Abstract
We report a case in which an intraocular lens dislocated entirely with in the capsular bag. The patient was myopic with a large anterior segm ent. A standard 5 mm x 6 mm phaco profile intraocular lens was found t o be completely dislocated on the fifth postoperative day. The disloca ted lens was replaced with another posterior chamber intraocular lens sutured at the ciliary sulcus.
