Capsulorhexis-related lacteocrumenasia.
Three patients who presented with a milky fluid in the space between the posterior surface of implanted intraocular lens (IOL) and the anterior surface of the distended posterior capsular bag are described. The patients were followed and were noted to have changes in their benign course after several years. The occurrence of this milky-fluid-filled capsular bag is extremely uncommon and is difficult to perceive if the observer is not looking for it.
