- Description
- A 75-year-old female with a history of cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation 20 years ago presented with progressive visual loss. On slit lamp examination, opaque material was found in the capsular bag behind the intraocular lens. Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed hyperechoic material contained in the temporal-posterior sector of the capsular bag corresponding to lacteocrumenasia.
