Abstract

Abstract

Purpose:
To analyze the outcomes of foldable capsular vitreous body injected in a
post-traumatic phthysical eye.

Case
presentation: A 19 year old male patient presented to ophthalmology department
with left post-traumatic phthisical eye , who had previously undergone
corneoscleral tear repair due to a penetrating trauma to his left eye one year
back. On ocular examination , there is a corneo scleral scar mark, aniridia ,
aphakia and retina incarcerated in the scar. He was injected with a foldable
capuslar vitreous body.

Conclusion:
Our case report of foldable capsular vitreous body gives an excellent cosmesis
for the physical eye.
