Post-traumatic iridodialysis, crystalline dislocation and vitreous haemorrhage: how to manage.

A 66-year-old man, while taking care of his horse, sustained a blunt, non-penetrating injury to the right side of his face, which damaged his eye. On slit lamp examination, iris dialysis and crystalline dislocation in the vitreous chamber were observed. On presentation, his best correct visual acuity was hand motion. A 23 G vitrectomy and subsequently an iris reconstruction and a glued intraocular lens implant were performed. Visual acuity reached +0.1 logMAR 1 month after surgery and remained stable after 12 months' follow-up.
