title: [Luxation of an anterior chamber lens caused by secondary serous epithelial cyst].
abstract: We report the case of a patient in whom luxation of an anterior chamber lens (implanted after extraction of a traumatic cataract) occurred due to the development of an epithelial cyst which caused decentralization of the lens and reduced visual acuity. The physiopathology of this complication of cataract surgery and the various surgical methods of treatment are discussed.
