Interpseudophakos intraocular lens surface opacification as a late complication of piggyback acrylic posterior chamber lens implantation

We present a case involving opacification of the apposing surfaces of 2 acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) that had been implanted in a piggyback fashion 16 months previously. Clinical observations derived from our experience with piggyback acrylic lens implantation are presented, along with a discussion of late complications of piggyback IOL implantation and recommendations.
