How Intraocular Lens Implantation (Simultaneous/Staged) is performed
Before surgery, the power of the intraocular lens is calculated based on biometry. The lens is usually implanted through a small incision under a microscope, preferably placed in the capsular bag; if capsular support is insufficient, extracapsular placement or scleral/iris fixation can be considered, and anterior vitrectomy or posterior capsule management is performed as appropriate. Postoperative monitoring includes lens centration, intraocular pressure, and inflammation, with the goal of restoring imaging and facilitating subsequent refractive correction. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
