title: Intraocular lens dislocation in the bag.
abstract: We report a case in which an intraocular lens dislocated entirely within the capsular bag. The patient was myopic with a large anterior segment. A standard 5 mm x 6 mm phaco profile intraocular lens was found to be completely dislocated on the fifth postoperative day. The dislocated lens was replaced with another posterior chamber intraocular lens sutured at the ciliary sulcus.
