Large Capsulorhexis Related Uveitis-Glaucoma-Hyphema Syndrome Managed by Intraocular Lens Implant Exchange and Gonioscopy Assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy.

Conclusion: With respect to the increasing prevalence of intracapsular single-piece IOL implantation, it is important to recognize UGHS and thus fashion proper sized capsulorhexis to prevent this vision threatening complication. GATT may be considered to be one of the glaucoma surgeries combined with the IOL surgical procedures in UGHS.
