    Marginal corneal ulcers can develop after cataract surgery. Early detection and conservative management are often successful for these post-operative complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Complications

    Background:

    • Intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) is a surgical procedure for removing the lens.
    • Complications following cataract surgery require careful monitoring and management.

    Observation:

    • Four cases of marginal corneal ulceration were observed after uncomplicated ICCE.
    • Ulcers typically manifested within three months post-surgery and were located anterior to the limbal incision.

    Findings:

    • The corneal ulcers were progressive in nature.
    • Conservative management achieved success in three out of four patients.
    • One patient showed resistance to both medical and surgical interventions, including a recurrence.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the potential for marginal corneal ulceration as a delayed complication of ICCE.

  • Emphasizes the efficacy of conservative treatment for most cases.
  • Suggests the need for vigilance in monitoring for corneal complications post-cataract surgery.
