Three-piece intraocular lenses (IOLs) rely on the stability of the haptic-optic junction, as rotation at this junction results in a tilted IOL. With intrasclerally fixed (ISF) IOLs, a phenomenon recognized more recently is a postoperative, significant optic tilt. Our video shows the phenomenon, intraoperative approach to risk reduction, and techniques for surgical correction of tilted ISF IOLs.
