Purpose: To report a case that presented with post blunt trauma cataract, zonular dialysis, cyclodialysis and iridodialysis and its successful single-sitting management. Methods: After lens aspiration, a capsular tension ring and multipiece intraocular lens were placed in the bag to support the zonules, a single eyelet Cionni ring was fixed in the sulcus to provide endocyclotamponade, and iridodialysis repair was done using the ‘stroke and dock technique’. Result: Successful centration of the intraocular lens, closure of the cleft and apposition of the iris root to its base were achieved at the end of the surgery. Conclusion: A single-sitting surgery correcting all the three dialysis can curtail the burden of repeated surgeries and their complications, providing early visual recovery and cost-effectivity.

Background and objectives: To evaluate anterior capsule opening (ACO) contraction and late intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation after cataract surgery in patients with weak or partially absent zonular support and assess methods of reducing these complications. Materials and methods: For this prospective study, we enlisted cataract surgery patients in our hospital with preoperative diagnoses of weak zonules. All patients received phacoemulsification surgery with implantation of a hydrophobic acrylic IOL and capsular tension ring (CTR). ACO reductions were measured for six months after enrolment. Data on late IOL dislocations were collected five years after enrolment of the last patient. Results: Fifty-three patients were enrolled from 2011 to 2015. Over the six-month active follow-up period, ACO area reduction was 23% in patients receiving CTRs of 11 mm diameter and 8% for patients with CTRs of 12 mm, with an overall mean of 15% reduction. Five years after the last patient was enrolled, seven patients (13%) had experienced late IOL-CTR-capsular bag dislocation. For these patients, the mean ACO reduction in the first six months of follow-up was 33%, including for those who had received neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd: YAG) anterior capsulotomies. Conclusion: Use of hydrophobic acrylic lenses and CTR reduces ACO contraction, with rates comparable to those after cataract surgery without ocular comorbidity. Our patients experienced a relatively high rate of late IOL-CTR-capsular bag dislocation. However, dislocated complexes were easily repositioned and few patients required IOL exchange. Frequent visits are warranted to promptly detect late complications of cataract surgery in patients with weak zonular support.

Introduction: To assess long-term outcomes of implantation of black diaphragm intraocular lens (BD IOL) in post-traumatic aniridia and aphakia due to eye rupture. Methods: This is a retrospective consecutive case series of 14 eyes with post-traumatic complete aniridia and aphakia treated with scleral fixation BD IOL. Measurements included ophthalmological comorbidities, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), complications, and postoperative interventions. The average postoperative follow-up period was 36 months. Results: BCVA improved in 6 cases, was stable in 6 cases and worsened in 2 cases. The lens was well centered in 13 cases. Glaucoma was diagnosed in six cases developed, and three of them required Ahmed valve implantation. One lens developed opacity. The cornea was decompensated in 6 cases, while two of them required penetrating keratoplasty. Conclusion: Implantation of BD IOL in eyes with severely traumatized eyes enables reconstruction of the anterior segment and some functional restoration, although many complications may arise during the longitudinal follow-up.

Introduction: Asymptomatic traumatic intra-lenticular foreign body is very uncommon and few case reports have been published.Objective: To report a case of post-traumatic intra-lenticular foreign body and use of Scheimpflug imaging in its management. Case: A 41-year-old male with history of injury to right eye during hammering a chisel 1 year back presented with decreased vision since 6 months. An intra-lenticular foreign body was found on slit lamp bio-microscopy and was confrmed by Scheimpflug imaging. Posterior capsule was intact on Scheimpflug imaging. Thus, Scheimpflug imaging helps in exact localization of the foreign body in the intralenticular space or behind the iris. We ruled out other foreign bodies by x-ray and ultrasonography of the orbit. The foreign body with post-traumatic cataract was removed using phacoemulsification and three piece foldable intraocular lens was implanted in the bag. Conclusion: An intra- lenticular foreign body may remain asymptomatic for months. Scheimpflug imaging can be useful in its localization. It can be removed during phacoemulsification.
