The patient had a history of trabeculectomy in his right eye 7 years ago. A free floating cyst was observed in the anterior chamber in biomicroscopic evaluation. The cyst was lighter than the humor aqueous in specific gravity and was changing position with the head movements. The cyst was also evaluated using the ultrasound biomicroscopy. We obseved that the cyst disappeared spontaneously during the follow up. Keywords : Anterior chamber, free floating cyst, ultrasound biomicroscope
