Scleral fixation of SING-IMT haptics might be useful in eyes with dislocated or not stable SING IMT. We believe that reporting our experience can help surgeons to fix SING IMT in complicated cases where a capsular bag rupture o disinsertion (like our case) can cause SING IMT decentration or worse its drop into the vitreous chamber. We speculate that GoreTex suture could assure firm fixation of the SING IMT and could reduce the risk of recurrent dislocations.
