“…Several reports are available about secondary glaucoma in IOL-implanted eyes [5]. Pupillary block by IOL is known to be a cause of a sudden increase in IOP [4]. It was also reported that an anterior shift of the capsular tension ring-IOL complex caused closure of the anterior chamber angle and an increase of IOP [7].…”

“…Although this complication occurs frequently in eyes with an out-of-the-bag IOL with a partially damaged lens capsule, weakness or rupture of Zinn's zonule could cause displacement of the capsular bag that contains an IOL [2,3]. Ocular hypertension might be caused by pupillary block due to adhesion of the IOL to the iris [4], dislocation of an out-of-the-bag IOL [5], and vitreous body prolapse after YAG laser posterior capsulotomy for secondary cataract in patients with an in-the-bag IOL [6].…”

“…Наличие задних синехий в отдаленном послеопера-ционном периоде (через пять лет) может спровоциро-вать развитие вторичной закрытоугольной глаукомы [23,24]. Кроме того, бóльшая продолжительность одно-моментного хирургического вмешательства с развитием наиболее выраженного послеоперационного воспали-тельного процесса также может быть ассоциирована с формированием синехий [19,25].…”
