Purpose We present a case of a patient with Soemmering ring after cataract surgery and a potential complication that can arise as a result of its presence. Observations A patient with history of ruptured globe status after repair and lensectomy, complicated by aphakic secondary open angle glaucoma, was referred for management of second injury to the same eye. This injury resulted in Soemmerin...

Microphthalmos occupies a spectrum from a normal, but small globe, to a globe with multiple anterior and posterior segment abnormalities. This study examines 54 eyes of 27 patients who had bilateral microphthalmos and severe visual impairment or blindness. Congenital cataract was the commonest cause of severe visual impairment (44%), followed by presumed retinal or optic nerve dysplasia (30%) a...

Surgical timing for ectopia lentis has not been well described until now. The purpose of this study is to find a benchmark as to how far observation would be allowed in children with ectopia lentis when they and their families are reluctant to go through surgery. Retrospective review was made on 15 consecutive patients (14 children and one adult) with ectopia lentis in both eyes, seen at a refe...

A 39-year-old man with pathologic myopia and a dislocated native lens of the right eye underwent pars plana lensectomy and implantation of an iris-fixated 3-piece MA60MA foldable acrylic intraocular lens with -5.0 diopter power. The patient presented 11 months later with spontaneous haptic disinsertion from the optic. The meniscus (concave-convex) configuration of this iris-fixated lens may hav...


 Introduction: Traumatic cataract is one of the leading causes monocular blindness in children. The management pediatric traumatic challenging; growing size affected eyes and risk amblyopia further complicate things. timing removal IOL implantation remain controversial until today.
 Case Report: A thirteen-years-old boy came with his left eye punctured by a pencil tip. He visual acui...
