Abstract
We describe a technique for metallic intralenticular foreign body (ILFB) removal in a patient in whom there was no or minimal cataract formation or other complications. This technique required creating two corneal small incisions around the ILFB for inserting iris retractors to expose the ILFB. At the foreign body position, a clear corneal incision was made, and then the ILFB was removed with minimal manipulation by an intraocular magnet without complications. Because most occupational traumas occur in young people, this technique avoids the adverse outcomes of lens extraction in this age group.
