| description | We report a case of anterior megalophthalmos and complicated cataract, with apparently smaller lens in both eyes. The right eye had spontaneous retinal detachment. The child underwent cataract surgery in both the eyes with retinal detachment surgery in the right eye. Due to small size of the lenticular bag, a downsized customized intraocular lens (IOL) was implanted. Postoperatively, the IOL was well centered with ambulatory vision till 3 years of follow-up. This case describes this rare disorder and its association with apparently small-sized lens and discusses the course of its management, highlighting the visual rehabilitation with customization of IOLs. |
