Pupillary block due to reverse implantation of a sulcus intraocular lens.
JCRS Online Case Reports 2016 August
An 88-year-old woman with a history of complicated cataract extraction by phacoemulsification with sulcus intraocular lens (IOL) placement developed pseudophakic pupillary block after reverse implantation of the IOL. In the postoperative period, she had persistently elevated intraocular pressures (IOP) and was diagnosed with chronic angle-closure glaucoma that was treated medically. She presented 5 years later with acute pupillary block. The diagnosis of reverse IOL implantation was confirmed by ultrasound biomicroscopy. An IOL repositioning, anterior synechialysis, and Baerveldt tube shunt placement led to resolution of the pupillary block and a well-controlled IOP.
