title: [Congenital cerulean cataract--case report].
abstract: We present the case of a patient who was operated for cerulean cataract one year ago and who developed light-blue posterior capsule opacifications similar to that of the initial cataract. This case suggests that the mechanism of the light-blue color formation in the cerulean cataract was also present in the lens epithelial cells, forming the posterior capsule opacity.
