Complications of sulcus placement of single-piece acrylic intraocular lenses

Intraocular lenses designed solely for the capsular bag should not be placed in the ciliary sulcus. Backup IOLs in appropriate powers, sizes, and designs should be available for every cataract procedure. The development, investigation, and supply of IOLs specifically designed for placement in eyes that lack adequate capsule support represent clinically important endeavors for ophthalmology and the ophthalmic industry.
