  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 62-year-old male was referred to us for impaired vision in his right eye. He had been hit by a foreign body in his right eye while cutting an iron plate 37 years before. He had been treated for elevated intraocular pressure by the referring physician. His visual acuity was 0.01 right. The affected eye showed cataract and increased pigmentation in the iris and chamber angle. Computed tomography showed a foreign body in the pars plana of the ciliary body. The surgically removed foreign body proved to be a ferrous piece with no surrounding membrane. There was a high content of iron ion in the aqueous. The resected iris tissue showed ferrous deposit. He regained visual acuity of 1.5 after cataract surgery with normal fundus findings and normal electroretinographic responses. This case illustrates that retinal functions may remain intact after longstanding intraocular noncapsulated ferrous material.
