Hi. Can The Cells Inside The Lens Bag Be Transplanted?
Question: Hi. Can the cells inside the lens bag be transplanted? My recent IOL implant was a complete failure and I would like to put my lawsuit money to good use. I will pay anything to reverse the surgery
Brief Answer:
No, they can't
Detailed Answer:
Dear sir,
I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but unfortunately the lens has to be placed as a whole not as individual cells or parts...
Since your IOL is misplaced, then the solution of choice is to have it removed then placed again into its right place.
I hope you find this helpful.
Regards

Thank you so much for answering the question and with patience! I’m not sure exactly if it is misplaced, but based on my five symptoms I mentioned in my medical history section, would you conclude that the lens is misplaced?

Every doctor that has examined the eye has said that I have no vitreous hemorrhages and the retina has a tuft but it is okay.
The doctors have also examined the IOL post-surgery (3 months now) and have found that it is perfectly placed. No doctor has been helpful so far. I just need an answer. Please. This shaking is torture every single day. Thank you.

Brief Answer:
Exclusion of other causes
Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, hello again.. Since all the previous causes were excluded then I would recommend that you get a blood test for blood glucose levels both fasting and postprandial along with a blood test for thyroid hormonal profile including T3, T4 and TSH to exclude diabetes and hyperthyroidism.. If these tests came back normal then you should get a ct scan to exclude abnormalities of optic nerve and pituitary gland. I hope you find this helpful
