Capsular bag fixation with an MCTR using 9-0 polypropylene and in-the-bag IOL implantation had good long-term visual outcomes with an acceptable rate of serious postoperative complications in eyes with subluxated lenses. This approach allows preservation of the natural compartments of the eye and placement of an IOL in its most physiological position. However, considering a 17% rate of IOL decentration requiring surgical intervention, long-term stability with nonbiodegradable suture materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene as well as decentration rates following sutured or sutureless scleral fixation should be compared.
