My intraocular lens has moved out of position. How can it be treated?
When an IOL moves out of its normal position, vision may become blurry or objects may appear doubled. Treatment may involve repositioning or exchanging the lens. If there is insufficient tissue to support it, scleral fixation may be considered. The appropriate technique depends on the condition of the IOL and the structures inside the eye.

32	I had LASIK or LASEK years ago, but my vision has become blurry again. Can I have another procedure? A second procedure may be possible, but the first step is to identify why your vision has changed.

24	Do I need a new IOL if I develop a secondary cataract? What is commonly called a “secondary cataract” is usually posterior capsule opacification (PCO). When treatment is needed, it can often be managed with a YAG laser capsulotomy rather than an IOL excha...
23	Can an intraocular lens still be exchanged many years after cataract surgery? An older IOL may still be exchanged, but surgery can become more challenging as adhesions develop between the lens and capsular bag over time. We compare the likely benefits and risks of exchange and ...
22	Is it possible that my vision will not fully recover even after successful retinal surgery? Yes. Even when surgery successfully reattaches the retina, vision may not return to its previous level. Recovery can be limited if the macula, which is responsible for central vision, has remained det...
