Abstract

Two cases of early capsular distension syndrome (CDS) are presented, the first occurred after sulcus implantation of a 12.0 mm poly(methyl methacrytatel IOL (5.0 mm optic, 10 degree anterior angulation). The second case occurred after sulcus implantation of a foldable silicone IOL with optic capture (6.0 mm optic, no anterior angulation). Both cases resolved after a neodymium:YAG laser anterior capsulotomy. Cataract surgeons should be aware of the possibility of CDS after sulcus implantation of an IOL in the presence of an intact capsulorhexis and posterior capsule. A small capsulorhexis and in-the-bag capture of the IOL optic are major predisposing factors in this setting. © 2000 ASCRS and ESCRS.
