It was reported after an intraocular lens (iol) was implanted into the right (od) eye, the surgeon noticed a scratch at the center of the optic.The incision was enlarged to 3.0mm to explant the iol.A back up iol of the same model and diopter power was successfully implanted intraoperatively.Two sutures were used.The patient did not notice a decrease in vision.In the surgeon's opinion, the most likely cause of the event is due to folding/unfolding of the lens, however the surgeon indicated there was no difficulty in loading or injecting the lens.The patient's outcome is good.
