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 ().
A 45-year-old Caucasian male presented with right eye cataract secondary to previous bilateral uveitis in 2008 at the age of 39. Background history includes type 2 diabetes diagnosed in 2011. Ocular history included herpetic keratouveitis with bilateral acute retinal necrosis diagnosed in 2006 (now quiescent) and bilateral relapsing remitting macular oedema treated with multiple IVTA injections. His preoperative right eye vision was counting fingers, and he underwent an uncomplicated phacoemulsification with a 19.0D Alcon SN60WF PCIOL inserted into the bag. Postoperatively, the patient continued to have intermittent severe macular oedema and received three further right eye IVTA injections between 2008 and 2013. His right eye vision has improved to 6/9 by February 2013; however, some right eye PCIOL dislocation was noted. Sixty-four months after his initial PCIOL implant, the patient was found to have right eye in-bag PCIOL dislocation and a vision of 6/24−1 in June 2013. Two months later, he underwent a right-sided anterior approach IOL extraction and secondary anterior chamber IOL implantation. On last review, his right eye vision was 6/36.
