Published: January 2007

We report 8 cases of blunt trauma in patients with a Verisyse phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) (AMO). Two cases resulted in dislocation of the pIOL that required repositioning; the other 6 were managed conservatively. In all cases, the outcomes were satisfactory, with no further complications. The cases represent scenarios that patients and physicians might encounter postoperatively and describe ways to manage the complication.
