In this video, we share pearls for piggyback IOL implantation. Piggyback IOL implantation can be performed during cataract surgery, or refractive lens exchange and IOL insertion to manage high IOL power or as a secondary procedure following the initial IOL implantation to manage refractive surprise. With the introduction of Sulcoflex IOL, the use of piggyback implantation for correction of residual refractive errors appears to be increasing in popularity.
