Abstract
Differential diagnosis of lens dislocation includes various ocular and systemic diseases, as well as a history of trauma. The purpose of this study is to report cases of lens dislocation caused by family violence, a social problem that is increasing worldwide. Case 1: a 70-year-old female with narrow anterior chamber and high intraocular pressure in her left eye due to lens dislocation was referred to our hospital after her husband had beaten her with a fist. She explained to the previous doctor that she had hit her eye by herself. Case 2: a 99-year-old female with in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation in her left eye 10 years after receiving cataract surgery was referred to our hospital. The following year, she was referred to our hospital because the same incident occurred in her right eye. She explained to the previous doctor that she had fallen but was found to be due to family violence. Case 3: a 62-year-old female suffered dislocation of an IOL inserted in her left eye 10 years previously. While her explanation to the referring doctor was that she tumbled and fell, further inquiry revealed family violence to be the cause. In conclusion, lens dislocation may be caused by family violence despite a conflicting initial clinical history.
