Abstract

A turbid white fluid was noticed in the retrolental space in the right eye of a 57-year-old male who had undergone cataract surgery 4 years ago. With clinical suspicion of capsular block syndrome (CBS), a swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-ASOCT) was conducted. Hyperreflective echo was detected between the posterior surface of the intraocular lens and the posterior capsule. Prompt relief from CBS was achieved through Nd: YAG laser treatment. The advent of SS-ASOCT allows rapid and detailed assessment of the eye’s anterior segment owing to its deeper ocular tissue penetration and better axial resolution within a few seconds.
