The aim of this report is to describe an unusual case of cataractous lens extrusion through a diseased cornea in the absence of any history of trauma or surgery.
An elderly female with a history of blepharitis, corneal vascularization, and scarring presented with foreign body sensation, mild ocular pain, and a brunescent cataractous lens extruding through an area of corneal melt of the right eye after being lost to follow-up. The patient was operated urgently and then referred to a specialized eye hospital for further management.
In the setting of social neglect and poor compliance to treatment and appointments, consequences of common ophthalmic conditions can lead to serious vision and organ-threatening complications. These might require prompt medical and surgical attention.
