| Core Tip |
The Yamane technique is a sutureless approach for scleral fixation of secondary intraocular lenses based on symmetric intrascleral haptic fixation anchored by terminal flange formation. This review addresses technical factors that directly influence fixation stability, including needle gauge selection, bevel orientation, scleral tunnel length and angulation, haptic externalization, and flange sizing. By linking mechanical principles with clinical experience, a practical methodological framework is proposed to reduce tilt, promote centration, and avoid postoperative slippage, while improving reproducibility in both surgical training and clinical research. |
