Title: Capsular Tension Ring CTR Repositioning
Author: Austin Nakatsuka, MD, Meghan Sharma, MD
Date: 6/24/2024
Description: This is a case where the capsular tension ring was positioned in the wrong place (it was in the anterior chamber and sulcus instead of the capsular bag). I repositioned in into the capsular bag without complications but it shows how difficult that can be when the ring has already been deployed/injected.
