Abstract
A rare case of total aniridia and vitreous hemorrhage 2 months after intraocular lens (IOL) exchange through a 6.0 mm limbal incision using a scleral fixation technique in a patient denying any trauma is presented. Extrusion of iris tissue in pseudophakic patients has been reported before, usually associated with globe rupture or dehiscence of corneal or scleral wounds, but to the authors’ knowledge, this is the first reported case of complete iridodialysis occurring after implantation of a scleral-fixated IOL with no obvious history of trauma. The uprooting mechanism of the iris and its disappearance from the eye are discussed.
