Abstract:
We report a case of anterior capsule tear that was closed spontaneously by fibrotic tissue during the postoperative period. The tear was inadvertently created during intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in the capsular bag. The IOL remained stable in the postoperative period, with excellent centration and no compromise in vision.
