Pupillary capture of a posterior chamber lens following convulsive seizures.

Total pupillary capture of the optic of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) occurred over 1 year after implantation, following severe, convulsive seizures. We suggest that the generalized seizures and associated extraocular muscle contractures created significantly elevated vitreous pressure, which caused anterior displacement of the IOL. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of late pupillary capture of a PC-IOL following severe, convulsive seizures.
