Abstract
We present 2 cases of calcification of posterior chamber intraocular lenses (IOLs) that presented to the outpatient department of our institute with diminution of vision a few months after successful cataract surgery. Intraocular lens exchange with a hydrophobic IOL was performed in both cases, resulting in a restoration of vision.
