| Titel | Case report: Intraocular lens exchange for IOL opacification after vitreous haemorrhage |
| Abstract Nr. | 123 |
| Doel | We describe late postoperative opacification of a hydrophylic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) after a vitreous haemorrhage. The vitreal bleeding occurred 9 months after uneventful phacotrabeculectomy. The etiology of the haemorrhage is unknown. The IOL was explanted 20 months after phacotrabeculectomy and replaced by an iris-claw IOL. Light and electron microscopy results of the explanted IOL will be reported. This is the first case of IOL opacification after vitreous haemorrhage. |
