Intraocular lens opacification: An uncommon case scenario
Intraocular lens (IOL) opacification is a rare complication of cataract surgery. It can cause significant deterioration of visual performance. We report a case of a 50-year-old female with right eye (RE) primary IOL opacification, who presented to us 6 months after cataract surgery with whole IOL opacification. The patient was managed by RE IOL exchange. The purpose of this case report is to spread awareness about this complication related to cataract surgery and provide insight into its management.
