title: Management of posteriorly dislocated endocapsular tension ring and intraocular lens complex.
abstract: We report a case of late posteriorly dislocated endocapsular tension ring (ECR) and intraocular lens (IOL) complex into the vitreous cavity that behaved as a single 13 mm disc. A 3-port pars plana vitrectomy was performed, and perfluorocarbon liquid was used to retrieve the ECR-IOL complex to the retropupillary area. A 3-point scleral fixation was performed to reposition the inseparable ECR-IOL complex.
