A 49-year-old Caucasian male presented with a dense right-sided cortical cataract in 2007 at the age of 44. HIV infection was diagnosed in 1997. His ocular history included bilateral keratoconus, bilateral uveitis, and multifocal choroiditis, which had been treated with eight intravitreal triamcinolone (IVTA) injections previously and was quiescent at the time of his cataract surgery. His right eye vision was 3/60 preoperatively. He underwent uncomplicated phacoemulsification cataract surgery and implantation of a 15.5D Alcon SN60WF into the bag. Postoperatively, his acuity improved to 6/12. Subsequently, he underwent right eye vitrectomy for long-standing vitritis in 2008. Seventy-five months after his initial PCIOL implant, he represented with visual loss in the right eye due to an in-bag IOL dislocation. He underwent a pars plana vitrectomy and removal of IOL. He was left aphakic and managed with a hard contact lens. On the last review in June 2014, his right eye corrected visual acuity was 6/7.5.
A-77-year old woman complained of blurred vision in her left eye. She had undergone cataract surgery with implantation of an IOL 13 years earlier without any complications. She had been diagnosed with presumed sarcoidosis about 15 years earlier, and the mild iritis had been controlled by steroid eyedrops.\nHer BCVA at presentation was 20/30 in the left eyes. The IOP was 15 mmHg and 14 mmHg in the right and left eyes, respectively. Slit-lamp examination revealed no cells in the anterior chamber, but a nasally dislocated in-the-bag IOL was detected (). Slit-lamp examination showed no pseudoexfoliation or vitreous opacities, and ophthalmoscopy showed pigmented chorioretinal atrophy in the periphery. The subfoveal EZ was disrupted in the OCT images.\nShe underwent 27-gauge PPV and the one piece in-the bag PMMA IOL was removed through a 7.5-mm corneal scleral incision without PFCL in September 2017. A CZ70BD IOL (Alcon, Texas, USA) was implanted and fixed with scleral sutures as in the other cases. Thereafter, the PC-IOL was stable (), and the BCVA has remained 20/30 for 2 years without obvious signs of iritis. The peripheral pigmented chorioretinal atrophy and mild macular degeneration could be clearly observed after the surgery (). The visual field was constricted due to the chorioretinal atrophy ().
