Abstract

Several cases of intraocular lens (IOL) opacification have been reported in the past few years following intraocular injection of gas or air in corneal and vitreoretinal surgery. The opacity can be associated with severe reduction in patients’ quality of vision which might necessitate IOL exchange. We report a short case series, an observational study, of IOL opacification following three cases of intracameral air injection in endothelial keratoplasty (EK), a triple procedure (cataract surgery with EK) and Descemet’s membrane detachment (DMD) repair post cataract surgery.
