title: Intraocular lens exchange technique for an opacified bag-in-the-lens.
abstract: We describe the intraocular lens (IOL) exchange technique that is specific to the bag-in-the-lens IOL. The subsequent IOL analysis displayed a deep granular opacification consisting predominantly of calcium and phosphates that has been described in hydrophilic IOLs.
