Event Description
|
Reportedly, eight months after having an intraocular lens (iol) implanted into the right (od) eye, the patient presented with glare, glinting, and a blurry spot in the vision.The patient stated there are occasional headaches, as well as eye pain, strain, or a tugging sensation on the right side of the eye.The original implanting surgeon was unsure of the likely cause of the event stating that despite achieving 20/20 uncorrected visual acuity, the patient notes a constant temporal reflection.Surgeon¿s diagnosis was dry eye, (b)(6) dysphotopsia, and blepharitis.A successful lens exchange was performed by a second surgeon, approximately 3 years after original implant using a different model and diopter lens.In the secondary surgeon¿s opinion, the most likely cause of event is unknown, but cited patient discomfort.The patient¿s outcome is good.
