Abstract
Posterior dislocation of IOLs has been reported following Nd:YAG laser for anterior capsule contraction in only 3 cases and these involved plate haptic silicone lenses; while the dislocation of IOLs into the vitreous cavity following posterior Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy have been reported in plate haptic silicone lenses and single piece hydrophilic acrylic (polymacon) lenses. We report a patient who suffered the delayed dislocation of an injectable hydrophilic acylic IOL (SlimFlex-m 123 IOL, PhysIOL, Liège, Belgium) following combined Nd:YAG laser anterior and posterior capsulotomy. We also explore the factors that may predispose to anterior capsular contraction syndrome and IOL dislocation.
