ABSTRACT
An intralenticular foreign body is a rare condition, but the prevalence is about 5% of all intraocular foreign bodies and it can result in serious complications. We managed them according to the size, location, material type and the risk of infection. This article reported a 51year-old patient with an intralenticular metal foreign body in the left eye, who underwent phacoemulsification lens extraction with removal of the intralenticular foreign body and insertion of a posterior chamber intraocular lens. The visual outcome was good.
