Intrascleral haptic fixation of posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) was recently reported. However, it has the potential to cause complications such as pupillary capture, vitreous hemorrhage, and refractive errors because the IOL haptic is fixated intrasclerally via the ciliary sulcus. Video will present a pars plana intrascleral haptic fixation technique and its advantages.
