However, creating the bowl was challenging.Methods: A factory-made elastic silicone sheet (ESS), a ready-to-use alternative for the posterior capsule of the lens, was prepared. We used this sheet to salvage and support the dislocated/subluxated lenses in 11 eyes of nine patients.Results: We could use a sheet immediately after we opened the package. In all the cases, we could insert a sheet beneath the lens and PEA performed at the center of the operative field. There was only one incident where the lens could not be placed onto the disc at the first attempt, but the lens was eventually salvaged. There was no risk of rupture during PEA, and the ESS could be removed completely without any complications.Conclusion: The factory-made ESS described here can be used for salvaging dislocated/subluxated lenses and safely performing PEA.Keywords: lens dislocation, perfluorocarbon, alternative posterior capsule of the lensAkamine RMiyamoto NKiritoshi SKusaka MAkimoto MDove Medical Pressarticlelens dislocationperfluorocarbonalternative posterior capsule of the lensOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 769-774 (2021)
