Abstract

Calcification of a hydrophilic intraocular lens (IOL) is a rare complication. We report on the analysis of an opacified IOL, which was explanted 2 years after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), using light and scanning electron microscopy, X‑ray spectroscopy and investigations on the optical bench.
