RATIONALE: Spontaneous absorption of lenses or cataracts is rare. However, lens capsule attachment to the endothelium combined with corneal decompensation can still occur.
PATIENT CONCERNS: An 81-year-old male presented with left eye pain and bulbar conjunctival injection for 6 months. Diffuse corneal edema and inferior bullous lesions were observed by slit-lamp microscopy. Following examination with swept-source optical coherence tomography, we could clearly identify a membrane structure adherent to the corneal endothelium, as well as a lens not in situ. In vivo confocal microscopy found decreased corneal endothelial density of 745 ± 46 cells per mm in the left eye.
DIAGNOSIS: Lens dislocation and spontaneous absorption, combined with corneal decompensation were diagnosed.
INTERVENTIONS: Surgical removal of the membrane structure combined with anterior vitrectomy was performed.
OUTCOMES: The patient's symptoms were partly relieved. However, the corneal endothelial decompensation could not be entirely reversed. In vivo confocal microscopy verified that corneal endothelium was in situ and the density was not significantly changed in the left eye.
LESSONS: This case study reports a rare dislocation and spontaneous absorption of lens without any trauma or subsequent surgery. Moreover, it demonstrates corneal endothelial decompensation due to the lens capsule adhering to the corneal endothelium. Timely intervention is required to remove the dislocated lens and prevent complications.
