Abstract
The search for new techniques of fixation intraocular lenses (IOL) cases of its dislocation or inadequate capsular support continues to be an actual problem. The most physiological is the IOL position in the posterior chamber. In this article, a new method for scleral IOL fixation using limbal mini-pockets proposed by the authors will be presented.
