Abstract
PURPOSE: to present the signs, symptoms and management of two cases of traumatic dislocation of implantable collamer lens (ICL) after direct blunt trauma. OBSERVATIONS: at presentation, we noted diffuse conjunctival hyperemia, and clear cornea in the right eye of the first patient. The anterior chamber showed +2 pigmented cells, a distorted, nasally peaked pupil with one-foot plate in front of the iris. The second case had a dislocation of the inferonasal footplate into the anterior chamber without endothelial touch. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Dislocation of an implantable collamer lens (ICL) is rare but carries the risk of long-term complications, particularly after trauma. Ophthalmologists should identify dislocation and timely intervention can mitigate the risk of complications.ICL dislocation can be vision threatening.
