There are many different techniques for suture fixation of an IOL to the sclera: Yamane, Canabrava, Gore-Tex, belt loop, and more. This video shows a method of using a novel instrument to punch a small hole at the haptic-optic junction of a single-piece acrylic IOL. A prolene suture can then be passed through this hole, with a flange created on either side to fixate the IOL to the sclera. This can simplify these cases and allow us to salvage the existing IOL to restore vision.
