Aim of study is to analyze clinical presentation and predisposing risk factors of anterior capsular contraction following phacoemulsification and to assess challenges encountered in management. It’s a retrospective study of 20 patients with predisposing risk factors Uveitis(7), myopia(3), pseudo exfoliation(2), diabetes(3), trauma(1), both diabetes and uveitis(1), Status post phacovitrectomy(1) and no accompaniments(2). All patients were analyzed for clinical presentation by detail history and slit lamp examination. YAG laser capsulotomy or surgical excision of phimosis was done and various challenges encountered in management were detailed. The results of surgical excision are encouraging with good anatomical & functional results.

Aim of this presentation is to make clinicians aware of this entity especially in high risk patients like uveitis and small pupil, so that these consequences can be well anticipated and by proper care complications of phimosis is obviated.High index of suspicion and early treatment in other eye of phimosis
