Lens Subluxation Following Trivial Trauma

Abstract

Trauma is the main cause of subluxation or dislocation of the lens followed by ocular surgery and spontaneous dislocation due to hypermature cataract. Other causes are Marfan’s, Homocystinuria, Ehler Danlos syndrome and pseudoexfoliation. We report a case of dislocated lens by a trivial trauma with a wooden stick which was left unattended unless patient noticed decreased vision in that eye.
