Description: Artisan lens clipped to the anterior surface of the iris. Key points to keep in mind regarding this technique: - The anterior chamber must be deep to avoid endothelial damage. - Proper centration is important. - Performing an iridectomy (IP) is necessary. - This technique requires a relatively large incision, making it more astigmatogenic than ICLs. - Postoperatively, avoid rubbing the eyes to prevent the implant from rubbing against the endothelium and to avoid unclipping the implant. - Postoperative monitoring with endothelial cell count is essential. - In the long term, if a cataract develops, the implant must be unclipped first to allow for cataract surgery.
