Abstract

We report the first case of opacification of the BioComFold 92S (Morcher GmbH) intraocular lens. The opacification pattern is unique, presenting mainly in the periphery of the optic and the haptics of the lens, leaving the central portion of the optic clear. The clinical course of this opacification pattern is not observed typically with other hydrophilic acrylic lens designs and requires further study.
