Abstract
Clinically, IOL schisis was easily differentiated from cases of IOL opacification due to calcification. The clinical implication was not uniform, ranging from no symptoms to great visual disturbance leading to explantation of the IOL. The cause of this complication remains unclear. A possible explanation is the impact of solvent-induced tensile stress on the IOL optic material during the manufacturing process.
