Patient NEEDS HELP after RLE with Panoptix - IOL Exchange
This nice patient was a high myope and underwent Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) to eliminate the need for glasses. She had the Panoptix Lens implanted in both eyes. While her first eye did very well from the start, the same couldn't be said for her second eye. She had significant capsular contraction and a decentered multifocal lens. She underwent a subsequent surgery to try and center the lens. During that surgery, a CTR was placed. However during placement, it wasn't positioned properly and sat partially behind the iris, and partially in front of the iris. During a maneuver to reposition the CTR, the patient started bleeding which hindered the surgeon's view. Afterwards, the patient experienced significant pain and very poor vision. She was referred to me to exchange her IOL and to assess her CTR for possible repositioning.
