Abstract
ABSTRACT Purpose: To report the first case of uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema (UGH) syndrome post implantable collamer lens (ICL). Methods: Case report Results: A 41-year-old female presented to our clinic complaining of bilateral eye pain and redness for two weeks. Her past medical history was significant for ICL, in both eyes and multiple sclerosis controlled with treatment. She had a long-standing history of bilateral recurrent uveitis and glaucoma. Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed several sulcus cysts displacing the ICLs haptic into the ciliary body, leading to iris abrasion and uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema syndrome. Conclusion: We present the first published case worldwide about UGH syndrome secondary to ICL. This is an unusual complication, and measures can be taken to avoid it. This provides evidence of the importance of postoperative follow-up by the surgeon and appropriate work-up when such cases are suspected.
