A. Docking of the 8ā0 polypropylene suture needle with a 29-gauge needle; B. The externalized suture end at the 2:00 position is passed through one closed haptic of the IOL and tied; C. The suture end at the 8:00 position is passed through the diagonally opposite closed haptic of the IOL; DāH. Z-shaped intrascleral fixation technique [3].

Schematic illustrations of IOL dislocation.
(A) Dislocation of the IOL-bag complex due to capsular bag necrosis syndrome. (B) Supernasal dislocation of the IOL, with invisible anterior capsulorhexis margin. (C-D) The IOL is embedded in the pupil, causing pupil deformation. (E) The IOL-bag complex dislocates anteriorly, making contact with the corneal endothelium. (F-G) Capsular contraction causes downward dislocation of the IOL-bag complex, with the white organizing membrane of the anterior capsule visible. (H) Superior dislocation of the IOL, with the inferior zonule elongated and partially ruptured.
