In her right eye, we performed extraction of the microspheric lens with irrigation- aspiration (I/A), and implantation of a capsular tension ring and a hydrophobic acrylic foldable intraocular lens after posterior capsulorhexis were performed with pars plana intervention with 25-gauge vitrectomy and anterior vitrectomy. The same surgical procedures were performed for the left eye, except that Cionni capsule tension ring was used. Thus, pupillary block and secondary angle-closure glaucoma risk were eliminated and high myopic refractive error due to microspherophakia was corrected.
