An article was received that cited a case study that found patient implanted with a 12.1mm implantable collamer lens, -6.00 diopter in the patients right eye (od).At one day post-operative, the patient suffered painful eye.The patient had severe corneal edema.Slit-lamp examination showed irido-corneal contact at temporal mid-periphery, shallow anterior chamber with central vaulting of icl, partial obstruction of peripheral iridotomy, intraocular pressure was not measured but the eye was very firm.Oral and systematic antiglaucoma medications including intravenous (iv) mannitol 20% were administered.Additional laser procedure to reopen peripheral iridotomy was performed.An ultrasound biomicroscopy (ubm) showed a temporal posterior iris cyst at 8 o'clock, which was pushing the piol-iris complex forward causing irido-corneal angle closure.Patient was readmitted to surgery for repositioning of the icl.The next day, patient did not complain of severe ocular pain.Corneal edema improved markedly and iop was 20 mmhg.At 1 month follow-up visit, ucva was 0.9 bilaterally.Corneal edema disappeared and iop was 20 mmhg.The lens remained implanted.
