A 57-year-old Asian male had initial right eye cataract surgery in 1998 at the age of 40 in Singapore. Background history included asthma and allergic rhinitis. He had an ocular history of right-sided Fuchs’ heterochromic iridocyclitis and secondary glaucoma. In 2002, approximately 48 months after his right eye PCIOL implant, the patient developed intermittent right-sided ocular inflammation. On examination, his vision was 6/6 and was found to have an in-bag superonasally displaced PCIOL, rubbing against the posterior surface of the iris and causing inflammation. In 2013, the PCIOL dislocated inferiorly. The patient underwent right eye PCIOL removal with pars plana vitrectomy and removal of IOL with secondary ACIOL placement. Postoperatively, his acuity was 6/6−2.
A 58-year-old female patient from Tambolaka, Southwest Sumba, Indonesia presented for a follow-up after mass cataract extraction surgery. She graduated from high school and lives as a farmer. Before undergoing mass cataract extraction surgery, she complained of blurred vision in both eyes for 1 year. Upon examination, best visual acuity after correction was 1/300 for the right eye and 1/60 for the left eye. There was no history of other ocular disease prior to surgery. The patient was diagnosed with bilateral mature senile cataract. She then underwent phacoemulsification surgery of her right eye on August 27, 2016 in a mass cataract surgery in the hospital using a regular foldable lens. One week after the surgical procedure, the patient came to the hospital for post-surgery checkup and complained of sudden blurred vision in her right eye. History of eye trauma was denied by the patient. She admitted that before the symptoms appeared, she had often carried heavy loads around 5–10 kg and drawn water from wells as her daily activities. Upon physical examination, blood pressure was 130/90 mm Hg and visual acuity of the affected right eye was 1/60. Ciliary injection was found in the right eye along with IOL in the anterior chamber (Fig. ). Another surgery was later performed on the patient to replace the dislocated IOL with a new one. During the second operation, the trailing haptic was found to be broken. Post-surgery visual acuity of the right eye was 6/21.
