Abstract

Ocular trauma is one of the leading cause of visual loss. We present a case of retropupillary iris claw lens implantation in a post-traumatic aphakic patient after 25 years of trauma. On examination it was seen that he had deep anterior chamber, iridodonesis with jet black reflex and vitreous in pupillary area. On direct and indirect ophthalmoscopy right eye details were within normal limits. The patient was posted for right eye secondary retropupillary Iris claw lens implantation. Traumatic injuries may have poorer visual prognosis but with newer management techniques we have the hope of good visual prognosis.
