| Summary: | Capsular bag distention syndrome (CBDS) is one of the rare causes of decrease in vision following cataract surgery with signs such as a shallower anterior chamber, unexpected myopic vision, and the build-up of fluid between the implanted lens and the posterior capsule. We report a patient with late onset diminution of vision, following uneventful phacoemulsification with continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) and in-the-bag intra ocular lens (IOL) implantation: Post capsular bag lavage the CBDS resolved immediately with no complications and the vision improved to 6/9 after 2 weeks post op. Our case highlights the safety and efficacy of capsular bag lavage technique. |
