Abstract:
This is a case report of an 18-year-old male who presented with a 7-year history of diminished vision in the right eye. Ophthalmological examination revealed light perception with accurate projection of rays in both eyes, broken posterior synechiae, and a membranous calcified cataract in the right eye. The left eye showed grade 2+ aqueous cells and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). A general examination revealed cyanosis, hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, and growth retardation. Echocardiography confirmed Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Blood tests showed elevated haemoglobin and RBC count. The patient was planned for cataract surgery with PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) lens implantation and intravitreal triamcinolone acetate injection.
