A 60-year-old woman presented to the Emergency Department with a 2-week history of
blurry vision in her left eye after left ocular contusion by a chair. The uncorrected
visual acuity in the left eye was 20/400. The left eye examination by slit lamp microscope
with retro-illumination technique showed crystalline lens dislocation into the anterior
chamber with golden ring sign and posterior capsular contraction (Figures 1A and 1B). Fundus examination of the left eye revealed mild vitreous hemorrhage. The anterior
segment examination and fundus examination of the right eye were unremarkable. Under
the diagnosis of crystalline lens dislocation into the anterior chamber with vitreous
hemorrhage in the left eye, the patient underwent intracapsular lens extraction and
pars plana vitrectomy successfully.
