PURPOSE: To report a case of endocapsular hematoma that cleared sponta
neously without intervention. METHODS: We examined and followed up a 6
8-year-old man who developed an endocapsular hematoma 2 1/2 years afte
r a standard extracapsular cataract extraction with posterior chamber
intraocular lens implantation. RESULTS: After several months without i
ntervention, the endocapsular hematoma completely resolved. CONCLUSION
S: Observation may be a rational treatment option in some patients wit
h endocapsular hematoma.
