To report on the clinical outcomes of rescuing dislocated Akreos intraocular lenses (IOLs) with a closed continuous-loop suture technique (CCS).

A retrospective review of patients who underwent CCS for rescuing dislocated IOL between June 2017 and March 2023. The clinical primary outcomes were best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), IOL positioning, and complications, assessed both preoperatively and for at least 3mo postoperatively.

Nine patients (9 eyes) were reviewed with an average age of 48.67y (range, 18-67y), and a follow-up period averaging 11.67mo (ranging from 3 to 36mo). Post-surgery, the IOLs were well-centered and stable. The preoperative BCVA was 1.03±0.79 logMAR, improving to 0.5±0.48 logMAR at the last follow-up (P<0.05). Preoperative IOP of 20±6.84 mm Hg and postoperative IOP 16.11±5.65 mm Hg (P=0.182). The mean corneal endothelial cell density decreased from 2177±587 to 2080±581 cells/mm² in five patients (P=0.71) and the endothelial cell loss rate is 4.56%.

CCS is an effective, safe, and minimally invasive method for rescuing and stabilizing dislocated Akreos IOLs.
