简介:目的评价在超声乳化白内障吸除术中植入囊袋张力环治疗白内障合并晶状体半脱位的效果.方法对15例16眼白内障合并晶状体半脱位患者行超声乳化白内障吸除术,术中将囊袋张力环植入囊袋内.结果人工晶状体正位14眼,人工晶状体轻度偏斜2眼.术后随访3个月~9个月,矫正视力<0.1者2眼,0.1~0.4者5眼,0.5~0.9者6眼,1.0~1.5者3眼.结论在超声乳化白内障吸除术中植入囊袋张力环是治疗白内障合并晶状体半脱位患者安全有效的方法,可以防止人工晶状体的偏位,减少手术并发症.
简介:目的对马凡综合症伴晶状体半脱位患者行超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体植入合并张力环植入或超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体悬吊两种手术方法的探讨和分析.方法对3例(3眼)合并晶状体半脱位(脱位范围<1/2象限)的患者行超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体植入合并张力环植入术;对10例(11眼)合并晶状体半脱位(脱位范围>1/2象限)的患者行超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体悬吊术,分析手术前后视力及并发症.结果随访3-24个月,13例患者视力有不同程度的提高,未发生视网膜脱离及葡萄膜炎等并发症.结论超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体植入合并张力环植入或超声乳化吸除联合人工晶体悬吊术是进行马凡综合症晶状体半脱位治疗的有效手术方式,临床应根据晶状体脱位情况的不同选择不同的手术方式.
简介:目的探讨囊袋张力环植入下的晶状体半脱位超声乳化手术的安全性及有效性。方法晶状体半脱位患者26例(28眼)。做透明角膜切口,连续环撕前囊,水分离后,将张力环植入晶状体囊袋内,使囊袋稳定居中,以行晶状体乳化抽吸,然后囊袋内置人人工晶状体。结果26例(28眼)全部成功行超声乳化手术并囊袋内植入人工晶状体,术后随访最佳矫正视力较术前明显提高(P〈O.05),23只眼人工晶状体位置良好,3只眼人工晶状体轻度倾斜但无明显偏中心,2只眼人工晶状体轻度偏中心。无严重并发症发生。结论囊袋内张力环植入可稳定晶状体囊袋,保证超声乳化手术及人工晶状体囊袋内植入的顺利进行,并可维持人工晶状体的长期稳定性,该手术方式安全有效。
