Inferior subconjunctival dislocation of posterior chamber intraocular lens after blunt trauma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traumatic subconjunctival dislocation of the posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) is a rare and emergency condition. Here, we report an interesting variation of rare case of inferior subconjuctival dislocation of PCIOL in a 75-year-old female patient following blunt trauma to her right eye with cow's head. All the previous literature with subconjuctival dislocation of PCIOL has reported the superior dislocation of intraocular lens. Inferior subconjunctival dislocation has never been reported in previous literature.

Traumatic Dislocation of Posterior Chamber Phakic Intraocular Lens into the Berger's Space
Dear Editor, Berger’s space is a potential compartment that can present behind the crystalline lens but is not open in normal situations. This space is formed by the posterior lens surface and anterior vitreous face and is circumscribed by Weiger’s ligament [1]. Except for some congenital abnormalities, Berger’s space is rarely involved in ocular disease because of vulnerability of structures s...

INTRODUCTION Ocular trauma can cause serious complications in eyes operated for cataract. CASE A 70-year- old lady had sustained blunt trauma to the left lower lid which resulted in a sub-conjunctival dislocation of the posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL). The patient had undergone an uneventful manual, small-incision, sutureless cataract surgery with implantation of a PCIOL for senile...

A 25-year-old man suffered an isolated lens anterior capsular tear and mature cataract formation following blunt injury to his right eye. One week after the trauma, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the right eye was hand motion. B-scan ultrasonography showed that the lens posterior capsule was intact; no vitreous foreign body or retinal pathology were observed. Orbital computed tomography...
متن کاملIsolated posterior capsular rupture following blunt head trauma
Closed-globe traumatic cataract is not uncommon in males in the pediatric age group. However, there is a relative paucity of literature on isolated posterior lens capsule rupture associated with closed-globe traumatic cataract. We report a case of a 6-year-old boy who presented with white cataract 1 day after blunt trauma to the forehead associated with posterior capsular rupture that was detec...

A Modified Iris Suture Technique for In-the-bag Intraocular Lens Dislocation Clinically significant posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) decentrations or dislocations occur in the aftermath of approximately 2% to 3% of cataract surgeries. Early inor out-of-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) dislocations arise within 3 months of surgery, primarily as a result of traumatic zonular or capsular r...
