Capsular bag distension syndrome (CBDS) is a rare complication of cataract surgery due to collection of fluid behind the intraocular lens (IOL). Nd:Yag laser capsulotomy is commonly performed to release the fluid collection; however, the potential risk of infection and inflammation has led to adaptation of numerous surgical procedures. Clinical examination in an established case of CBDS reveals opalescent fluid behind the IOL with ballooning of the posterior capsule, which has different reflectivity on optical coherence tomography. However, the exact optical properties of this fluid are still unknown. A case of delayed CBDS with induced myopia due to change in IOL position because of fluid collection behind the IOL is presented.
囊袋膨胀综合征 (CBDS) 是白内障手术后的一种罕见并发症，由于眼内人工晶状体 (IOL) 后液体积聚所致。通常采用 Nd:Yag 激光囊膜切开术释放积液；然而，潜在的感染和炎症风险导致了多种手术方法的适应性。在 CBDS 的既定病例中，临床检查显示 IOL 后有不透明的液体，后囊袋膨胀，其在光学相干断层扫描上有不同的反射率。然而，这种液体的确切光学性质仍不清楚。本文报告了一例因 IOL 后积液导致 IOL 位置改变引起的迟发性 CBDS 并导致近视的病例。
