Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report a case of capsular bend-related entrapment of liquefied after-cataract that resulted in late postoperative capsular block syndrome in a 56-year-old man. Slitlamp examination showed a capsular bend formation at the square edge of the optic. Superiorly, leakage in the capsular bend resulted in fluid extending into Soemmering's ring, although communication with the anterior chamber was limited by the capsular bend. Fluid was seen between the lens and posterior capsule. |
