Surgical management of negative dysphotopsia

Negative dysphotopsia was associated with acrylic or silicone IOLs of either square- or round-edge design. Negative dysphotopsia was reduced, eliminated, or prevented when the IOL optic overlaid the anterior capsulotomy rather than when the capsule edge overlaid the optic. Bag-to-sulcus IOL exchange and reverse optic capture were highly successful in managing or preventing negative dysphotopsia.
