Abstract: | We report a case of progressive capsule membrane growth 4 months after neodymium:YAG capsulotomy for posterior capsule opacification. The clinical picture closely resembled epithelial ingrowth, but histology proved otherwise. Multiple operations were required to control glaucoma and capsule proliferation. However, the patient's visual potential was limited by corneal decompensation and glaucomatous damage.
