title: Erythropsia revisited.
abstract: We report a case of unilateral erythropsia lasting 1 week that occurred 18 years after cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. The unaffected eye was pseudophakic and had an IOL with ultraviolet (UV) light protection; the affected eye had an IOL without UV light protection.
