The Yamane technique, a sutureless intrascleral fixation method for posterior chamber IOLs, has become a key skill for cataract and anterior segment surgeons dealing with eyes without capsular support. By creating two transconjunctival scleral tunnels and externalizing the haptics, it allows secure, well-centered IOL fixation without sutures or glue, reducing surgical time and long-term suture-related complications. Learning this technique equips surgeons with a versatile, minimally invasive option for secondary or complex IOL implantation, improving postoperative stability, refractive predictability, and patient outcomes.
