Quadruple scleral flap
Quadruple Flap Technique (Group B) A 360-degree peritomy will be performed to expose the underlying sclera. Following evisceration of the ocular contents, careful hemostasis will be achieved. Four muscular-tendinous flaps will be developed from the recti muscles. These flaps will be dissected under minimal tension to preserve their vascular supply. The prepared flaps will be draped over the implant in a manner that the edges slightly overlap, ensuring complete coverage. The flaps will be sutured together using silk sutures, securing the implant in place.The conjunctiva will be meticulously closed over the muscle flaps with continuous absorbable sutures to enhance the healing process and minimize postoperative discomfort.
Double scleral flap
The double flap technique, which involves the creation of two scleral flaps to encase and secure the implant, has been a standard approach in many surgical settings. This method aims to cover the implant adequately, thereby minimizing exposure risks and enhancing the potential for implant motility.
