A posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) dislocated into the subconjunctival space following a concussion injury in a 24-year-old man who had gained good visual acuity following extracapsular cataract extraction and PC-IOL implantation for a steroid-induced cataract. Except for long-term use of topical steroid therapy for vernal catarrh, the patient had no systemic or ocular predisposing factors for wound dehiscence. Given the risk of endophthalmitis, the PC-IOL was removed and anterior vitrectomy was performed on an emergency basis. To our knowledge, this is the second documented case of a subconjunctivally dislocated PC-IOL.
