An 80-year-old woman with corticonuclear cataract had cataract extraction by bimanual microphacoemulsification and in-the-bag implantation of the Akreos MI60 (Bausch & Lomb) intraocular lens (IOL). After 6 months, a complete capsulorhexis phimosis developed and surgery was performed to open and reduce the phimosis, with complete functional recovery. In the fellow pseudophakic eye, an acrylic hydrophobic Acri. Smart 48S (Acri.Tec) IOL had been implanted without complications. We conclude that a capsulorhexis phimosis may occur a few months after uneventful cataract surgery and in-the-bag implantation of the Akreos MI60 IOL.

Anterior capsular contraction syndrome is an uncommon but well-known complication associated with continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis performed during cataract surgery. It remains asymptomatic unless the constriction progresses to involve the visual axis or causes late intraocular lens-related complications. A male patient in his 50s presented with severely decreased vision in his right eye 2 years after uneventful cataract surgery.
