Abstract
This chapter deals with the method, technique and difficulties encountered in intraocular lens (IOL) exchange when adopted for residual refractive error correction and for other reasons. It is often necessary to exchange an IOL and the reasons can vary from placement of wrong power of IOL to decentrations and dislocations. Depending on the clinical scenario, the surgeon should be well versed with the various techniques of IOL exchange. This chapter highlights the causes and the surgical details that the surgeon should be acquainted with in order to perform a successful IOL exchange.
