Aphakia is either posttraumatic or after complicated cataract surgery with partial or total loss of capsular support. Patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups based on the surgical intervention they received: Group A (Yamane technique) and Group B (transscleral prolene mesh technique). All patients were followed up for 3\u2009months after surgery. Postoperative visual acuity, refraction, IOL centration, and complications were documented during the follow\u2010up period.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Patients in both groups were comparable for both ages, 55.78 (\u00b1\u20098.63) for Group A and 59.10 (\u00b1\u20099.95) for Group B, and gender. In Group A, 50% were males and 50% were females. In Group B, 60% were males and 40% were females. After excluding complicated cases, both groups were compared for preoperative and postoperative results (UCVA, BCVA, IOP, refractive errors, and IOL tilt). The two groups had no statistically significant differences (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      value\u2009\u2265\u20090.05). Moreover, refractive errors (sphere and cylinder) showed a strong negative correlation to IOL tilt of more than 5\u00b0 for both groups. Seven patients out of twenty were complicated in Group A. Three patients had IOL tilt &gt;\u20095\u00b0, 2 had IOL decentration &gt;\u20090.2\u2009mm, and two had pseudophakic reverse pupillary block.
