcification.
CONCLUSION |
The incidence of IOL calcifications seems to be around 5%. Ophthalmologists should avoid hydrophilic acrylic IOLs in patients with endothelial disorders. When the patient already has a hydrophilic IOL, SF6 should be avoided. The only effective treatment is IOL exchange.
