Unusual case of dislocation of cyanoacrylate glue into the anterior chamber.

A patient with history of previous right eye penetrating keratoplasty for viral keratitis presented with an inferonasal graft melt, loose sutures and a flat anterior chamber (AC) in the same eye. B-scan ultrasound revealed 360° choroidal detachment. Cyanoacrylate adhesive and bandage contact lens were placed to restore ocular integrity. About 5 weeks after the procedure, the glue was found inside the AC with healed corneal melt. An emergency procedure was planned to remove the intraocular glue to prevent long-term toxicity. During the procedure, glue was found adherent to the intraocular lens (IOL), which necessitated an IOL exchange. Following the procedure, the eye settled well with residual scarring and an uncorrected visual acuity of 6/60, which improved to 6/18 with a pinhole. We discuss this case of late dislocation of the glue into the AC, which was managed with an IOL exchange highlighting a rare complication of corneal glueing.
