“…A similar finding was also reported by Yurdakul et al 5 However, Charan and Mathur6 reported inferior displacement and Krámar et al 7 reported superotemporal displacement of lens following blunt trauma. Subconjunctival luxation of crystalline lens is very rare in children due to elasticity of outer coats of the globe and softer crystalline lens.…”

“…[3] Another report highlights the role of UBM in the precise localization of phacocele and its utility on the surgical planning. [4] A review of literature for phacocele shows isolated case reports and only two case series of five[5] and eight cases[6] each. Both of these series highlight the clinical features and outcome.…”

Blunt ocular trauma in the elderly can result in anterior dislocation of the crystalline lens into the subconjunctival space (phacocele). Although rare, this presentation can be missed, especially if the patient presents several days after the injury and if the lid is not everted on examination. While a careful clinical examination is adequate in the diagnosis, imaging techniques can be put to use for the accurate location of the associated sclera rupture. We report three cases of post-traumatic phacocele wherein ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was compared to the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) and B-scan ultrasonography (B-scan), in order to establish the best imaging tool for this condition. We concluded, based on image quality, that UBM could be the imaging modality of choice to aid in the diagnosis of phacocele.

“…El estallido ocular suele producirse en el sector nasal superior por la proyección de la energía del impacto desde temporal, sector en el que suelen producirse los impactos con más frecuencia (5). La energía se proyecta hacia superior, posterior y nasal, impactando el globo contra la tróclea y la pared orbitaria (2)(3)(4)(5).…”

“…La energía se proyecta hacia superior, posterior y nasal, impactando el globo contra la tróclea y la pared orbitaria (2)(3)(4)(5). Normalmente la ruptura se produce a 2,5 mm y concéntrica al limbo, donde las fibras esclerales tensas y profundas se transforman en una lamela delicada de ligamento pectíneo (3).…”

RESUMENCaso clínico: Se describe el caso de una paciente que sufre estallido del globo ocular izquierdo secundario a un traumatismo de moderada intensidad. Se produjo luxación del cristalino al espacio subconjuntival nasal superior. El cristalino fue extraído y al producirse la estabilidad del cuadro se realizó vitrectomía y sutura de lente intraocular a sulcus, alcanzando una agudeza visual de 0,3. Discusión: Los traumatismos oculares son muy frecuentes y el estallido ocular suele producirse en aquellos casos que presentan patología debilitante del globo ocular o antecedentes de cirugías previas, hechos que no se presentaban en nuestro caso. A pesar de la gravedad del cuadro, la paciente alcanzó una buena función visual final.Palabras clave: Traumatismo, luxación, cristalino, espacio subconjuntival. COMUNICACIÓN CORTA ABSTRACTCase report: We present the case of a patient who suffered from rupture of her left eye due to moderate blunt trauma. The lens, which was dislocated to the nasal and superior subconjunctival space, was extracted and the wound explored and repaired; when the process had stabilized secondary vitrectomy and suture of an IOL to the sulcus were performed, achieving a final visual acuity of 0.3. Discussion: Eye trauma is common and eye rupture may occur in those patients who have undergone ocular surgery or suffer from a debilitating condition of the eye. None of these predisposing factors existed in our case. Despite the seriousness of the problem, appropriate treatment achieved good visual function (Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol 2007; 82: 641-644).
