  • Title: Triple procedure in posterior segment intraocular foreign body.
    Author: Azad R, Sharma YR, Mitra S, Pai A.
    Journal: Indian J Ophthalmol; 1998 Jun; 46(2):91-2. PubMed ID: 9847481.
    Abstract:
    Three patients with intraocular foreign bodies and traumatic cataracts underwent single stage pars plana lensectomy with anterior capsule preservation, vitrectomy, removal of the foreign body, and intraocular lens implantation. The preserved anterior capsule permitted support for the placement of an intraocular lens in the posterior chamber in the ciliary sulcus. The procedure enabled early visual rehabilitation. This procedure seems useful in the management of posterior segment intraocular foreign body associated with cataract.
